Can not recommend these guys enough!! On the day we summited Huyana Potosi only 6/17 people managed to summit, going with and organised, reputable company really helped here. They organised the trekking to give us as much time to acclimatise as possible. Our guide Silverio was very knowledgeable, professional and hilarious. The gear was a little worn but great quality. And the accommodation was comfy and cosy.
For something like mountaineering paying a little bit extra was very worth it, if you want to summit go with Climbing South America

I had been recommended Climbing South America and was really glad I chose them for Huyani Potosi.
I am an absolute novice when it comes to ice climbing etc and they were really supportive whilst also pushing me on the treks.
I wanted to ensure that I used a company that would provide the highest levels of care and attention.
All our team summited on the day and I have no doubt it was down to the team in place from Climbing South America.
The preparation they provided ensured we were ready for what is a very challenging trek.
From the food, the information and the attitude of the guys that keeps everyone's spirits high.
Thanks to everyone particularly Andreas who got us up to the top of the mountain.

I did the long hike up to Huayma Potosi with JIWAKI tour company in La Paz and really enjoyed it. They had an ample supply of gear, and great, safe, an informed guides. It was a very difficult hike for me, but well worth the effort. Great experience all around.

I found Huayana Potosi very challenging but definitely worth it. I know it's described as a beginner mountain and the "the easiest 6000 metre peak in the world" but it will push you hard.
Climbing South America was excellent. Ana and Giselle were very helpful, provided me with good gear,advice and an excellent English speaking guide - Alex. Alex is a first class guide and just the person I needed to help me get to the top.

I initially booked a 3 day Huayna Potosi hike with Climbing South America. The reason I picked them was how responsive to my WhatsApp messages and how professional and knowledgeable they were. During my trip, my guides were very professional and attentive, the equipment they provided was good. I am grateful that they made my Huayna Potosi dream came true. After my satisfaction level, I also booked a 3 day Uyuni trip with them. Again the same experience. Excellent service! I already referred them to a friend and I would refer them to anybody!
Thank you guys. You made my Bolivia experience that much better and I really appreciate it!

We did the 3 day 2 night climb of Potosi...it did not disappoint! We went through Climbing South America and our guide was Silverio, he was an absolute legend!! He made the 3 days so easy and enjoyable, always cracking jokes and making sure we were going ok. Food was great the whole trip (and there was heaps of it!), always coca tea on hand too which is nice at the altitude. Everything was included in our trip, some other companies did not include entry or food extras like Climbing South America do. We wouldn’t have climbed with anyone else!!

Hola. Estoy interesado para las fechas del 9 al 12 de abril 2020 pero cuando reservo me aparece q es de 2 días de escalada. Es esto correcto? Y otra pregunta es cuántas personas es el mínimo para que se confirme la excursión?
Written December 4, 2019
El viaje de 3 días tiene un día de práctica en el glaciar inferior, el día 2 es trekking hasta el campamento alto y el último día es el día de la cumbre.
