Itinerary

DAY 1

ATV Adventure to Rainbow Mountain

Your day will begin early with a pickup from your hotel (if it is located near the historic center of Cusco) between 4:00 AM and 4:30 AM, or between 6:00 AM and 6:30 AM.

Once we are all set, we will embark on a journey south of Cusco. After approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, we will arrive at the district of Cusipata, where a delicious breakfast will be waiting to recharge our energy.

With full stomachs and adventurous spirits, we will continue along a dirt road to the private property of Kayrahuire Alto, at an impressive 4450 m.a.s.l. This will be the starting point of our exciting ATV journey. Here, your guide will provide complete instructions on operating our ATVs, and you will have time to practice in a designated area. It is also important to note that we have an exclusive route for our vehicles, ensuring your safety and enjoyment.

The ATV ride will last approximately 50 minutes to 1 hour (round trip). During this journey, speed is secondary; the important thing is to enjoy the beautiful surrounding landscapes, the imposing view of the Apu Ausangate snow-capped mountain, and the opportunity to see local people in their traditional attire. Remember, speeding is prohibited to ensure a safe and pleasant experience for everyone!

At the end of the ATV ride, we will be just minutes from the majestic Rainbow Mountain. We will leave our vehicles and embark on a short 3 to 5-minute walk to reach this natural attraction. Once there, you will have approximately 40 minutes to explore and marvel at the palette of colors that nature has painted on this mountain.

The adventure doesn’t end here. We will descend on ATVs for about 30 more minutes to the vehicle parking area, where we will board our transport back to the restaurant in Cusipata. Here, a well-deserved lunch will be waiting for you to regain your strength.

Finally, we will begin the return journey to the city of Cusco, a trip that will last approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes.

  • Thermal Clothing for the Cold: Mornings and evenings in the Andes can be very cold, especially at high altitudes. Dress in layers to adapt to temperature changes.
  • Comfortable and Sturdy Trekking Shoes: You will need appropriate footwear for walking on uneven and possibly wet terrain. Good grip is essential.
  • Rain Poncho or Waterproof Jacket: The weather in the Andes is unpredictable; rain can appear at any time, even in the dry season.
  • Hat and Sunglasses: Solar radiation at this altitude is very strong. Protect your head and eyes from the sun.
  • High-Factor Sunscreen: Apply it generously and frequently, even on cloudy days, to avoid sunburn.
  • Personal Medications and for Altitude Sickness: If you take any specific medication, do not forget to bring it. Consider bringing pills for altitude sickness, such as Soroche pills or prescribed medication, if you are sensitive to altitude.
  • Hydration and Additional Snacks: Although breakfast and lunch are included, bringing extra water and some energy snacks will help you stay hydrated and energized during the tour.
  • External Battery for Devices: You won’t want to run out of battery on your phone or camera when capturing the stunning landscapes.
  • Respect for the Natural Environment: Help us preserve the beauty of this unique place. Avoid leaving trash and follow the marked trails to protect the local flora and fauna.

My trip to Peru was an incredible experience, it exceeded all my expectations!✨ It was five days full of adventures and landscapes that seem to have been lifted from a dream: Machu Picchu, the lagoon, the colorful mountain... each place was just spectacular 😍. But what really made the difference was Tania, a super attentive person, looking after every detail and all our needs. Thanks to her, everything was perfect, carefree and with first-rate attention. 🌄💖 Without a doubt, a 1000% recommended tour — an experience I will never forget. 🙌🇵🇪

I recommend Machu Picchu Peru Travel with all my heart! I've found them via TripAdvisor, the positive reviews have convinced me that it is going to be a good choice and it definitelly was! We have done 2-day Sacred Valley Tour and Rainbow Mountain. Everything went according to the plan, the price for the trips was very reasonable. The owner, Tania, was super helpful, always there for us. Our guide Willie had incredible knowledge, was taking great care of us and generally is a great companion. It's an excellent tour operator, do not hesitate and choose them for your experience in Peru!

A pleasant experience, we hired the full tour with the agency from Lima, with tour to the Ballestas and Huacachina islands, then Cusco tour to the Sacred Valley, Machu Pichu, Humantay lagoon and colorful mountain, everything was super good, and Tania's attention at all times very good. We had a great time and recommend the agency 100%

We recently returned from an incredible trip to Peru, and we owe it all to Tania from Machu Picchu Peru Travels. From start to finish, she was professional, attentive, and deeply knowledgeable about the destination. Every detail from our accommodations and guided tours to transportation and local experiences was perfectly planned. Tania took the time to understand our travel style and preferences, and she created Spotting Sea Lions in Islas de Ballestas in Paracas, dune bashing and sand surfing at the Oasis de Huancachina, hiking Machu Picchu, exploring the Sacred Valley, and riding on ATVs to the Rainbow Mountain. What stood out most was her responsiveness and care, even during the trip. When we had a minor questions while abroad, she replied immediately and ensured everything went smoothly. We couldn’t have asked for a better travel experience and would absolutely recommend Tania and Machu Picchu to anyone planning a trip to Peru!

