About this experience
Small group, personal attention, unforgettable scenery.
We limit the experience to 8 travelers, allowing our guides to provide more personal attention and help you enjoy the hike at a comfortable pace. Instead of feeling like one person in a large crowd, you'll have the opportunity to connect with your guide, learn about the Andes, and truly take in the experience.
With hotel pickup, transportation, breakfast, lunch, entrance fees, and a professional bilingual guide included, we take care of the logistics so you can focus on the adventure.
Most importantly, we don't want you to simply arrive at Humantay Lake, take a photo, and leave. We want you to experience the journey the mountains, the challenge, the culture, and the incredible moment when the turquoise waters finally appear.
