Itinerary

Rainbow Mountain Tour 3 Days ITINERARY 

DAY 1

SACRED VALLEY

Explore the Sacred Valley and board the train to Aguas Calientes in the afternoon.

We start the trip from the city of Cusco at 07:00 in the direction of Taray in the Sacred Valley. TARAY is a natural balcony to observe the valley with the Andes mountain range and the traditional populations along the Urubamba River. PISAC: The panoramic views of the Inca ruins of Pisaq on the agricultural platforms are spectacular when walking through them and exploring the different archaeological sites that comprise it. After visiting Pisac Inca, we drive to the TRADITIONAL MARKET OF PISAC to buy souvenirs or take many photos of conventional handicrafts while walking through the typical streets with “30 minutes of free time”.

We continue the Journey through the Sacred Valley along the Urubamba River to OLLANTAYTAMBO. The archaeological site of Ollantaytambo is located in the middle of three valleys, facilitating the control of the area. You surprise every visitor when walking along the Inca trails and visiting the Ollantaytambo temples that make them up. After the guided tour of Ollantaytambo, we must quickly go to the train station to board the train service. The tourist train leaves on time, so we must be at the indicated time. After the train ride, we will go to our HOTEL to rest and prepare to explore Machu Picchu the next day.

The site to visit:

  • VISIT PISAC INCA
  • VISIT COLONIAL PISAC
  • VISIT OLLANTAYTAMBO INCA

Travel Facts to Rainbow Mountain Travel Package 3 Days

April through November, Peru’s dry season, is the ideal time to complete the Rainbow Mountain Trek.

Bring warm clothing
Cozy hiking boots
Sun protection
A hat
Sunglasses
Water
A camera or cellular.

Although the Rainbow Mountain walk is generally risk-free, it is crucial to understand the Ausangate Andes altitude and take the appropriate safety measures.

Depending on the tour company and the kind of service they offer, the price of the Rainbow Mountain Tour varies.

You can book the three-day Rainbow Mountain Trek online through the Kondor Path Tours website or social media.

In a private service, you have plenty of time to conquer the colorful pass that requires a certain fitness level, so it might not be appropriate for young children. The three-day Rainbow Mountain Trek is a challenging but manageable walk. However, physically active and fit teenagers should have no trouble making the trek.

The trek to Machu Picchu and through the Sacred Valley is fantastic and straightforward, but the ascent of Vinicunca Rainbow Mountain typically requires more time due to the Andes’ altitude.

Alittle bit of everything We had a last minute change of plans when it came to our tour. We were supposed to visit the rainbow mountain but with the recent protesting we called to see if we could change last minute and they were very accommodating. Odon and Fernando were amazing! They took us to see multiple attractions and made us feel very at home. And kudos to Renee for the amazing driving. I would highly recommend using this company for a tour. We will definitely use them if we ever come back!

Family vacation Kondor path tours arranged a couple of private tours on our last vacation in Peru. Our first tour was the Rainbow Mountains and the next day we did the sacred Valley Tour.The administrative services were excellent, we met at our hotel the day before our tours and our head guide, Fredy, explained everything perfectly, including what to wear and bring for each tour. On the tour days, our guides (Fredy and Juan Carlos) and driver (Juan Carlos) were great! very knowledgeable, considerate about our party, always helpful and ready to answer questions and meet the expectations (completely different expectations because we had different ages in our party (from 11 to 69 years)) of each party member.The rainbow mountain is awesome and is is really helpful to go with a guide that knows about the area, but also about hiking!!!

Excellent guide who stays with you for the entire day The Vinicunca one-day horse tour was fantastic. The friendly and informative Freddy guided us for the entire bus ride and mountain trek. He knew where to stand to get the best photos and made everything fun and accommodating. The horse ride up made it much easier to enjoy the final hike. Lunch was large and tasty. Door to door service.

Awesome Service and Tours Fernando and Patricia were SUPER responsive - usually responded to emails within 10 minutes!!. The arrangements they made for Cusco, Machu Picchu, Sacred Valley, and surrounding areas were awesome.They were waiting for us at the airport and did everything we asked them. Our guide for the four days was Herberth and driver was Juan Carlos. Both were SUPER SUPER great. Juan Carlos was such an amazingly pleasant driver with cute stories. He also was a very safe driver. Herberth was very knowledgable and helpful. Took us all over the places with details about the history and details. We had friends who were not able to climb much and they accommodated us all.On the day we had planned to do rainbow mountain we did not feel great and emailed Fernando at 5am and he responded within 5 minutes with other options for us to do that day. Overall, if you are going to Peru and want to visit the historic sites, you SHOULD go with these people. They are SUPERB!!

Rainbow Trek and Horseback Riding A group of 7 of us did a One Day Rainbow Trek and Horseback Riding. Freddy was our guide and he was prompt and with us every moment of the journey. They were so accommodating to move the debrief meeting the night before because we had a food tour that evening. Freddy had so much energy, knowledge, and excitement to share with us about his native homeland. In addition, he made sure that we were well taken care of when one of us was actually sick from the altitude. It was such an amazing experience and Freddy made sure we got the best of it. Thank you! Highly recommend Kondor Path Tours.

MachuPicchu and Rainbow Moutain We worked with Kondor Path for two tours, of Machu Picchu and Rainbow Mountain. Everything they did was well organized, well documented, well communicated. The two guides and the driver were great, very friendly and knowledgeable. All were bilingual (English and Spanish). At Rainbow Mountain we rode horses to the base of the really steep part of the mountain (this saved some 7 km of hiking). But that last part was quite difficult! I'm glad I had prepared and gotten conditioned.
