I would definitely recommend this trip for those who are seeking adventure! Each day we say different cities and sites (Huacachina Desert, Nazca Lines, Arequipa, Puno/Lake Titicaca, Cusco, Machu Picchu, and Rainbow Mountain), which are totally the experiences. The only downsides of the trip were the overnight bus due to its discomfort of trying to rest as well as the bumpy roads whenever I had to use the toilet on the bus. Also, make sure to bring enough medical supplements with you and buy enough coca supplements (mints, candies, leaves, tea) to adjust to the altitude or any higher elevations! I did get some headaches and dizziness, but that's kinda normal and to be expected.
Hike, bike, raft and paddle your way through the ancient sites and natural landscapes of Peru – home of the Incas. Tick Machu Picchu off your bucket list – one of the famed Seven Wonders of the World – with trekking and train options suitable for all levels. Go on a mountain biking experience from Cusco to Pisac, passing by rivers, fertile valleys and archaeological sites. Stand-up paddleboard along the serene waters of Piuray Lake, surrounded by the mountains. Raft through Grade 2 and 3 rapids on the Urubamba River in Ollantaytambo and hike to lookout points high above sea level overlooking the multicultural cities of diverse Peru – this is an adventure for the active, the curious and the adventurous!

Outside of Cusco lies a truly magical landscape of colored mountains and sweeping valleys in the Andes. While Rainbow Mountain (Vinicunca) has gained a lot of fame among travelers, thereby receiving hundreds of visitors on a daily basis, few travelers realize that there are multiple rainbow mountains dotting this other-worldly landscape.
Be part of this off-the-beaten-track experience and travel to Palcoyo during this day trip. Starting from the Main Square of Cusco, we will take you to Palcoyo where you can take pictures and enjoy this otherworldly landscape before it is time to travel back to the city.
Although not as popular as Vinicunca, Palcoyo, discovered only in 2018, is very similar to the well-known mountain. And since few travelers know about this, you can be assured of encountering fewer tourists when you are hiking through its landscape.
Get ready for a once-in-a-lifetime experience that fuses the best of two legendary treks into one epic journey. Begin with the awe-inspiring Lares Trek, where vibrant Quechua communities, steaming natural hot springs, and sky-high mountain passes set the stage for adventure. Then dive straight into the magic of the Inca Trail Express, hiking through lush cloud forests and ancient stone paths before your triumphant arrival at Machu Picchu through the iconic Sun Gate, just as the Incas did centuries ago.
This isn’t just a trek. It’s a soul-stirring expedition through time, culture, and jaw-dropping scenery. Lose yourself in the Andes, find yourself in the heart of history.
Two epic trails. One unforgettable journey. Are you in?

There are more than one colorful mountains around Cusco. Although not as well known as Vinicunca, Palccoyo Rainbow Mountain is an incredible natural landmark, a mountain splashed with stripes of different colors just like its more famous sibling. Book with us and get the chance to visit this less crowded but equally beautiful alternative to Vinicunca.
We will pick you up from your accommodation in Peru early in the morning and drive you south of Cusco. Travel for approximately two hours until you reach Cusipata, where you will have your breakfast. Your journey continues through the Cusco-Puno Road to Combapata, where we will take a detour along the left bank of the Salka River (it is a dirt road from this point on). Enjoy beautiful high Andean landscapes as the journey continues. You might even spot herds of alpaca and llamas if you are lucky. Reach Palccoyo after one more hour on the road.
The view of a colorful mountain strikes you right at the parking lot. You have ten minutes to get ready before we start walking. It takes a short, 40-minute hike to reach the main viewpoint from where you can see three colorful mountains as well as a valley swathed in red. Looming in the background is the mighty Ausangate Mountain.
You also have the option to take a short, 15-minute walk to the nearby stone forest from where the views are even more impressive.
Spend sometime admiring the beauty of the mountains before it is time to return. Take the same route back to Cusipata, where a delicious buffet lunch will be provided. Continue your journey to Cusco with the aim to reach the city by 6:00 pm. We will drop you off at your hotel on arrival in the city.
This full-day excursion takes you trekking along one of the most spectacular stretches of the Salkantay Trail to the turquoise glacial lagoon of Humantay. An active escape from the city, this day tour is a perfect way to soak in the views of the Andes and to breathe the clean mountain air.

The trip was really good with lots of standout places and experiences. Our trip manager was brilliant. He was friendly and knowledgeable and made everything easy. Some of the accommodation wasn’t the best (poor showers, uncomfortable beds, no safety lock box, no elevator) but for the most part acceptable.
