A long Cusco day trip to Ausangate’s 7 lagoons, with sunrise views, Andean meals, optional hot springs, and altitude-aware guiding.
“The tour is undoubtedly stunning: landscapes that take the breath (literally). But it is essential that the disclosure be more clear about the level of difficulty: walking for more than 5 hours above the 4,000 meters of altitude requires physical preparation and adaptation to altitude. It's not a light walk, and that has to be said with all the letters.”

Hike Ausangate’s seven lagoons from Cusco, then unwind at Pacchanta hot springs. Early start, high altitude, big mountain views.
“I had to reschedule my trip and they asked me to confirm the day before. I was told my guide would be Antoni and to expect pick up between 4:20-4:40. Not only did they show up at 5am but the guide was different. It was after several calls at 4:20 that I was given the correct info.
