Rainbow Mountain Tour Where to even begin! It was my cousin & my... read more first time visiting Peru (which is an absolutely breathtaking country in itself), and thankfully with the private tour provided to us by VSA, our experience became so much more memorable. We did the Rainbow Mountain tour fully planned and accommodated by our amazing guide, Hilton Davila. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable in providing us information throughout our tour and super helpful with any questions asked, but he was also so passionate and enthusiastic about what he does which made all of the difference in the quality of our experience. Our day started off with a private bus picking us up at 4am from our hotel that we were staying at. Although waking up this early is excruciatingly painful, the reasoning behind doing so was to arrive at and explore Rainbow Mountain early before crowds of people began to show up, which I thought was so well-planned out by VSA and definitely worth it. About halfway through the drive there, we stopped to get lunch at a local restaurant provided by VSA which was very delicious. We finally arrived at Rainbow Mountain and it honestly felt like entering a different world, having the place all to ourselves. Experiencing this place before other people arrived truly was phenomenal. Having panoramic views of mountains and fields for miles and miles, being entranced by the stillness and beauty of this sacred place, was... Where to even begin!

Experiencing this place before other people arrived truly was phenomenal. Having panoramic views of mountains and fields for miles and miles, being entranced by the stillness and beauty of this sacred place, was entirely out of this world. Additionally, on the trail, we encountered the nicest locals and the cutest alpacas! As we arrived at the top of the mountain, once again, it felt like having the place all to ourselves- an absolutely indescribable feeling of being connected and one with nature. We stayed a couple hours up there to relax, reflect, take pictures, explore, and simply indulge ourselves in the moment and take in as much as possible.

Overall, our Rainbow Mountain tour by Hilton exceeded expectations and was worth every moment. My only regret is that I did not book a longer tour with them! If you want an experience that is genuine and authentic, then VSA is the company you want to book with. Everything about our tour was planned out perfectly and so much fun, thanks to this amazing team and their passion for adventure. I’ll definitely be booking again with VSA next time I come back to South America 🙂 More read less
