About this experience
For anyone who wants to know the mountain of colors, you should know that you can take advantage of a new route that will allow you to pass through the famous Red Valley. Without a doubt, this tour is the perfect complement for nature-loving travelers. A small canyon with a red soil that covers almost 95% of its surface. It is undoubtedly one of the natural wonders that most impact in Cusco. This route is relatively new but in a short time it gained great importance and popularity for national and foreign visitors. the red valley is located on the Vinicunca route. Formerly it was completely covered in snow, although there are still seasons that is covered in snow throughout the valley. Due to the reddish color of the valley and the proximity to the mountain of Vinicunca, this red valley has become Vinicunca’s first sister. At the moment the red valley receives approximately 500 daily tourists between nationals and foreigners.

Amazing
Wow. I'm so glad we saw this after seeing Rainbow Mountain. We paid an extra 20 soles but it is so worth it. It is like you are on Mars! I've never seen a landscape like it. It is also so much quieter than the nearby Rainbow Mountain so you can get pictures without having to queue up! Amazing experience.

Other Planet near the rainbow Mountain!!
Some friends advised us about the red valley, we were thinking about it and finally decided to visit it along our tour to the rainbow mountain. This place is an other planet! We hiked on our way back from the rainbow mountain and saw all the red soil along the valley with amazing views of the mountains and a lot of llamas and alpacas along the way. On the rainbow mountain part we saw a lot of people hiking, but on the red valley we were only a few ones, we felt lucky because not all people is along the red valley. We higly recommend to visit the red valley while you go to the rainbow mountain.

Why this scores 54
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Red Valley Cusco - Full Day Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does Red Valley Cusco - Full Day Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $95 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 Red Valley Cusco - Full Day Tour take?
+
Plan for about 13 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 Red Valley Cusco - Full Day Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Red Valley Cusco - Full Day Tour?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Red Valley Cusco - Full Day Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 15. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 13-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Red Valley Cusco - 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 13-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Red Valley Cusco - 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.
