Beautiful place - Absolutely beautiful. I booked the optional horse ride and it was good. Quickly shoot your photos/videos as clouds and fogs shift quickly.

Breathtaking Views - The lake was just beautiful and even more beautiful if you go the extra 100' up after you get there. The clouds parted and we were able to see the majestic Salkantay and Asungate? Humantay? mountains behind the lake. Spectacular. The breakfast/lunch spot had some of the best food we ate on the entire 10 day trip to Peru. Nice variety, and lots of flowers decorating the walkway and restaurant. Good hike with views all the way. My husband and I (63/58) hiked it with our 5 children, 3 spouses and a grandson (1) in a backpack. Got our passports "stamped" afterward which was fun. Driver was excellent. Bumpy roads are not his fault and the van seats were comfortable. Not sure how the guide divides the tip, but I hope the driver got his share. A very long day with the drive. I wouldn't plan another long day right after it.

Cheap excursion to Lake Humantay. Great service! Excellent breakfast and lunch buffet. - We paid $25 for this excursion to Humantay Lake. Communication is via WhatsApp. The price includes breakfast and lunch buffet. Our guide, Werner, was very kind. He made sure everybody who needed help was taken care of. We paid 80 soles for the horse to hike up the mountain (which was totally worth it). You don't have to pay more than $25 for this excursion (or to Rainbow Mountain). Book it with Chullos Travel Peru and you'll have the same experience as those who paid a lot more.

Unbelievably beautiful... - Unbelievably beautiful virgin nature, memory for all life. Tried water from stream, so good! Just be careful with latitude, I went to trip in 4 hours after airport and did not sleep, honestly physically was not easy. But mentally is fantastically and I forgot about my symptoms. Coca tea helps, but better be prepared well before trip.

Beautiful place, but lack of guide - Difficult trail but the view is beautiful. Incredible! When descending there is also a risk of skidding. We missed more assistance from the guide during the experience, one person in the group fell and almost sprained her foot and the guide was not present to provide assistance. Could you provide more directions along the way...

Stunning - worth the trip! - Picked up on time. The trip is long. When we got there we were able to see some of the mountains before it got cloudy. Other tour guide advised that we should have gotten there earlier to avoid the clouds - probably something that our tour agency should have prevailed.
