  • While we were in Cusco, we made it our goal to also visit rainbow mountain. When you walk around town there are so many tours and options to visit so many cool places.
    Rainbow mountain was a super nice experience. The tour that we booked included a pick up and drop off from hotel, "English speaking" tour guide, breakfast and lunch.
    One of the biggest challenges was the long hike that was roughly 1.5 to 2 hours for us. On top of that, we had our back packs with us and it was old quite cold that early in the morning (We started walking around 9AM). The hike is super scenic and there are also horses you can rent to take you the majority of the way.
    Once you get to the top, it's pretty cool with some small local bites along with photo opportunities. We recommend 40 minutes to an hour up top. It will be another 1 hour to walk back to the vehicles.
    Our greatest accomplishment was really for Wedee. He is afraid of heights and still climbed all the way to the top. We had to stop several times as the winds get pretty wild.
    Quick Tips:
    Bring Water, Snack and good walking/ hiking shoes.
    Arrive early so that you can get to the top before everyone else
    Coca Candy / Tea helps with the altitude

    We started our trip back in April 2, 2019 from New York City. We quit our 9-6 jobs, sold all of our belongings, and began traveling full time. We left our jobs because we were unable to be with family and enjoy life. Work was taking up too much time and something had to change. We saved up for 2 years and began traveling as soon as we found a deal that would take us around the world for just $285.00. We started this #travelvlog to share our adventures with friends and family. At the one year mark, we realized that we had only scratched the surface and there was still so much to see. We are so fortunate to be doing this every day. We hope you enjoy our content and will subscribe to our adventures.

    Getting up so early would be probably even harder for us than the hike itself 😄 It looks like it was totally worth it though! Well done on making it all the way to the top 👍

    It's so rare seeing tours from Peru. What an interesting place and it actually looks like a good budget tour. That mountain looks like a layered cake which made me hungry lol. Once again good job on this vlog! 👍

      @@exploreaswego It was great that he was able to face his fears. I am also petrified of heights, but I always try and not let my fear prevent me from doing something.

      Plan it and make it happen! Make sure to dress warm and physically prepare yourself, the hike is quite intensive up to the peak.

    Rainbow mountain:
    Quran, Sura fatir, chapter 35, verse 27.
    وَمِنَ ٱلۡجِبَالِ جُدَدُۢ بِيضٞ وَحُمۡرٞ مُّخۡتَلِفٌ أَلۡوَٰنُهَا وَغَرَابِيبُ سُودٞ
    (Yusuf Ali)
    And in the mountains are tracts white and red, of various shades of colour, and black intense in hue.
    (Sahih International)
    And in the mountains are tracts, white and red of varying shades and [some] extremely black.
    Those are other version of translation.
