Fun opportunity to get close to alpacas and llamas. - This was a fun and interesting tour. Really enjoyed feeding the llamas and alpacas-they were so cute and funny. Molly was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable. I especially liked learning about how the weavers use regular ingredients to dye the yarn.

Great for Animal Lovers - I’ve always loved alpacas, so finally meeting them up close was a dream. The staff explained the difference between llamas and alpacas, which I never really understood before. The weaving part was fascinating, especially watching how natural dyes are made.

Unique Route from the Sacred Valley - While staying in the Sacred Valley, we found out that not many agencies actually run trips to Rainbow Mountain starting from there. This company did, and it turned out to be an excellent choice. The day started very early with a pickup around 3:30 in the morning. After a quiet drive through the highlands, we stopped at a cozy restaurant where breakfast was waiting, and later in the day, a warm lunch was served after the trek. Our guide, Julian, deserves special thanks. He never rushed anyone, explained everything with patience, and helped me when the altitude felt overwhelming. They even carried oxygen, which allowed me to recover and continue until reaching the viewpoint. The view of Rainbow Mountain was worth every step—colors shifting with the sunlight and endless mountains around us. The whole team was friendly, reliable, and truly cared about the group’s well-being. For those based in the Sacred Valley, this tour is a great way to experience Vinicunca without having to go back to Cusco first.

Andean Culture Up Close - The farm is well kept, and you can tell the animals are treated with care. The weaving demonstration was simple but eye-opening—I came away with a real appreciation for handmade alpaca products.

A lovely experience with alpacas - Visiting the farm was one of the most beautiful moments of my trip to Cusco. To be able to see the alpacas and llamas up close, feed them and learn about them was amazing. The weaving demonstration also surprised me, as I had never seen wool transformed into such fine craftsmanship.

The best short activity in Cusco! - What a fun experience. This is an animal sanctuary and cultural center. Your dollars support preservation. Literally the best thing to do your first day in Cusco. Pickup service and guide were on point! Marlith gave the tour in English and Spanish as we went. She kept the pace comfortable and allowed us lots of time with all the animals, who were beautiful and well kept. The weavers were so welcoming too. I can’t say enough positive things about it. They also have an amazing shop with very high quality textiles and educational information about purchasing alpaca wool. No sales pressure, just kind assistance. But buy something, it helps the sanctuary! We did

Fun for the Whole Family - We visited as a family and all ages enjoyed it. The animals are gentle, and the staff was kind and informative. The kids especially loved seeing the wool spun and dyed by hand. It was educational in a way that kept them engaged.

Truly Memorable and Beautifully Run - From start to finish, this tour was smooth and enjoyable. The pickup was on time, the drive was scenic, and the tour guides were super friendly. I left feeling connected to the culture in a way that museum visits can’t replicate.

Great, short, excursion, completely worth it! - Awesome trip! It was about 2.5 hours. Which was plenty of time. We feed Llamas and Alpacas. They were very sweet and my 12 year old had a blast. After traveling to Ollantaytambo and Machu Picchu, we didn’t see any. So, this was the perfect experience to get up close to them.
