A good guide is a great teacher and becomes a good friend.

Went to Humantay with Pappa Freddy. A truly wonderful guide who made every part of the trip enjoyable. From greeting me at tge ungodly hour to get the best experience with a smile and energy that made me know this would be a special day to dropping me off after the adventure. He strongly suggested taking horses up the mountain which was very wise. At the lake he gave a wonderful explanation of the spiritual connection between earth and sky...ice and water. He did a fantastic job taking 3 different sets of people in the group and making us feel like family. Waman takes care of their clients and Pappa Freddy made this a truly captivating and wonderful experience I will remember forever.

Amazing Tour Guide

There were 6 people in our group (4 from San Diego, 2 from Hawaii). We had Ernesto as our tour guide for 4 days: Machu Picchu, Laguna Humantay Lake, Rainbow Mountain, and Chincheros. Ernesto was amazing!!! He was very patient, kind, knowledgeable, caring, and respectful. Our driver was also amazing, kept us safe during the ride.

02 Day Trek to Humantay Lake & Salkantay Mountain - Private Service: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.

How much does 02 Day Trek to Humantay Lake & Salkantay Mountain - Private Service cost?

+

Prices start at $440 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cusco usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does 02 Day Trek to Humantay Lake & Salkantay Mountain - Private Service take?

+

Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cusco is not rushed.

Is 02 Day Trek to Humantay Lake & Salkantay Mountain - Private Service worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule 02 Day Trek to Humantay Lake & Salkantay Mountain - Private Service?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is 02 Day Trek to Humantay Lake & Salkantay Mountain - Private Service suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 9. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 48-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book 02 Day Trek to Humantay Lake & Salkantay Mountain - Private Service?

+

Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cusco can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cusco and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does 02 Day Trek to Humantay Lake & Salkantay Mountain - Private Service start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cusco within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Cusco?

+

On Outty we rank every Cusco experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sacred Valley Full Day Tour, Peruvian Cooking Class Cocktails and Market Tour in Cusco, Cusco: Rainbow Mountain & Red Valley Premium Day Trip with Meals. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Cusco?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Cusco?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
