Had such a good time on this tour, the views are amazing, the food is good and I found the walk up to the top very manageable, even with the altitude. What really made it a great tour though was Marco, our guide, who was so knowledgeable, kind and funny - our driver was also lovely. Would definitely recommend to anyone considering rainbow mountain!

The journey to the mountain of colors was great! We enjoyed every part of it. I am not going to lie we did have a difficult time due to the oxygen limitation but our tour guide was the best, very attentive in every way possible in order for us to complete the mission! Climbing to the top was very gratifying in every sense and it made every minute worth it.
