Super good experience and very good care from Jonathan as a guide and from the agency at all times. In addition to climbing the colorful mountain we went to the red valley, super recommended.

It was a great experience. The guide has given us an optimal service from the pickup and a very good accompaniment the whole excursion. The restaurant breakfast and food also very good.
Tour was good - great views, a bit of exercise, entertaining guide. Would give 5 stars except we were not informed of the change in pick-up time 45 minutes later than originally scheduled).
Very good experience and tour. The guide Wally was very attentive, positive and energetic. It was quite a walk, but it was worth it and the included meals were good too.
Agradecemos mucho tu opinión. Fue un placer para nosotros formar parte de esta aventura. Todo el equipo de Machu Picchu Journey está muy contento con su opinión, nos motiva a seguir trabajando para brindar este tipo de experiencias Hasta la próxima.
Very entertaining departure, including both managers (guide and driver) very friendly and careful at all times. By the chosen places (restaurant and route) the children could enjoy close to the llamas and alpacas.

This tour was Great value for what it included and that’s all we liked about the tour. Our guide, Frankie, was not the best guide we’ve had for the trip. Our tour group consisted of primarily Spanish speakers and my fiancé and I were the only ones who spoke English. He explained one thing in the beginning in English but the rest of the time he explained everything in Spanish. With my limited Spanish, I caught a few words and was able to ask for clarification. For example, he explained, in Spanish, to us about the horse rental. I knew I wanted to rent a horse and had I not known the Spanish word for horse, we would have missed it. He told us the cost was 90 soles but I think that was the cost for a round trip as the horse back to the bus area was 60 soles. He also told us we had to be back at the bus at 11:30am. We disembarked the horses just before the top at 10am and decided to walk back to the bus. We bumped into him on our walk back and he confirmed that the time to be back at the bus was 11:30am. Being that the altitude made it very difficult for me to move my legs and breathe, we thought we’d walk back to the bus because we only had an hour and a half. The walk back was much more difficult than anticipated and it really did take us the entire hour and a half. But everyone did not come back to the bus until maybe 12:30pm. Had we known we had an extra hour we might have tried to make a better effort to make our way to the top where the beautiful view was. We asked Franky about the altitude medications and he said he’d help us locate them at the market but he never did. We thought we’d be fine with just cocoa tea but the altitude was just a lot to deal with. He also did not explain anything about the history or discovery about the Rainbow Mountains. Or maybe he did explain it in Spanish and we just didn’t understand him. He has a lot of maturing to do as a tour guide if he wants to make good money in the industry.
I want thank to CHULLOS TRAVEL PERU agency for giving us one the best ever service and professionalism job and please make sure to have one the bes ever experience close to you wife, you guys were always there and I highly recommend for such a service quality you gave us and a good response of the tour guide.
We went with a guide named Edwin, Amazing Service, Very Friendly, explained everything to us perfectly. Very well organized
Last month, I did a tour to Rainbow Mountain with Machu Picchu Journey travel Agency. Well, it started earlier in the morning, but I should say the car was pretty nice. I traveled with comfort. We had our breakfast and buffet lunch in a restaurant, the food was divine, we had a great chef. Once we arrived at the mountain, we started walking, the Tour guide was encouraging us to keep going until we did it. Then he explained to us why it has its peculiar color. The best thing was that the workers accompanying us were really friendly and absolved every question we had. I will surely go again with the same agency
Excellent! An impressive mental and natural connection, guide Edwin rooms exceptional and very pending ascent and descent of the mountain, breakfast and delicious lunch 🙌🏽✨
