Rainbow Mountain is an incredible experience. Absolutely, one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide, Luz, was very knowledgeable and helpful, and ensured that we made it to the top, despite the challenges of hiking at 15,000 feet elevation!
Luz is a nice lady with a positive minset, and as a guide, she provides excellent service. Rainbow Mountain Tour provides needed tools, unlike with the Salkantay tour ..I was scam.
This was the perfect day!!! Rhonald made sure everything went smoothly and we had the best time and I can’t thank Rhonald enough! The timing was excellent, food (breakfast and lunch) was delicious, and had a lot of time to enjoy the hike, the views and take pictures before it got too crowded. Rhonald made sure we were feeling good and enjoying the whole time, I absolutely recommend this tour!
This was one of the very best tours I’ve ever been on - Rhonald made sure we had the perfect day. The timing of everything was excellent, breakfast and lunch were delicious, and Rhonald made sure we were feeling good the whole time and had plenty of time to enjoy the views and take pictures. Absolutely recommend!!!
I had doubts about the trip but from the first moment they contacted me and gave me all the necessary information. I loved the place and I thank the guide Juan Carlos for having a lot of patience on the walk and encouraging me to get there
Wow an incredible adventure worthy of 10 stars. Our guide Victor helped us make the time on rainbow mountain very special with a blessing to pachamama and extra pics to remeber the trek. I would absolutely do this again and I would use crossover tours for all my Peru experiences.
What an amazing day! Victor, our guide was so present, helpful and great to talk to. Rainbow mountain is surreal and beautiful and this guiding company made it that much more spectacular. Seamless, reliable pickup from our hotels, delicious breakfast and lunch included. Organized and perfect day with great people. Thank you!
Luz is AMAZINGGG and subtly funny too! We were a group of 7 visiting from US. Our trip was on Saturday. She came to the hotel to give us a briefing and preparation tips for the hike/trek. She was very thorough with planning. We had a Van ready at 5 am sharp right outside our hotel as planned. She had arranged breakfast for us at a very unique private site in Cusipata. Real PERU meal and experience. At the start of the hike, she provided everybody with walking sticks and ‘agua de Floridas! some members were slow, she stayed with the slowest one and made sure everyone was safe. When at the top, views are breathtaking and she explained in detail about the formation and colors of Rainbow mountain. One of our friends developed Altitude sickness and she had portable Oxygen cylinders and it helped tremendously. Lunch was again at the same place and just fantastic! We can’t rave enough about her and she has a charm about her that is so likeable! We highly recommend her if you are visiting the area!
Luz and Yaritza were great guides, supportive and encouraging. Both were great with conversation as we made the hike. Breakfast and lunch were delicious at a local spot on the way. Leaving early was totally worth it as we beat the crowd to the mountain top. Pachamama ceremony at end was great.
