One of the best memory - We had 💯 great time with less crowd and private tour with an amazing guide Albert and fun driver Edu. Learned about mountains and they kept us safe and fun. Less crowd and view was stunning! Highly recommended another mountain discovery from Cusco. 👍

Totally worth the long ride - The mountain looks like a painted canvas, absolutely stunning and less crowded than Rainbow Mountain. Having a private guide made the experience feel personal and flexible. We stopped for photos, rested when needed, and learned a lot about the area’s culture.

A fun experience - Our private guide made the whole experience feel safe. 🥰He explained the local traditions, watched our pace, and even brought coca tea for the altitude. It felt like hiking with a friend who truly knew the mountain.

A stunning views - Standing at the top, surrounded by dramatic colors and mountains, I felt something shift inside. It wasn’t just a tour, it was a deep, personal moment in nature.

Highly recommended - Pallay Punchu is less known than Rainbow Mountain, but I’m so glad we went. No crowds, just raw Andean beauty and peace. The drive was long but worth every minute.
