This was one of the best trips I’ve ever taken thanks to Puma Expeditions!! My husband and I traveled with a group of 9 total on our trip to Cusco, our main guide Jorge was excellent leader for the group! It was a trip filled with education and exploration. Our guide for our 2 days Machu Picchu adventure was Miguel. He was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the Inca history.
Thanks to everyone at Puma Expeditions for the trip of a lifetime!!

Humantay is a snow peak mountain (19570 ft.) that feeds to a small turquoise lagoon the melting snow creates the lagoon that is (13870 ft.) meters above sea level.
It takes approximately about an hour and a half to climb the mountain from Soraypampa (12565 ft.) which is the camp from which the walk begins.
The lagoon is surrounded by an incredible view of the mountains of the Vilcabamba mountain range including the Salkantay (20570 ft.) is definitely a small day hike that should not be missed while in visiting Cusco.

What people are saying about this tour!!
Really good experience to visit Humantay Mountain. My girlfriend and I didn't have to worry about the altitude sickness our tour guide Jorge was friendly and helpful. Best of all we had free time in Peru, we give excellent recommendations to Puma expeditions.
