A marvel.

bryanallenromot, May 2026

The route to Ausangate is one of the most impressive things you can do in Cusco. Riding the quad up is great and makes the journey entertaining; the landscapes while ascending are absolutely wonderful and take your breath away. Upon reaching the top, the lagoon is beautiful, with an incredible color, but the real highlight is the unique opportunity to get close and touch the glacier. Being in front of that mass of ice is something else. ​ The organization of the agency was impeccable from start to finish. They were in constant contact with me before and during the tour, which provided a lot of peace of mind. But the best part of all was the guide, Grimaldo; he was a seven. He was incredibly attentive and concerned for every member of the group at all times, ensuring that we were comfortable with the altitude and enjoying the route safely. Totally recommended. My recommendation is not to underestimate the cold.

The experience on the tour was excellent! Our guide Wilfredo was the maximum, he was always attentive to us, he supported us a lot in both up and down, the information he gave us was the best. It also gave us the freedom to drive at our own pace as well. We will definitely come back and look for him!
