All inclusive!
From Cusco, we start the tour in the early morning, until we reach Soraypampa (the landscape is hermso). The nearly two-hour walk to the lagoon is a bit rough, you can carry canes if you find it difficult, but it was totally worth it. Upon arrival, the stunning turquoise color of the lagoon, surrounded by majestic snow-capped mountains, left us speechless. We spent time enjoying the scenery, we sat for a while taking pictures and only contemplating. It is important to mention what it includes since we bring enough food since with my girlfriend we did not know, but we could still share with people. It includes breakfast, lunch and a professional guide who accompanied us throughout the journey. Undoubtedly an unforgettable experience in the Peruvian Andes. Highly recommended!
Response from the operator: Nos sentimos honrados de haber compartido varios momentos especiales contigo. Nos encanta mostrar la belleza de Perú y nos alegra que hayas elegido IZI PERU más de una vez. ¡Esperamos verte pronto en tu próximo viaje!

Cusco : Humantay Lake Hike - Guided Hiking with Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does Cusco : Humantay Lake Hike - Guided Hiking with Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $45 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 Cusco : Humantay Lake Hike - Guided Hiking with Lunch 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 Cusco : Humantay Lake Hike - Guided Hiking with Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 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 Cusco : Humantay Lake Hike - Guided Hiking with Lunch?
+
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 Cusco : Humantay Lake Hike - Guided Hiking with Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 12-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Cusco : Humantay Lake Hike - Guided Hiking with Lunch?
+
Around 0 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 Cusco : Humantay Lake Hike - Guided Hiking with Lunch 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.
