    Thank you Apu Ausangate Trek!

    We booked a tour for 3 persons with horse riding. We highly recommend them as everything went smooth, and Ricardo, our guide was great. Tasty breakfast and lunch also.

    7 lagoons ausangate

    The best decision we made was to add the horses to this tour as the hike requires a lot of physical effort, the agency was in charge of organizing everything perfectly, as discussed from the beginning.

    A magical experience in Ausangate

    I had the privilege to take the tour with this agency and have the most beautiful experience of my life. We decided to do the Ausangate with horses and it was the best decision as horses help too much at that height. From communication with the company and professionalism of the guide Juan and our rider who were a great job. Thank you very much APU AUSANGATE TREK for the professionalism and unforgettable experience.

    Horseback riding in Ausangate 7 lakes full day private: questions travelers ask

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

    How does Horseback riding in Ausangate 7 lakes full day private compare to similar tours in Cusco?

    +

    It ranks #7 of the 7 similar experiences we compared in Cusco, with an Outty Ranking of 61. At $150 it sits above the typical similar option ($43), so book it for what is included rather than price. Best for families and travelers who want a full-day outing.

    Who is Horseback riding in Ausangate 7 lakes full day private best for?

    +

    It suits families and travelers who want a full-day outing best, based on its 12-hour length, all-ages access and free cancellation up to 24 hours before.

    Is Horseback riding in Ausangate 7 lakes full day private good value?

    +

    It is a premium pick. It starts at $150, above the $43 typical for similar experiences in Cusco.

    How much does Horseback riding in Ausangate 7 lakes full day private cost?

    +

    Prices start at $150 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 Horseback riding in Ausangate 7 lakes full day private 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 Horseback riding in Ausangate 7 lakes full day private worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 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 Horseback riding in Ausangate 7 lakes full day private?

    +

    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 Horseback riding in Ausangate 7 lakes full day private 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 Horseback riding in Ausangate 7 lakes full day private?

    +

    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 Horseback riding in Ausangate 7 lakes full day private 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), Full-Day Rainbow Mountain Trek (Meals Included). 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.
