“Très belle excursion pour voir les condors et de superbes paysages!!”
Trek into Colca Canyon, sleep in Sangalle, watch Andean condors, then ride from Chivay to Puno on this demanding two-day adventure.
“Great experience, the colca canyon offers a fantastic scenery. We saw some condors along the way, too. The hike is quite challenging, especially on the second day - it's going 1200 altitude meters up. Planning was good, everything was taken care of, for example the transport of our luggage and the transfer to Puno (we had to change busses). The included food was okay, but not great. Same for the accomodation: Oasis ecolodge was a little shabby. But for one night it was ok.”

“Strange one to review really: The good - great way to see the colca canyon, and we had more time at each stop than other reviewers have mentioned. Lots of toilet breaks if required, fairly cost effective way of getting to Puno from Arequipa. We skipped the thermal baths as they didnt look great and rented some kayaks for 30 soles per person and had fun. In Puno, we switched to smaller transport which took us right to our hotel. The bad: we were told we could bring suitcases but that wasnt the case, luckily we stuffed them under a seat but if other people had brought some too then....…”

Review of the 2-day Colca Canyon tour from Arequipa to Puno, with condors, hot springs, Chivay, high-altitude views, and practical travel tips.
“Amazing experience, the tour was very well organised with a professional, friendly guide (Flor) who gave insightful information about the Cañon and the animals there in both Spanish and English. The views of the Cañon from the viewpoints will take your breath away and we saw many Vicuña, Alpaca and Llamas as well as 3 Condors who flew right over our heads! The hot springs on the first day were a great experience, very relaxing and in a beautiful setting. Casita de Anita Hotel was very comfortable and in a great location in the main square of Chivay. They provide a good breakfast of ham, cheese, eggs and bread before…”

Review of a two-day Colca Canyon tour from Arequipa to Puno, with condors, volcano views, Chivay, hot springs, and practical tips.
“The trip was really enjoyable & well organised throughout. The drive through the amazing scenery, provided opportunity to stop and see alpacas & llamas close up as well as observe the volcanoes of the area. We chose not to visit the hot springs instead enjoying a stroll around the town which is lovely. The trip to the Canyon to see the Condor was spectacular. A great trip highly recommended and our guide German provided excellent commentary throughout. Our transfer onto Puno from was a great way to make the most of our time.”
