Rainbow mountain was magical and amazing. I rented a horse to the base, a motorcycle can also be rented (your a passenger) You have to trek the rest of the way but be prepared for 16,446 elevation. There is a first aid station and they are quick to respond to any difficulties.

I booked a private tour of Rainbow Mountain with Kantu tours. It was amazing! Carlos had the best energy and you can tell how much he loves what he does. He was even picking up trash we saw along the route and agreed to go later in the day with me so we could avoid the larger group tours. There were maybe 10 other people on the mountain when we went! It was perfect. He helped me take photos and had the best attitude during the hike. The pickup was on time and our driver was great as well. Thank you Kantu Tours!!

The tour was really nice. Aníbal really took care of us. My cousin had Asma so I was worried about him but Anibal was always look out for him. Very prepare and responsable person and on top of that he took good pictures of us. I would recommend him to anyone specially if they are scare of the altitude he was always checking on my family.
I did the ATV tour with Kantu and it was incredible. Such a fun and easy ride up to the iconic Rainbow Mountain, in less than 10 minutes, we were up there enjoying the breathtaking views, so it is a very good option for those who wants to visit de mountain but don't wanna do the hike. Besides that, the breakfast and lunch were very delicious and the staff were very nice!
This experience was all the better with our guide Anibal who put us at ease during the ascent and discovery of these breathtaking landscapes!
Merci beaucoup pour votre gentil message ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez vécu une si belle expérience en compagnie d’Anibal.
