Amazing Experience with Jose
Jenna_A
, Oct 2021
We had a great experience visiting Rainbow Mountain with Jose as our guide. We left at 5 am, took a private car for a few hours, stopped for a breakfast buffet (also got a lunch buffet on the way back), and continued on our way to Rainbow Mountain. Jose provided an anti-altitude spray that seemed to work because we never experienced any sickness. We opted to ride horses to the base of the mountain instead of hike, which in my opinion was a lot more fun. We were also among the first 10 people at the top of Rainbow Mountain! I Jose gave us the full history of the mountain and brought such great energy the entire time. He also took a ton of photos for us in many different spots, which was very much appreciated. There was something intimate about visiting this special place with just Jose as our guide, avoiding the massive crowds and tour buses. Couldn’t recommend this excursion enough!

Jose was an incredible guide. He was very friendly and we had some good laughs along the way. We had a WONDERFUL hike with him! The restaurant was also a treat- good food and friendly service. The hike can be challenging, but this tour is a must!!! The beauty of Rainbow Mountain and the Red Valley are breathtaking!!!

Definitely Worth It

Very worth this tour as it’s included breakfast and lunch too. You can choose to pay extra for the horse ride or not. As someone might love to hike but not for us. Very responsive and informative guide as well as experienced driver provided. We departed at 4:30am in order to get the best weather for the Rainbow Mountains view. We back to Cusco about 3pm.

Decent tour but weather is important
James_H
, Mar 2020
Solid tour, it's pretty much buying a private taxi to take you to the base of the mountain. You will have 1 stop for breakfast along the way. Its 1.5 hrs of paved road and 1.5 hrs of dirt. We then hiked for 1.5 hrs in very then air and muddy conditions. Arrived to the summit in a snowstorm. Needless to say, there was no seeing the rainbow color on the mountain as its was wet and half covered in snow. I did enjoy looking at the pebbles and creeks along the way and way back seeing the beautiful rocks and colors.

It is one of the most memorable tour we had been in!

It is one of the most memorable tour we had been in! Rainbow mountain was in one of my wife's bucket list. sadly in the second day after we arrived into cusco, I got Diarrhea. I text to cancel few hours before the tour but it was too late and the driver and guide - Jose did turn up to pick us up. I was then feeling better but not in the best shape. Jose suggest to return to pick us up in an hours time and see if we are ok and I could wait in the base for them if I still feel unwell. We took his suggestion and went for it an hour later. Jose went to the office and pick up some warm water and thermals bottle from the office. we had lunch at the base and drive up to Rainbow mountain. There we ride a horse to almost the top of the mountain. The very last bit of the mountain, Jose encourage us to do it and we finally made it to the top of the mountain. it was amazing there and worth all the effort. Jose was always by our side helping us and encouraging us , and help us to take picture too! He is simply amazing ! 1000000% recommend Jose ! thanks very much!

Best way to see Rainbow Mountain!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! My wife and I did this tour with Jose as the guide. We absolutely loved every aspect of this experience and this goes beyond the splendor of the Rainbow Mountain itself. Since this is a private tour, you have the flexibility to start at your preferred time. Before the trip, Brian was great at coordinating on start times, pickup details, pre-trip orientation etc. He helped us feel very prepared. The restaurant where we stopped for breakfast and lunch was also very nice with healthy food options and not at all touristy. Jose was absolutely the best guide we could have asked for. He paced himself as per our needs providing both support and encouragement when we felt tired. He was very caring and we developed a strong connection during the trip. He knew the exact spots to explore and also read the weather very well, which helped us avoid any rains etc. during the hike. All in all, it was amazing trip and all thanks to Jose, Brian and team.

Best Experience of a Lifetime! Thanks to Joselo for an amazing time. His knowledge and passion was outstanding. He was the best guide for this experience. He assisted and encouraged my dad to get to the top. Will never forget this experience. Thanks again to Joselo and our driver Orlando. If you choose this trip make sure you ask for Joselo because he’s the man you want to take you to the top of Rainbow Mountain!!
