Vinicunca Mountain
Vinicunca Rainbow Mountain Tour
Enjoy a unique experience in Vinicunca, one of Peru's most impressive destinations. The tour begins with pickup between 4:00 and 5:00 a.m. from your hotel in Cusco, depending on the location. We then travel for 2:30 hours to Cusipata, where you will enjoy breakfast. We continue for another hour by shuttle to the starting point of the hike.

We then return along the same route, have a buffet lunch, and finally return to Cusco, arriving at approximately 5:30 p.m., one block from Cusco's main square.
