Great Experience

Jonathan was amazing, patient and attentive to all the trekkers of all different abilities. He gave great tips for the hike and encouraged everyone at the level they were at and for more seasoned hikers to try trickier routes for viewpoints or descents he felt they were capable of undertaking. Positive experience from start to finish!

Titoooooo is the best!

Such an amazing tour and amazing price! Tito was very communicative, knowledgeable, and fun! He was very patient when we ran a little behind the group. Breakfast/lunch was buffet style which I really appreciated, and everything was magnificent. Would specifically recommend Tito’s tour to anyone visiting!

Hike to Lake Humantay

The Humantay Lake is very nice! The tour was well-organised. The hike takes about 2h going up and it's quite steep, but definitely worth it. Tito was an excellent guide!