Excellent experience
We had an outstanding experience with Taina at Machu Picchu. He was extremely professional, passionate and knowledgeable about Inca history, culture and the site itself. she adjusted the pace perfectly for our group, answered all our questions patiently, and made the whole tour fascinating and memorable. We couldn’t ask for a better guide and highly recommend him to everyone traveling to Machu Picchu.

Wow, what great service! I’ve been on many tours and few have had the clarity and communication skills that Tania and her team had. From the moment I reached out in interest to the end of the Machu Picchu excursion, Tania was exceptionally clear and helpful, making every step very easy to follow. Planning Machu Picchu on your own is *technically* possible, but it takes a tremendous amount of work to plan with a lot of unknown variables. Booking a tour with Machu Picchu Peru Travel makes it easy for not much more cost, and eases the anxiety of all the unknowns with the complex journey. It is truly a great value for travelers. Now if only I could have Tania organize the rest of life…! :)

I send a huge shout out to the agency and every single guide that help us through our journey!

Machu Picchu Peru Travel – Super Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu 2D/1N Tour I highly recommend booking with Machu Picchu Peru Travel for any of their tours. We did the Super Sacred Valley with Machu Picchu 2D/1N, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. From the very beginning, their level of communication was top tier. Tania was fantastic, clear, quick, and informative even before we booked. She was patient, guided us through the process, and ensured we got the exact circuit we wanted 2B, making everything completely stress-free and well organised. When we arrived in Cusco, she personally met us at our hotel for a detailed briefing, which showed how much she genuinely cared about our experience and ensuring everything went smoothly. Pickup was always on time, and every effort was made to keep the tour running seamlessly. The Sacred Valley tour itself was very enjoyable, with a fluent English-speaking guide who made everything easy to understand and engaging. Later that evening, we boarded the train to Aguas Calientes, where we were met and guided to our hotel. That evening, our guide Ruth visited us for a briefing, she was humble, warm, and very professional. The next day, she accompanied us from the hotel to the bus and then up to Machu Picchu. Being a private tour made the experience feel very personal and insightful. Ruth shared a wealth of knowledge, took her time explaining everything, and even helped us capture some amazing photos. Overall, this tour was 100% worth it-excellent organisation, outstanding guides, and a truly stress-free way to experience Machu Picchu.

We recently completed the 2-Day Sacred Valley Tour from Cusco with Machu Picchu Peru Travel, and it was one of the best-organized and most enjoyable tours we have ever experienced in Peru. From the very first contact to the final goodbye at our hotel, everything was handled with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care for our experience. Communication was exceptional right from the start. The team was incredibly responsive on WhatsApp, answering all our questions promptly and patiently, even when we had last-minute requests and changes. Their quick replies gave us complete peace of mind as we planned our trip to Peru. The day before our tour, we received a detailed briefing (via WhatsApp and in person) that clearly explained the entire itinerary, what to expect, what to bring, and all the important timings. It was thorough and reassuring, which helped us feel fully prepared and relaxed. What impressed us most was how flexible and accommodating the team was. We had booked different panoramic train rides and specific circuits for Machu Picchu, and they seamlessly adjusted everything to match our preferences without any hassle. Their ability to handle these details smoothly showed just how experienced and client-focused they are. Our English-speaking tour guides were simply fantastic! They were not only extremely knowledgeable about the history, culture, and significance of the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu, but they were also genuinely friendly, patient, and enthusiastic. They went above and beyond by acting as personal photographers for our group—taking beautiful photos from all the best angles and even suggesting creative shots we would never have thought of. Thanks to them, we now have stunning memories captured perfectly. The entire tour ran like clockwork. The transportation was comfortable and safe, the pacing was ideal (never rushed, but never boring), and the contingency plans they had in place for weather, altitude, or any unexpected situations made us feel truly well taken care of. Everything was thought through so we could simply relax and enjoy the magic of the Sacred Valley and the wonder of Machu Picchu. If you’re planning a trip to Cusco and Machu Picchu, I cannot recommend Machu Picchu Peru Travel highly enough. Their attention to detail, excellent communication, flexible approach, and warm, professional guides made our 2-day Sacred Valley tour an unforgettable highlight of our Peru adventure. Thank you to the entire team—you made our dream trip even more special! We will definitely be booking with you again on our next visit to Peru. Highly recommended – 10/10!
