Itinerary
- 1Get to know the Humantay Lagoon, a jewel of nature on the Salkantay apu route. In this mirror of water of Mollepata (Anta, Cusco), diverse adventurous activities can be realized In a destination like Cusco, where there is so much to see and know, it is common that places of great interest are ignored by most visitors. The list is long and includes archaeological zones, communities loaded with tradition and natural areas that move for their beauty. Perhaps those spaces just mentioned in the tourist guides, are those that -in some way- encourage you to return again and again to the ancient capital of the Incas. And it is nice to return, for example, to discover the Mirador de Cóndores de Chonta in Limatambo (Anta, Cusco) and, why not, the Humantay Lagoon (4 300 m.s.), the mirror of water that accompanies these words.
About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- francescacE317LL0 contributionsMachu PicchuI normally travel independently but decided to book with Inti Paradise for my trip to Machu Picchu after I met the lovely Marilia whilst enquiring after organised trips. She was helpful, efficient and lovely! The trip itself was amazing and everyone involved with the organisation including Rosa in Machu Picchu pueblo (Agua Calientes) and Jesus my tour guide inside Machu Picchu ensured the experience was one not to be forgotten. Thank you!Written March 19, 2024
- Storyteller7947460 contributionsBest tour for MachupicchuTour agency gave me a reasonable price. Machupicchu ticket + breakfast and lunch + vehicles + English tour guide. Less than 100 dollars (As I found, you pay more than 100 dollars doing all by yourself.) Also you stay 1 more night in hostel oncenyou pay 40 soles more. (That hostel is 120 soles per night.) I relieved all my muscle at hot spring after I enjoyed tour. I recommend this tour for you, travelers!Written January 22, 2024
- Fearless015355248420 contributionsAmazing trip the Inca Trail with Raull was did the Inca Trail through this company, with Marilia Chavez and she gave me correct information, super good guide Raul extremely recommend this guide, I traveled quite a lot and this is level up of my experienceWritten December 1, 2022
- Lea_danclav0 contributionsPerfect cheap tourWe did the machu picchu tour and everything was perfect. It was cheaper than every other agency for the same services. Our guide Julio was very nice.Written June 17, 2022
- Daisy02190 contributionsPalccoyo trip, might be the other option you might consider.We participated the tour to Palccoyo, the other rainbow mountain trip. This trip is very suitable for my husband and I, as the start time is 6:50 and we only have to hike around 40-60 min to catch the view. The lunch is buffet, which is delicious. The only problem is the guide only speaks a little English. Anyway, we enjoy the view on the mountain, as we are luck that the weather is nice when we are on the top, and on the road, seeing lots of alpaca.Written December 22, 2019

I would definitively book with them again. Hands down.
We had Cesar and Erick for 3 days and they were awesome. Very knowledgeable, and even going out of their way to make our experience as enjoyable as possible. They were also very sensitive to the fact that we were not accustomed to high altitude and made trip and activities as comfortable as possible for us.
David was Our guide in Machu Picchu, and he was superb.
I made a mistake when i set up my tickets online for Machu Picchu and I was being denied entrance; even though it was MY MISTAKE they immediately took charge and made sure that the problem was solved so my wife and I could actually enter the park.
Bottom line: 10/10.
You cannot go wrong with them.

We did 3 tours with Inti Paradise...
Humantay Lake:
This tour was well organised and fun. The guide was attentive and it was a fun experience. The hike itself was pretty tour due to altitude but the view at the top was incredible.
Rainbow Mountain:
This tour was well organised as well. Great choice for buffet lunch (I’m vegetarian). Guide was great, mountain was beautiful. Again, a tough hike at altitude.
Machu Picchu:
We chose the van option that drives 7 hours to reach hydroelectrica which you much then walk the 3 hours to Aguas Caliente. The van was cramped for 17 people and there was no air conditioning (very hot at the back). After the walk we were told to meet in the square to find our guide. This process was very unorganised and we waited for 40 minutes, asking different people if they were our guide. Eventually a woman who had been stood there all along playing a game on her phone came over to us.
We were given our ticket for Machu Picchu and hotel directions for Hotel Del Sol. When we arrived at the hotel there was an issue with the room (2 single beds instead of a double), we asked to move and were given a room upstairs again with 2 single beds. This room had an en-suite bathroom and the water for shower was freezing cold. We were moved again finally to a double bed room with another en-suite but the toilet was broken in that room. We decided to use that bedroom and we were to use the bathroom from the other room (hot water had been turned on).
This meant we had a key for each room. In the morning I unlocked the other room with the key to use the bathroom and there were guests sleeping in the beds. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE! I immediately left and therefore had to use the broken toilet in our own room. There was also a powercut in the morning which seemed to only effect our hotel. Horrendous place to stay!
The evening before we were given dinner in a restaurant which was incredibly rushed. The 2 course dinner was small and did not include any drink, we had to pay for a soft drink/water. After the dinner we went to get a pizza because we were still hungry.
The hike to Macchi Picchu and tour around the pace was great despite the heavy rain and mist. However the breakfast I was given for that day included a meat sandwich when I specifically asked for vegetarian. This meant I didn’t eat anything until lunchtime and we were up at 5am.
Overall I wouldn’t recommend booking this tour with Inti Paradise as it was completely unorganised and felt like the guests were not considered at all. We paid a lot of money for the inconvenience of a poor hotel and rubbish meals.

