Highlights
  • Plaza de Armas Cuzco - We will begin picking you up at 3:30 am from your respective hotels located in the city center of Cusco.
  • Pitumarca - In this beautiful district, particularly in the communities of Hanchipacha, Japura, and Osefina, we will have a wonderful opportunity to see animals such as llamas and alpacas grazing in their natural habitat, tended by locals dressed in traditional costumes that have been preserved since the time of the Incas.
  • Vinicunca Mountain - After arriving at our ATV base, we will have a 10-minute practice session before starting the route. Once ready, we will drive for one hour to Qosqopata village.

In Qosqopata village, we will leave our ATVs and switch to motorcycles provided by the villagers, who will take us to Rainbow Mountain in a 7-minute ride (optional motorcycle rental). If you prefer not to rent, you can walk for 45 minutes to reach Rainbow Mountain.

Upon arriving at Rainbow Mountain, we will have 1 hour to enjoy the breathtaking landscape and take beautiful photos with our guide.

After visiting Rainbow Mountain, we will descend the same way by motorcycle for 7 minutes, then take our ATVs for a 1-hour ride back down to Hanchipacha village. Along the route, we will enjoy stunning landscapes, see llamas and alpacas, and make several stops to take photos and capture the beautiful scenery.

  • Checacupe - This district is on the way to our destination, the Mountain of Seven Colors, by quads. Here, we will have the opportunity to see one of the legacies of our ancestors, the Incas.

Once you reach Kayrawiri Alto or the end of the road, you can rent a motorcycle from the community members to avoid walking for 1 hour.

Kayrawiri Alto is a town where you can start walking from that point, and you can also rent a motorcycle.

In this place, we will appreciate three bridges that date from three different periods:

  1. Inka Bridge
  2. Colonial Bridge
  3. Present Bridge
  • Cusco - Around 2 pm, we will have our lunch in Cusipata district. After lunch, we will head back to Cusco, taking approximately 2 hours from Cusipata district to Cusco. We will arrive at the main square of Cusco city at around 5:00 pm, which will be our final stop for everyone.

A fantastic tour - A great experience and perfect organization of the tour. The journey by motorbike to the base of the ascent allows a contact with nature and wonderful views. The attention of our driver Roger and our Guide Rogelio, excellent in everything.

Great ride ! - It was a great ride to the Rainbow mountain into the beautiful Andes. Pick up on time. Then we arrived at the ATV site afters 3 hours. We had a practice before and then one hour ride to rainbow mountain. It was really well coordinated by Rogelio, Edgar and Roger. They made sure we were safe all the way. When you arrive at the mountainside you have the option to walk, ride a horse or go on a motorcycle ride. I paid $90 souls for the motorcycle because I wasnt feeling too good with the altitude to walk. I had coca tea when I got up there and I felt better. But the presure is heavy and I had a little headdache afterwards. They tour brings oxygen and they have a small ambulatory at the mountainside.Overall I recommend the experience it was a fun ride. My only low point was tge food, it needs improvement.

A colourful experience with the Bodacious Dogs - A very early start (3.30am) but totally worth it! 3 hr drive was broken up with breakfast. 1 hr of ATV up to rainbow mountain followed by a spectacular view. You have the option of getting a horse ride or motorbike ride to the top (70 soles). On the way back down we stopped at the same restaurant for lunch. Highly recommend using a Buff over your mouth for the ATVs... super dusty.

Loved this!! - Of all the tours I took in South America, this was my favorite. It’s an early morning start but worth it. Taking the quad to the mountain was a good idea for me rather than pushing a tough hike at 17k’ above sea level. It’s a quick ride to the top. I had no problem managing the quad- it was fun. I would suggest an altitude sickness prescription if visiting. Saw some cool sites on the drive to and from as well (alpaca herds, villages). We also had TWO meals included in the price. Fantastic all around.

Rainbow mountain, experience of a lifetime! - I booked last minute, and it was worth every penny. The views you see when you reach the top of Rainbow mountain are one of the most inspiring, surreal and amazing views you will ever see. The tour took care of everything and once you reach the top of the mountain they even check on your well being, the altitude will make some people dizzy. They helped with pictures as well. And if you don’t know how to ride the ATV’s no problem they patiently train you. Edgar was super helpful. Kudos to Viajes Speedy, THE VIEW of the rainbow mountain ⛰️was the adventure of a lifetime. I went solo and made good friends along the way. Absolutely loved it!🥰

The views were amazing. - My sister, grandson, and I booked the tour. We were joined by one other guest. The breakfast along the way was typical Peruvian food. It was good and there was a big variety. When we got to the ATV place, we were given some training and then we were on our way. along the way we saw fields of alpacas. The views of the mountain are stunning. There is also a very large glacier there. This was a great tour. The entire day lasted about 12 hours for us. I would recommend this trip and I would do it again.
