Franchesco is the best

Franchesco was really good and he has been there with us all the way up. Some of us had problems adjusting to the altitude, but thanks to him everyone made to the top without problems. Really professional and a great guy.

A mystical day in the Andes

My guide felt like a friend by the end of the day. The personalized attention during the hike and the authentic ritual made me feel completely looked after. An unforgettable solo adventure.

Stunning vistas, good services, physically demanding

The trip to the rainbow mountains was great! Quite affordable for a day-long expedition. The vistas along the roughly two hour trip are great, and the driver was very confident. The main attraction of the rainbow mountains are stunning, though they require to be physically fit! Plenty of time is provided to enjoy the vistas up there. Breakfast and lunch are provided when going to and from the site, the buffet is satisfactory and offers unlimited coca tea. Depending on the time of the morning, there can be quite a few people queuing for the best photo spots, but overall the place is so big it doesn’t feel crowded. Francesco was a good guide, happy to provide tips for the trips and a few anecdotes along the way. Prepare some cash for site admission.
