We picked this tour as it mentioned that it had a MAXIMUM of 10 participants (as we prefer small groups) but we were 19! We were the first to be picked up at 4.20am and spent the next 35/40mins picking up other people around Cusco. Therefore it added more time to the journey.
It was a rough start but the rest of the day went as planned. Humantay lake is challenging but definitely worth it!

Excellent trip!! The lagoon is beautiful, beautiful!! Edmar's guide was very very good, he is a great connoisseur of the culture and has great charisma… I recommend this tour! Likewise, the tour to Machu Pichu and the mountain of 7 colors was the best, the guides Verónica and Dennis are also great people and knowledgeable about the territory, in short a good experience and trip with this tourism agency!!

It was a very nice experience to get to the top, tired, but the effort was worth it.
The guide was always attentive to all of us and the food was very good too...
I will surely return to that place.
Highly recommended agency.

It is a fairly long route, it requires good physical condition, but it is very important to keep in mind that due to the height, sometimes you feel out of breath, but it is really worth it, the landscape is one of the most beautiful that we have seen, as for our guide Jonathan, he is really very kind, he explains everything very well, he is very patient, and attentive, super noble and a good person.

Spectacular!! I recommend going with a horse 💪 because it is very tiring and with good special shoes for trekking

The tour operator was incredibly unorganized. They woke me up at 3:45am one day before because they didn’t know which day it was.
They say they pick you up at the hotel, that is a lie. Someone comes and walks you to the spot where the van is parked (in our case, around 6 blocks).
It says the tour is for maximum 15 people, and they were 20.
The van was very old, the air conditioning didn’t work, in general, in a very poor condition.
Both breakfast and lunch were disgusting.
The tour guide was nice and helpful, the place is stunning, but use a different operator.

The Humantay Lagoon tour is really worth doing and the lagoon is spectacular when you arrive. The whole hike is about 12km round trip (3hrs total) and it is up quite a sustained gradient. If you’re not used to hiking at altitude, this could be quite a difficult trek. The day is quite long with stops for breakfast and lunch, so do bear that in mind. You will be gone for the whole day and the majority of time will be spent in the van. The tour is quite self led - you hike up and back independently and don’t have a lot of contact with the guide during the hike.

It was a fantastic experience travelling to Humantay Lake with them. They took a great effort in making our trip a memorable and a pleasant one. Due to COVID-19, they also took great care and maintained protocols. We felt very safe and we highly reccomend Machu Picchu Peru Tours.
