Ausangate Trek 5 Days

Posted By : Excursion05398610513
The 5 day Ausangate Trek with guide Chino was absolutely incredible. I am so glad I booked Vidal Expeditions for this trip, it would have been extremely difficult doing solo. Chino was an amazing guide, he supported our group and catered our trip based off our wants (adding rainbow mountain, duration of hikes). The scenery was breathtaking the whole way and the accommodations/food were excellent. Leo, Rosa, and Miguel worked tremendously hard each day to provide us the best experience. Miguel's cooking was the best I've had in Peru! I will 100% book through Vidal Expeditions in the future, they made my trip extremely memorable!

I 1000% recommend booking with VE for any tours around Cusco area. I booked the 5 day Ausangate trek and it was 5 star service from start to finish. Chino was an amazing guide, Miguel an amazing chef and the lovely couple or horseman/horsewoman Leo and Rosa were the most hardworking people I have ever met. I thought of doing this trek on my own and I am so glad I decided to go with this guided tour. The altitude hits everyone differently and having a guide there to monitor your symptoms is a peace of mind that has no price. Thank you for an amazing trek, I will gladly book again on my next trip to Peru!

I am a solo traveler woman looking for adventure and prioritising safety. Vidal offered me not only safety but also a lot of learning (adventure is guaranteed). I had the opportunity to meet Urbano and if you want to have conversations about culture, science and geography I recommend him. If I had to choose an agency in Peru it would always be Vidal 🩵.

Ps. They made me a birthday cake in the mountains and I will never forget it. ✨

We had four fantastic days with our guide Urbano and his team. Five stars are not enough, we would gladly give more. The Austangate Trek was a once in a lifetime experience. Super organized and absolutely authentic! A big thank you to everyone.

beautiful experience:

- our guide Johans explained the mountain fauna to us. On several occasions we were able to observe various cute little animals through his binoculars (no spoilers ;)). He also immediately understood our walking pace and adapted perfectly to the group's needs without ever stressing us

- our chef Felix truly cooks like a god, nothing to envy of a restaurant! food always very varied and plentiful. Plus Felix always puts you in a good mood with his big smile

- Mario and Angel, the transporters, were very efficient in setting up and dismantling the camp every time we stopped!

Thank you Vidal expeditions for this wonderful experience. We absolutely recommend!

This was an amazing trip! The scenery was fantastic and every pass brought new views better than the last. Vidal expeditions was amazing. Our guide was Johannes, we was extremely knowledgeable about the local area, plants and animals. Vidal expeditions also cooked us amazing food for each meal! We were never left feeling hungry after a meal. I would recommend a minimum of 3 days in Cusco to acclimate first. We spent only a day and a half in Cusco and found the first night hard to sleep.

We have done the Ausangate trekking for 4 days and it has been an unforgettable experience. Both our guide, Urbano, and the rest of the team have helped and taken care of us. The food is excellent!!!!! The trekking is perfectly organized. Thanks for everything.

We had a great time exploring Ausangate and Rainbow Mountain with Urbano. It was four incredible days with great service from the start until the drop-off. The hike is quite challenging due to the fact that we had to climb a few times over 5,000 meters in cold weather. However, with Urbano as our guide, we were very motivated to complete the whole circuit.
We were a group of three people from different nationalities, and Urbano managed to be a family. We also had two other local friends (Angel and Miguel) who came with us to organize everything we got on this trip.
We were worried about the weather conditions due to January is part of it, and we're very lucky to have incredible days even with little rain in the evening. The food was awesome; our chef prepared a variety of food every day, and they also provided warm water every morning and afternoon.
They set up all our camping gear every day. Urbano took stunning photos and told us great histories during these four days, took care of us every moment, and had useful information about the area.We recommend preparing very well for this trek and taking time to acclimatize well in Cusco before heading for this tour. Drink plenty of water and do some exercises, but the views are without a doubt worth it.

Hi Vidal. Here is a message to tell you how much we enjoyed the Ausangate trek. Binerson was great. Same with Angel and Mario, and Andres was fabulous. This man is a gem so nice and a great chef. You met 100% of our expectations. I would recommend your agency to anyone wanting to experience the majestic beauty of that region. Please tell your team how much we had a good time with them
Thanks so much
Yves
