5.00What an incredible experience! Colca is a special place, with beautiful landscapes, its a privilege to be able to walk amoung the mountains. Santi is everything you want from a guide he's fun, knowledgeable, caring and with a high level of competency. He holds a really enriching ceremony in a sacred part of the conyon. This will stay with me forever. Thank you Santi. The lodge is perfect, nestled in the canyon with warm springs to sooth your muscles ofter a day's walking. What more could you ask for?! Go with an open heart and mind, and you will reap the rewards.

5.00What a wonderful unforgettable experience. There was with a group of 8 of us, and it was truly a gift to share this with people that I’ve grown to cherish. The views at Colca was one of the most humbling and empowering views I’ve ever seen in my life. All around is the magic of the mountains, all around is a sense of reverence and connectivity, and the animals you will meet along the way will center you deeper into your experience. Santi is a great guide and has years and years of experience with this trek to lean on. He also has a beautiful way of creating an atmosphere that is both fun and sacred and it seems like everything he touches has an element of magic in it. I definitely recommend him as a guide, and i recommend this experience. Hours of trekking with beautiful small ceremonies along the way. Beautiful chants and songs and moments to pray. And the thermal pools at the end of the day is a sensational plus. We also got to go to a climbing festival on the way back to town and rock climbed for some time. Which was a first for me. A very satisfy experience. Yes, the trek can be demanding of the body, but this is part of the medicine, to push to body and surpass the limits of the mind and to focus on the beauty of the journey. Muchas gracias :)
Best ever Colca Canyon experience

5.00I did a tour with Santi round Colca canyon, and had an incredible time. The geography of the area is immense with fast landscapes and amazing views all round. We spent a full day hiking round the canyon in a circuit visiting a emense waterfall, and enjoying time to connect spirituality to this sacred valley.. Santi is a caring knowledgable and amazing guy who will give you an amazing tour of colca canyon he speaks both spanish and english for international visitors. The lodging was amazing and we enjoyed the hostprings they had on site, I stayed in there all night. Gracias Runachay tours for an amazing time..

5.00We took the tour with a group of friends from a workaway. It was absolutely amazing! The hike took several hours through beautiful landscapes until we reached the waterfall, where Santi introduced us to a spiritual world. We were able to take a bath before making our way down again. The hot springs are a perfect finish for the trip. A lot of really interesting thoughts and memories stick to me until today from this beautiful adventure!
