Perolniyoq Waterfall
Lo recogeremos de su hotel a las 6:00 a.m. para iniciar nuestro viaje por el Valle Sagrado hasta llegar al poblado de Pachar, donde realizaremos una breve parada antes de continuar hacia la comunidad de Socma. Durante el trayecto podrá disfrutar de hermosos paisajes andinos. Al llegar, comenzaremos una caminata hacia el centro arqueológico de Racaypata (3,550 m s. n. m.), donde nuestro guía explicará la historia y función de este antiguo sitio construido en piedra y barro. Luego continuaremos descendiendo entre impresionantes paisajes hasta llegar a la catarata de Perolniyoc (3,460 m s. n. m.), una espectacular caída de agua de aproximadamente 100 metros rodeada de naturaleza pura. Aquí podrá disfrutar del aire fresco, tomar fotografías y, si desea, darse un pequeño baño en sus aguas cristalinas. Después de la experiencia, retornaremos a Urubamba para disfrutar de un delicioso almuerzo tradicional y finalmente regresaremos a Cusco, dejándolo en su hotel.

Why this scores 49
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls cost?
+
Prices start at $160 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 Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls?
+
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 Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls?
+
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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls 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 Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls?
+
Included: Lunch; Round-trip transportation (tourist bus); and English-speaking Tour Guide. Not included: Tips; water bottle; and extras that are not mentioned in the package. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 152 listed pickup locations in and around Cusco. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls offered in?
+
It is offered in Portuguese, English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Trek to Perolniyoc Waterfalls if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Cusco. Standard cancellation terms apply.
