Cordillera Huayhuash Classic Trek
We could not have chosen a better company than Huaraz Trek and Climbs for our honeymoon – the trip far exceeded our expectations and that was largely in part due to the professionalism, superb knowledge of the trek and local area and extreme helpfulness of Rodolfo and his team. This was a 5* trek throughout and I’d like to add that really the great experience started from the moment we came across the company online – every time we contacted Rodolfo with some questions he came back to us with detailed emails which answered our questions down to the last detail and in a very timely manner – really quickly unless he was away on another trek. Rodolfo felt responsible for us from the moment we arrived until the moment we left Huaraz, even though technically this was not part of the trek.

Special mention must go to Bernardo, our cook – absolutely amazing! He cooked up super tasty dishes 3 times a day under a small portable stove and even when we met him for lunch during the longer days hikes. The food far exceeded our expecations – I was expecting pasta and rice with different sauces, however we got gourmet food – trout ceviche (caught in the local river), juicy steak, Peruvian classics like pacha manca and yummy desserts like crème caramel to name but a few.

Our tent was always up and ready by the time we arrived in camp, we had plenty of hot water to wash with, for our tea and hot water bottles at night and really nothing could have been a trouble for Rodolfo and his crew.

We’d be very happy to expand on our experience with any other travellers interested in visiting this beautiful part of the world. And honestly, you need look no further – keep it local and go with Huaraz Treks and Climbs.

Santa Cruz Classic Trek and Mateo Mountain Climb
Highly experienced. Very professional. They organised everything for us and it was such a pleasure to be on a trip with them. We definitely would use them again.

We had a great time. Whether you are doing a day hike or a multi day adventure I would not hesitate to use Huaraz Treks again and so should you.

Cordillera Huayhuash Mini Trek
Rodolofo and Huaraz Peru Treks were fabulous to work with. Rodolofo understands and embodies ‘excellent’ service. His communications with trip planning were timely and detailed, and his follow through during the trek completely as advertised. He provides a very personalized trekking service and assisted in making our arrival, stay and departure in Huaraz worry free and comfortable. His cook was outstanding. We ate fresh meals with no menu repeats of impeccably prepared ‘4 Star’ Andean cuisine. The Arriero/Donkey Driver was one of the hardest workers I’ve ever seen. He had camp set up on our arrival at camp daily, and broke camp and transported our supplies to the next camp with amazing efficiency. The assistant guide was very conscientious and always helpful. Rodolofo speaks excellent English, has international travel experience. His mountain guiding experience is impeccable, with many years of experience as an internationally certified mountain guide.
We developed a very close bond with everyone on our trek, and in a matter of days began feeling practically like family with the trekking crew. Rodolfo cares deeply about the Andes and was a very environmentally conscientious host. We enjoyed conversations that shared values on humanity, culture and politics and returned home having shared a very rich cultural experience of Peruvian life. I can’t express enough praise for Rodolfo and his team. I am recommending him to friends expressing interest in sharing our Peruvian Andes adventure, and if my wife and I plan ever a return to the Cordillera’s, we would plan to hire Rodolfo again.

Cordillera Huayhuash Classic Trek
This has been by far the best guided trip we have done in South America. The day length was sometimes short but the side trips made up for this & were a good challenge. We will be back!

Cordillera Huayhuash Classic Trek
Rodolfo and his crew were totally professional, knowledgeable and energetic, always willing to help. They could not have made the trip any better.
Elisabeth Evans, USA

Santa Cruz Classic Trek
Hi Rodolfo, just a quick note to say we had a great trek. Scenery was amazing and the walk met all our expectations. Leo was knowledgeable and got the pace right for Bev and myself to make the trek enjoyable. I thought his positioning of the tent to get an early morning view was great attention to detail. Mario was a good cook. His attention to presentation of the food was excellent. Enrique ensured that all the camp was organised by the time we arrived. I also liked that he helped Mario with some kitchen tasks. Most importantly they seemed to work very as a team to make our trip enjoyable.

Staff was terrific and made sure we were safe and comfortable. Equipment was first rate.
The whole thing could not have been better!

Cordillera Huayhuash Classic Trek
I had a great time on the trek! Everything was very professional and the food was amazing. Rodolfo was very knowledgeable about the mountains and the flora/fauna of the area. I like that there were some options on rest days and everyone could go their own pace. Definitely will recommend to friends and family.

We completed the 13 day Cordillera Huayhuash trek and had the most amazing time! Fantastic views, great food and really experienced guide. Rodolfo is the best guide we have used in South America! Highly reccommend Huaraz Treks and Climbs to anyone visiting the Cordillera Blanca or Huayhuash.

Vallunaraju Climb & Laguna Ahuac Lake Hike
Rodolfo was very accommodating and helpful when our plans were disrupted. His communication was great and he was extremely helpful with every detail of our trip.
Shawn Heinlen, USA

Cordillera Huayhuash Classic Trek
Every part of the trek was amazing! One could not have asked for a better guide/chef/donkey driver(s). The whole crew went above and beyond to make sure that they provided a top notch trekking experience. Even though I became sick and had to head down for a few days, Rodolfo was incredible at ensuring that we all still thoroughly enjoyed our trip. Getting back up on the mountains to finish the trek was an incredible experience and by far the highlight of all of my South American travels. I HIGHLY recommend going through Rodolfo versus one of the other organizations. His personal attention to detail and professionalism, coupled with his love of this mountain range make for the ultimate experience. Cheers!

