      TravelerWritten August 2024

      What is the Rainbow Mountain extension in Peru? I want to climb it! I have climbed many mountains and that is on my bucket list so if I can't climb it with your extension then I will do it on my own. Do you have an extension of a boat ride to Lake Titicaca? I want to do that too. I have already hiked the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu.

    • Discover CorpsOperatorWritten August 2024

      The Rainbow Mountain Extension is an extra 3 days, 2 nights. It includes either horseback riding up the mountain or hiking. We do not have an extension to Lake Titicaca. Our trips are not tax deductible because there is a strong vacation element.
