1.Vinicunca Rainbow Mountain ATV Tour with Meals

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 1,060 reviews · 12 - 14 hours · from $76Our pick

Ride an automatic ATV from Kayrawiri toward Vinicunca, then walk to the famous striped summit at about 5,000 meters. Guides such as Cesar, Jose, Abel, and Angie handle safety, altitude checks, photos, and bilingual explanations. Breakfast and lunch are included, but bring warm layers and budget 25 soles for entry.

“Great trip, fantastic experience on the ATVs and felt safe the entire time. Breakfast and lunch were also good, good selection of food and the transport was good. The walk up to rainbow mountain after the atv can be quite tough with altitude but if you take your time more than doable for those with average fitness. Overall experience was great, was back in Cusco around 5pm after 4am start. Would recommend for a unique experience to rainbow mountain, the guide was excellent”

I feel like the ATV adventure should be highlighted more - we drove through the city, the country side, rural area, got pictures all over the city and countryside!

8.Mountain of colors and red valley on ATVs

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 66 reviews · 11 hours · from $68

Leave Cusco at 3:30 AM for an ATV ride through the Red Valley, followed by a walk to Rainbow Mountain. Breakfast and lunch are included, with guides speaking English, Spanish, or Portuguese. Oxygen and first aid are provided. You can also pay local villagers for a motorcycle ride closer to the summit.

“What a day! I won’t lie, we were absolutely dreading the 3:30am start, but it was so worth it. The drive to the ATV centre is quite long, however it is a good chance to have a nap if you can. The ATV driving was really fun and we saw some great scenery. The rainbow mountain is amazing and the guides are right to get you there so early, as there is a lot less people there before 9am! Be careful with the altitude, but the guide does bring oxygen if needed! The optional red valley trek is challenging, however the views at the top were amazing. Food was okay,…”

9.Rainbow Mountain in ATV Quad Bikes + meals

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 60 reviews · 12h 30m · from $77

You’ll leave Cusco before sunrise for Pitumarca, ride an ATV toward Vinicunca, then walk about six minutes to the famous colored slopes. Breakfast, lunch, transport, fuel, oxygen, and a bilingual guide are included. The long road journey and basic meals require patience, but the ATV makes the mountain easier to reach.

“O café da manha e almoço oferecidos sao vergonhosos. Local péssimo, sem nenhuma infraestrutura, banheiro precário, poucas opções e comida ruim. O guia nao nos passou muitas informações sobre o local e dormiu na van durante praticamente todo trajeto. Ja o motorista, fez ultrapassagens perigosas e corria bastante. Apesar disso, a parte dos quadriciclos é legal e a montanha é incrivelmente bonita. Vale ressaltar que a parte de estrada de chao da viagem é extremamente perigosa, estradas estreitas, sem acostamento e com abismos ao lado.”

10.Huaypoo Lagoon and Maras by Quad Bike – ATV

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 53 reviews · 6 hours · from $40

Ride a single or double ATV from Cruz Pata to Huaypo Lagoon, with views of Verónica and Chicón. A bilingual guide such as Floyd or Carlos leads the route, then you visit the Maras salt mines by bus. The six-hour trip includes Cusco pickup, safety gear, and transport, but not the S/15 salt mine ticket or lunch.

“Overall is a good value for the money. The stop at the lagoon is basically a toilet stop for an additional 5 soles: a waste of time before arriving back to base in 5 minutes after that. Maras is a second part, on a bus again. Cool place.”

“Rough 4 hour ride to the mountains. It was our 2nd day in high altitude. So altitude sickness was unbearable. I recommend staying at least 4 days in Cusco before taking the Rainbow Mt. tour. The scenery was out of this world. I took pictures with Alpacas which was nice. Franklin, our guide was very hands on with our problems. Very informative. I recommend this tour.”