Santa Cruz Classic Trek
Rodolfo and Huaraz Treks met and exceeded our expectations in all respects. His lifelong knowledge of the Cordillera Blanca enriched our trip beyond the trek itself, including identification of birds, animals, mountains, and the local villages. He also was helpful in suggesting other activities for our time in the Huaraz area. Bright, personable, excellent English, quick judge of our abilities and interests.
Evan Metcalf, USA

An Austrian Family on the Santa Cruz Classic Trek
It has been a great experience in a breathtaking area of the Cordillera Blanca. Rodolfo is an excellent mountain guide. He and his team (cooks and donkey drivers) have provided a first class service to us.

We’ve appreciated the days with Rodolfo and his team. Rodolfo’s knowledge, experience and his care of safety have made our trip very interesting, convenient and memorable.

He also told us a lot about the Peruvian way of life, we’ve really enjoyed talking to him during hiking or having dinner in the eating tent. Whenever we’ll return to Peru for hiking or climbing we’ll choose him again as our guide.

Cordillera Blanca Day Hikes
Just returned from my Huaraz day treks, a truly brilliant experience. Right from the start Rodolfo was brilliant, replying promptly to my queries via email, no question was too much bother. He was very knowledgeable about the areas we visited and always made an effort to make sure I was fine, specially given as I was travelling alone. The day treks were wonderful, the scenaries were beautiful and diverse. He, along with the lovely locations really made the trip. Many thanks.

Mountaineering Course on Yanapaccha Mountain
This trip was the second half of our honeymoon, and it was a phenomenal experience. Since we were coming from the USA, Rodolfo’s help in booking our bus tickets to and from Huaraz as well as hotel accommodation were extremely helpful and made organizing this portion of our trip very easy and simple. We have been on guided mountaineering trips in the USA, and the guide on this trip was even more knowledgeable and safe. He tailored the instruction to our abilities and what we wanted to learn. As a teacher, he was very patient and allowed us to figure some things out on our own as he watched and waited to comment. He was efficient in leading during the summit day, and adapted to the snow conditions and weather so as to minimize risk as much as possible. He was also very neat and tidy with his rope work, and anchor building which made me feel more trusting of relying on the anchors he built. Overall, I could not imagine a better guide for the area, and if I get a chance to climb in the Cordillera Blanca again, I would not think twice of choosing Rodolfo as my guide.
Sara and Joshua Bagley, USA

It was a very well planned trip, with excellent guiding services, cooking and donkey handling. Rodolfo went out his way to explain or interpret what we were seeing. Very personable as well.
Peter Greene, USA

Thanks for a wonderful trip. I would certainly recommend you to others.
Jim Rubingh, USA

Cordillera Huayhuash Mini Trek
Three of us undertook the Huayhuash Mountains mini trek in August 2013, what an experience and what a place – truly awesome! The trip came together with thanks to Rodolfo; he assisted with pre-trip arrangements and upon us arriving in Huaraz that assistance continued. His extensive local knowledge helped us with acclimatization walks and public transport. Rodolfo’s guidance and pace during the trek was excellent, as was his back up team (donkey driver & cook) who provided a great service!

Rodolfo many thanks for looking after us so well and professionally during our stay in Peru. We have really enjoyed our trekking, managed to see hidden parts of the beautiful Cordillera Blanca and even tasted all weathers! It’s been a great challenge for us all, amazing experience and we could not have done without your help.
To the Crew, thank you for looking after us so well on our trek and making our trip to Peru so memorable.

Olleros to Carhuascancha Trek
I just wanted to drop you folks a note and let you know that I had a wonderful time on the Olleros to Carhuascancha trek. Rodolfo did an awesome job from start to finish. The level of professionalism and care that was given each and every one of us was just beyond words.
John & Donna, Australia

Ishinca & Tocllaraju Mountain Climb
I had an amazing trip! A once in a lifetime experience, and memories I will cherish forever … the entire experience from booking to climbing was exceptional, I couldn’t expect higher standards.
Adam, USA

Mountaineering Course on Vallunaraju Mountain and Ishinca Climb
It was a really wonderful trip, we both enjoyed it tremendously.
For me, the highlights were getting to the top of 2 mountains. I found both ascents quite demanding, but it was exhilarating to reach the top and be rewarded with tremendous views.
The food while camping was really great, the cook Manuel performed miracles! Rodolfo was a really excellent guide, he was very patient with me, he was very good company, and he organized everything extremely well.
I feel that we benefitted the local community in that we added to the demand for professional services in the region (and everyone, from Rodolfo to the cook, porters and donkey drivers, was very professional), and in a small way the payment and tips for these services will help all of these individuals and their families.
