It was a wonderful experience, words cannot describe what was experienced in that place - An incredible place, with a magical and beautiful view, a place full of calm that should be visited with respect, admiration and gratitude. Our guide Domingo Pinchi Surco was an excellent guide, the best company; The love and respect for what he does and for his land are remarkable. Your company made our trip a 10 out of 10 experience.

Humantay Lake Peru, nice trekking and good views - The Humantay lake is beautiful. However, the climbing is quite hard if you are not used to this attitude (4200 meters above the sea level). Make sure the guide has an oxigen balloon with him. I would recommend to take this company, they include horses for the way up and hiking poles, it make the climbing much easier and pleasant, good service and good organization.
