Description
Enjoy a quick and fun quad bike tour of the Red Valley and the Mountain of Colors in a single day, with an impressive view of mountains and intense reddish soils, and less crowded.
Your adventure kicks off very early with a pick-up at your hotel in Cusco at 4:00 a.m., while the sunrise is turning the Andes golden. We'll travel by tourist transport for an hour and a half until we reach Cusipata. Upon arrival, we'll enjoy a buffet breakfast, ideal for recharging your batteries before our activity. We'll then continue the trip by transport, passing through small Andean villages and herds of alpacas until we reach the base point.
Then you'll get a brief safety briefing and learn how to ride your quad bike, no matter if it's your first time. You'll feel the thrill as you start driving on open roads surrounded by mountains, fresh air, and spectacular panoramic views. For about 40 minutes, you'll ride along high Andean routes, crossing wide terrains and unique natural landscapes with reddish soils until you reach the viewpoint of the red valley.
After the ride, you'll continue with a 30-minute walk to the 7-colored mountain. If you choose the quad bike option without the red valley, you'll have a 5- to 8-minute walk to the same 7-colored mountain. There, you'll see its natural bands of intense colors formed by minerals, an unforgettable visual spectacle at over 5,000 meters high. You'll have free time to take photos and enjoy the surroundings. Then you'll head back along the same path to our vehicle, which will be waiting to take you back to our lunch spot. Finally, you'll enjoy a buffet lunch with fresh local produce. You'll then head back to Cusco with memories and photos that will stay with you forever, arriving around 5:00 pm and being dropped off very close to the Plaza de Armas.
