The overall experience... - The overall experience was very good. We were picked up on time from our hotel and the transfer was very easy. We had breakfast and made our way to the lake with our guide who was very helpful and accommodating for any needs you have. The hike/horse ride was amazing. The overall experience was great and worth the trip.

Beautiful views and knowledgeable tour guide - I loved the tour of Humantay Lake! Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and shared information about the geography of the area. The provided breakfast and lunch were at a restaurant with beautiful views of the mountains, though it seems like every tour of Humantay goes to the same restaurant. I was glad to have plenty of time to enjoy the lake.
