Excellent experience!!

Our two-day Ausangate trek and our visit to Ausangate have been an excellent experience. Our guide Wilian was wonderful, and his knowledge and experience were evident throughout this experience. Fantastic hike, very well organized and planned. The Ausangate Adventure team was excellent. Thank you!

Response from the operator: We are very grateful and delighted to provide you with our service! We love that you enjoyed the food and had such a satisfying experience. We truly appreciate your recommendation of the hike. We look forward to welcoming you again on future adventures!

An experience in the heart of Ausangate Perú

We spent 2 wonderful days in Ausangate at Wiliam and it was very exotic to be at the heart of the local people’s lives. Wiliam is a very endearing person. To live an experience that is out of the ordinary, it offers Guide services with bedtime including all services (transport tents and food). Easy to get home by taking the bus to Cusco towards Tinki where a taxi is waiting for you to take you to Wiliam. He can be reached on +51960316619 via WhatsApp

Unique experience in Ausangate

If you are planning an exclusion in Ausangate, this family is for you! Together with Willian we organized the excursion to the Seven Lagoons, slept on their farm and had the pleasure of getting in touch with his family. It is a truly intimate experience that allows you to discover El Nevado from a local point of view: there will be many legends, recipes and habits you will hear about this place. Highly recommended!!

2-Day Guided Tour of Ausangate Trek: questions travelers ask

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

How much does 2-Day Guided Tour of Ausangate Trek cost?

+

Prices start at $290 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 2-Day Guided Tour of Ausangate Trek 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 2-Day Guided Tour of Ausangate Trek worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 3 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 2-Day Guided Tour of Ausangate Trek?

+

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 2-Day Guided Tour of Ausangate Trek suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 8. 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 2-Day Guided Tour of Ausangate Trek?

+

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 2-Day Guided Tour of Ausangate Trek 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.
