Rainbow Mountain
This tour is well worth the early morning departure. Our guide - Jose - was passionate and informative and provided valuable insights to the history of Rainbow Mountain and Red Valley. The meals were fresh local food and very good. And our driver - Juan - was excellent up and down the mountain.

Long journey great experience - arrived late
Long journey great experience The procedure did not correspond to the description. Different itineraries are offered through the local agencies, which differ from the process. Routes and providers are merged here. I made the trip on 28.04.2024. The operator who was stricken on the bus was Andino. This offers another tour without an ATV option. Here the guide looked after Doris/Doro. With I started at 04:30 from the hotel. My tour unfortunately started later. The pickup did not take place at the indicated time at 3:30 am. The contact with the operator, was supported by the staff of our hotel La Posada del Viajero in Cusco, Santa Catalina Ancha 366 on the night of thankful . The hotel pickup was then around 4:30 a.m. As a result, I was later at the destination and already many other tourists on site. That's not how it was intended. A small hike was planned, which did not take place. Instead, we drove to the finish line with the ATVs. Obviously, we also started from another location with the ATVs, as we encountered other ATVs in the feeder minibus. Arrival at the ATV drop-off point was around 09:00. The guide Carus was there. One hour of travel time was planned with the ATVs each way. Effectively, it was only 25 minutes each way. Arriving at the mountain/gathering place, there was a briefing on the surroundings and when the return is planned. Stay was an hour. The guides were super nice and were also helpful with information and pictures. Photos with llamas standing by for a small allowance could also be taken on the mountain. The ascent of the 5000-meter-high "viewing hill" could be recognized in the passport by a great stamp. Overall, however, the tour was a lot of fun and I can recommend the tour even despite the long journey and the changes. However, these changes should be communicated by the operator. Tripadvisor - I am curious about the proposed solution!!

The adventurous way to see Rainbow Mt.
Overall if you have an inkling of wanting to see Rainbow Mt. (Montana Vinikunka) and ride ATVs this one is for you. Don’t be afraid, the crew gave us helmets, the “basics” and some “practice time”. After that the views, vistas, and awesome surroundings grab you hard! From alpacas grazing on the slopes to the snow capped Andes, and finally the extremely unique colors of the “Rainbow” Mt. We climbed up to the top of the adjoining Mt. To take awe inspiring photos of the rare surroundings. Riding the ATVs was the frosting on the day. While the best laid plans can sometimes go awry, Dino and his crew saved the day and gave us an unforgettable experience.

Not worth it
I’ll start with the positive: the view is breathtaking! Truthfully, this tour is WAY too long! It took about 5 hours there and 5 hours back on very scary mountain roads with dangerous turns. We were gone a total of 15 hours. The tour seemed very unorganized. Our tour driver was probably the scariest driver I have ever rode with. He passed cars in the no passing zone around corners. Breakfast was wonderful but “lunch” (more like dinner) was cold and not tasty. A guy came on our bus after the mountain and made everyone pay 25 sols. Everyone on the bus was very confused by this since the tour said it included entrance fees. He even wrote the names down of the people who paid and almost felt bullied into paying him. The guide for the ATV’s did not specify a time for everyone to look at the mountain. We were up there over an hour with the very cold winds. Several people were ready to leave but the group had to wait on the two people still looking at the mountain. It was about 35 degrees and very windy so everyone was cold while we had to wait. Overall, I would say save your money and book a different tour.

ATV's in Rainbow Mountain full day: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does ATV's in Rainbow Mountain full day cost?
+
Prices start at $64 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 ATV's in Rainbow Mountain full day take?
+
Plan for about 12 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 ATV's in Rainbow Mountain full day worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.7/5 across 6 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 ATV's in Rainbow Mountain full day?
+
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 ATV's in Rainbow Mountain full day suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book ATV's in Rainbow Mountain full day?
+
Around 2 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 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does ATV's in Rainbow Mountain full day 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, Full-Day Humantay Lake Trek (Meals Included), 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.
What is included in ATV's in Rainbow Mountain full day?
+
Included: first aid kit; tour guide; Lunch; Breakfast; and ATV. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does ATV's in Rainbow Mountain full day include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 237 listed pickup locations in and around Cusco. Be ready about 20 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