Primero agradecerles por su opinión y referencia en este medio, si bien es cierto nuestra especialidad es operar todo tipo de circuitos en la región de Cusco y otras partes de Perú; y por tal razón le agradecemos la acotación que nos da; no queremos justificar sin tener responsabilidad de los exabruptos que hubo en su recorrido hacia Machupicchu pero lamentablemente con este suceso del COVID - 19 casi la mayoría de la población de Aguas Calientes se asusto y retiro de sus empresas así que tuvimos que buscar la mejor opción en ese momento y como se le explico el recorrido de MACHUPICCHU POR CARRO es duro por el mismo tiempo de viaje y también por las carreteras no son bien acondicionadas por tal razón preferimos informar a nuestros clientes el tipo de viaje cosa distinta que es hacer la visita MACHUPICCHU POR TREN donde los acondicionamientos son totalmente distinto pero también los costos son muy variables, tratamos de hacer lo imposible por remediar la incomodidad de la habitación pero recuerde que ese no fue error nuestro si no la terminología distinta que se usa ya que cuando se le consulto el tipo de habitación que deseaba me dijo matrimonial y para nosotros es una cama de 2 plazas (alojamiento básico) cosa que para ustedes no es. Bueno en realidad como dije en un inicio hubo algunas descordicinaciones por eso buscamos darles opciones para mejorar el servicio en el momento nuestro guía busco la mejor forma de remediar la molestia pero por lo que entendemos no fue así, disculparnos con ustedes y agradecerles ya que esto nos servirá para tener mayor cuidado con nuestros clientes, si alguna vez retornan a Cusco no duden en visitarnos para poder cambiar la opinión de ustedes hacia nuestra empresa y así darles algún recorrido liberado (sin costo alguno)

We booked with them to go to Rainbow Mountain. We were staying a little out of the city center but the guy who sold it to me called the owner, she gave him the green light so we were supposed to be picked up from our apartment between 4:10-4:30 AM. Well, we all woke up 3:15 AM, got ready and kept looking out the window. At 3:55 AM we spot a van outside. I stick my head out and the van is not parked, is leaving... So I think to myself "that's not it". We keep on waiting and at 4:20 I manage to get a hold of the owner's number to ask what's going on and if they are still coming. 30 seconds into the call she asks me to shut up and explains that her drive was waiting outside our place, honking, banging on doors! Come on... The building door was a metal garage door. You bang that and you wake up the death. He didn't knock neither bang on any door. She says we made the driver be late to pick up the rest of the people. If the van we saw was indeed the tour van... 1. It was driving away not parked nor honking nor banging on any doors. 2. It was 3:50 AM, they told us 4:10-4:30. So at 4:20 AM we proceed to jog to the meeting point. Once on the tour the only good thing was the actual mountain. They lost someone on the hike and had to wait to recover that person. Then they rushed us from lake to lake. All I can say is organization was a joke. On top of it all that lady being patronizing on the phone telling me it was all my fault and that she was right didn't help their cause. I was gonna book sacred valley tour with them but after that experience didn't trust them. I would not recommend them. There's thousands of agencies in Cusco. Shop around and you will find a better deal. I myself work with tourist, I'm experienced in customer service and itinerary planning. This is no way to treat your customers.

Buenos días, estimada clienta por favor le. Pediría que nos envíe su voucher de reserva (info@intiparadise.com) ya que no tengo registrado su nombre probablemente hay una equivocación en su referencia, así podre hacer mi descargo ya que quien le escribe es quien hace las llamadas o se comunica con todos los pasajeros por si hubiese algún problema y yo (Marilia) no recuerdo haber hablado con usted, sin embargo nosotros no trabajamos con camionetas para la. Montaña de 7 colores solo se trabajan con carros de 20 pasajeros, siento el. Inconveniente te que tuvo pero no fue con nuestra empresa

I booked the tour "Montaña de 7 colores" with them. A very tiring walk of 2 to 3 hrs to the top and all you get for breakfast is bread with dulce the leche not even butter or marmelade. I would have prefered that they tell me in advance to bring snacks with me, so at least I would have been prepared...
