It’s a long ride up and down and the hike is a little intense but the views and the lagoon were totally worth it!! Would recommend for a day trip in Cusco!!”

“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!”

“My fiancé and I had an amazing experience with this tour. It was so nice having all of our itineraries and transportation planned for us when we arrived in Peru (from the US). We had 3 different, fantastic tour guides. First, Rosbel took us on tours of the sacred valley and Machu Picchu. He was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and patient with us and our small group. Somehow he had an answer to every question I asked, no matter how random. He was so well organized and handled the many logistics of our trip so well - we never had to worry. We hiked Lake Humantay with Jacob, who was incredibly…”

Review of the Humantay Lake tour from Cusco, with high-altitude hiking advice, meals, transport, pricing, guides, and practical tips.

“We had almost two hours of riding the ATVs and it was so much fun! Thankfully they were automatic vehicles so we didn’t have to worry about switching gears when driving up the hill. Be prepared for a dusty ride! Wear a face covering and sunglasses while you ride. The hike itself is VERY DIFFICULT! If you are not a frequent hiker or use to walking at high elevations this tour will be very hard to complete. Our tour guide was so nice and encouraging while we were hiking but we needed to make frequent stops to stretch and catch our breath. You may get light headed or have an…”
