Great tour by Alex! :) - The tour was great - Alex was a fab guide, and the lakes and the surrounding landscapes were stunning. The food, especially the lunch (where you got a choice of 3 options) was great too. Overall definitely recommend touring with this company!

Must-see experience - An experience that no one should miss. The 5 hour walk was totally worth it. All the beautiful landscapes. Of course, good physical condition is needed for this trek. Thanks to our guide Wilfred.

What seemed impossible - This adventure was quite a physical challenge but above all a mental one as the fatigue arrived and even the desire to remove myself, however, being surrounded by an instructor/guide along with the support of my family, I was able to achieve it. I can say that it was worth it because the experience was rewarding to see such beautiful landscapes. Wilfred, an excellent guide who was always on the lookout for each of us, gave us explanations and even what we needed in case we felt bad. Anyway, I can say it was totally challenging but it was worth it.

Very good, beautiful lagoons but the road there are too many stones that do not help, the rest very good experiences - Very good experience, please recommend distances if long walks and be able to support with the issue of contacting someone who supports

Hands down Hike of a Life time! - What a fantastic experience! Our guide Alex was prompt, informative, accommodating and maintained our safety. We are from Florida so we were definitely concerned about the altitude and yes we felt it! That being said our family with two young children (7 & 10) trucked though and I have to admit I was proud of them! We did take the short cut for their sake so we missed out on one of the lagoons but we everything else more than made up for it. Ok about the tour our driver Will was also great albeit the traffic and driving in Peru is an experience in and of itself but they arrived early 04:30 and communicated everything very well even with the language barriers. We arrived at a small village of Chullos after about a 3 hour drive, it is rich with culture, kind Chullians and million dollar views. They provided a nutritious and tasty hot breakfast, fruit, eggs, pancakes and more. From there after a brief on or route and expectation we were off on our hike. I really can’t express how beautiful this hike is and truthfully it’s the hardest hike I’ve ever done but that was mostly due to the altitude adjustment and the fact we carried our youngest for parts of it. That being said we learned you can rent horse back or another means of trekking this hike through their private company chullos travel Peru dot com. Which I would seriously consider if you want the experience but may need physical assistance. After our trek we had lunch at the same location as breakfast the food again superb, hats off to the chef and their service! I had the local fried trout yum. You’ll also have the opportunity to soak in the hot springs and rejoice with your fellow hikers and the locals before heading back to Cusco. We made it back early enough to enjoy dinner and unwind. I tend to only write reviews if something is really stand out good or bad, because I rely on others that leave candid reviews. Although we definitely felt the effects of the altitude specifically as we descended I would 1000x recommend doing this adventure if you love nature, hiking, sightseeing, culture, physical challenges etc I could go on and on you should absolutely look into this tour. Alex our guide amazing! Will our driver great, Chullos Travel Peru love!

Unforgettable tour - It is an amazing walk, with unique beauty and great structure. Making the 7 Lagoas requires less than climbing Humantay. From breaking you see not only 1, but 7 Lagunas. The tour was even better for the attention that our guide Fran gave us. It was amazing and very worth it. Less wear and more beauty

Supampa tour to connect with nature, pure beauty! - It was a special experience, the tour was perfect from the beginning, the confirmation of search through the guide, warm mantle to rest, the guide Wilfredo is supimpa and very careful with all the groups, the fastest, those who stay in the middle of the route and my family who remained last. The driver Cirillo drove with great care and attention, which left us calm. The meals are individual and very well made. Simply perfect in all respects

The 7 lagoons are Ausangate, 12km of physical suffering, but 4 hours of landscapes taken from the story - Ernesto was our guide, the truth very grateful for all the journey, the landscapes were beautiful, really beautiful, Ernesto knows several languages, in my group I had colleagues from Brazil, Switzerland, Germany and I from Ecuador, everything communicated very well, also took beautiful photos

Un tour inolvidable - The trip was spectacular honestly the photographs do not do justice to what is seen, the guide was certainly very helpful, Hernesto, was always ready to audit and answer our doubts, also that his explanations enriched us the experience.

Great experience - We really enjoyed the hike. It wasn't exhausting for us. We were already in Cusco for a few days, so the altitude was not a problem for us and if you are used to hiking, it is well doable. The guide paid great attention to everyone. The bus ride (total 6h) takes forever and in the vans rather uncomfortable for this duration. Overall a great experience and breathtaking surroundings.
