The hiking was a miserable experience, food and accommodation was ok. The guide was pleasant enough but mostly absent and clearly didn't want to be there. Scenery was nice but the hiking was rough, in places quite dangerous, relentless and not enjoyable. It wasn't an achievement, more of a relief to be over. The best bit was the limited time at the hot springs on the last day. Lots of pressure for timings on last day and the lunch you need to buy was not great value for money. However, you didn't have much choice. I can't say I recommend it.

Rafael was a superb guide and taught us many things about the people and history of the region, as well as the plants and animals - and helped us practice our Spanish. He managed a big group of 13 very well - including when one member had altitude sickness (we stayed in Arequipa for 3 full days before and were fine, but it’s worth having medication handy - despite the trek starting at 3300m, the bus out there passes 4900m). The 3 day hike definitely seems the best option as opposed to the 2 day hike (we were very happy we booked the 3 day option). 21km and 9 hours of hiking seems nothing for 2 days. But descending over 1000m with no shade and extremely high UV is very tough. Followed by 3 more hours of ups and downs would be hard going for one day - particularly when you have to get up at 4am the following day to hike the 3 hours back up the 1000m ascent. We loved the 3 day option as it was more laid back, there was more opportunity to pause and take in the beauty of the canyon, as well as relax in the afternoons and evenings. It’s a really interesting loop hike - starting in dusty, rocky terrain with condors flying overhead, to green villages and terraces along the river. It’s a hugely rewarding experience! One of our favourite things we’ve done in Peru. And though it’s busy, once you’re in the villages, they feel surprisingly off the main gringo trail. They’re genuine traditional valley villages, where donkey is still the main method of transportation (and useful for anyone who needs one to take them out of the canyon on the following morning). A bonus outside the trek is the amazing drive through the Andes with Condors and Vicuñas - the hot springs are okay, if not a bit busy (I found the river more refreshing after a hot morning’s climb). The included meals are great, with huge portions (hugely appreciated after lots of hiking) - and they were all very accommodating of two coeliacs and vegetarians in the group. The accommodation is much more luxurious than expected - we had a private room with a double bed and en-suite both nights. A few pieces of advice: - The UV is higher than you’ll expect. At points it feels like you’re being cooked. Wear long sleeved tops, trousers if possible and a very good hat! All the guides and locals barely have any skin on show. We were advised to reapply sunscreen every 40 minutes FYI. - Brings more snacks than you think. Breakfast is after the hike on the final morning. And you eat lunch when all your party has arrived at the accommodation - so depending on fitness levels, it could be a while! - Drink more water than you think. We brought along purification tablets, and 2 1L bottles each, and we still felt dehydrated. You can buy water out there, it’s expensive but some places a 1L bottle was 5 soles, so okay. - Take advantage of the river on day 1 (strangely the hardest day) to cool off after a hot hike! - It’s cool in the evenings but there’s no need for thermals, maybe a jumper and some linen trousers. There are mosquitos on day 2 so insect repellent is a good idea. Have fun, it’s an amazing trek! The only thing we didn’t enjoy was the final lunch. It isn’t included and is expensive - 40 soles for a slightly rubbish buffet lunch. Being dropped off somewhere nicer in Chivay would be a better option.

The Colca Canyon is an incredible place, and we had a lot of fun hiking through it. Our guide Ivan was amazing, he gave us a lot of information about the canyon, and helped us with everything we needed. The lodging and food were excellent, and on the second day there was a very nice pool available. For this route there is a two day as well as a three day option. We did the three day one, and I would highly recommend this option unless you have a high fitness level. The route is streneous, and with the two day option the first day is very long. With three days there is also more time to enjoy the canyon. Especially the second day was nice for us, because after hiking in the morning we had time left to spend by the pool before the sun went down.

This was a challenging, yet rewarding 3 day trek through Colca Canyon. Our tour guide, Eric, was a pleasure to hang out with and very knowledgeable about the area, its history, and very helpful. I cannot recommend this enough - it's a phenomenal value for the money. I would recommend taking the 3 day tour instead of the 2. The two day is a bit rushed (in my opinion).
