About this experience
The Mountain of 7 colors or Rainbow Mountain, are names used by local people to call this beautiful place (Vinincunca - Arcoiris), is located in the Department of Cusco between the provinces of Quispicanchis and Canchis. This mountain is special because it is possible to see the colors of the rainbow and depending on the season and climatic conditions is appreciated with greater or less intensity, to this spectacular view is added the combination of the snowy mountains of the Vilcanota mountain range, see South American camelids such as llamas, alpacas, vicuñas and with a little luck we can see the condor, the largest bird in the world flying over the mountains. For this and many reasons was included by "National Geographic" as one of the 100 places that one must visit before leaving to the afterlife

Mesmerizing experience-Rainbow Mountain
I had an amazing experience of Rainbow Mountain tour with our guide Guido from Inkas Destination company. He was very patient and adjusted as per our requirements . He was very informative and helped in dealing with altitude sickness. He was well organized and managed the time well. Doing a private tour was worth it .

Mountain with 7 colors & Machu Picchu, an incredible adventure!
We were a camp of 24 kids and 3, and we spent 4 incredible days with Luis at Machu Picchu and the 7 colors Mountain. It was great from start to finish! Luis captivated the whole group with his incredible knowledge of Peru and Inca civilization. He gave us more than information: true values, with passion, simplicity and authenticity. We were fascinated by the young people! Thank you for everything! I recommend!!

Amazing Rainbow mountain hike!
We had a great time trekking up to Rainbow Mountain for our full day tour. We were very well taken care of, especially given that it was our first time climbing to such high an altitude. Our guide was extremely helpful, informative and took the time to make sure we were comfortable during our trip. Would highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Thank you for the comment on the Rainbow Mountain , this motivates us to continue improving every day for our clients.

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Rainbow Mountain Full Day Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does Rainbow Mountain Full Day Tour 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 Rainbow Mountain Full Day Tour take?
+
Plan for about 0.2 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 Rainbow Mountain Full Day Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 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 Rainbow Mountain Full Day Tour?
+
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 Rainbow Mountain Full Day Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 7. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 0.2-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Rainbow Mountain Full Day Tour?
+
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 0.2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Rainbow Mountain Full Day Tour 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.
