The Humantay Lake trek is very adventurous as you immerse yourself in the Peruvian Andes between mountains and Apus. You start walking from Soraypampa with beautiful views and if the sky is clear enough, you can even see the impressive Apus Salkantay Humantay (The Apus are the spirits of the mountains).

Wonderful experience

5.00I had a wonderful experience on the 1-day excursion to Laguna Humantay with Magic Experiences Peru. Everything was very well organized from the start; the transportation was comfortable, the food was delicious, and the guide was always attentive and kind to all the travelers. The commitment and good energy of the team is evident in making sure each person enjoys the tour safely and specially. The hike was a challenge due to the altitude, but reaching and seeing the impressive turquoise lagoon surrounded by snow-capped mountains made it all completely worth it. It was one of the most beautiful landscapes I have seen in Peru. I am very grateful to Magic Experiences Peru for this beautiful and unforgettable experience. I definitely recommend them for getting to know Humantay and experiencing a unique adventure in Cusco.

Magical experiences at 1000%

5.00On this trip I went as a family with my cousin and it was really spectacular. We went not only to the Humantay Lagoon but also to the mountain of 7 colors, the Ballestas Islands and the Huacachina Desert. We live magical experiences. The guides are one of the best, they tell you many stories and not only take in the memory spectacular views but you take unique stories. The restaurants that took us from these tours also had delicious and very typical Peruvian food. In short, I 100% recommend Magic Experiences Peru to reach those places in this beautiful country that they dream so much.
Peru, a great experience thanks to Magic
