Things to do in Huaraz, Ancash Region: The Best Multi-day Tours

June 10, 2021 Jacquiline Darosa

Huaraz dates back to before the Incan Empire and is a great destination for travelers looking to combine cultural education with relaxation. Explore archaeological sites and the ancient stone monoliths at the Museo Regional de Ancash. Squeeze into narrow Duck Canyon or, for a challenge with a massively beautiful payoff, hike a mountain trail in Huascarán National Park.

Edgar Zombrano. is a thief. DO NOT BOOK WITH FIRST CLASS HUARAZ!!!!!. After I paid I never heard back from Edgar Zombrano or anyone at First class Huaraz. I called First Huaraz and Edgar Zombrano multiple times but there was no answer. I sent emails and text messages and still no reply. I decided to call my credit card company so I can get a refund. But first class Huaraz told them that it was a legit purchase because I voluntarily gave them my credit card information. and that they booked a hotel and bus tickets for me. when I called the hotel,and the bus company had nothing under my name. Also, I agreed with Edgar Zombrano on a different hotel than the awful hotel he claims he booked for me. DO NOT GIVE THIS PEOPLE any of your personal information. if you want to go to Huaraz, book everything on your own and find a tour guide once you get there. This is what I will do. so sad there are these horrible people in this world.

It is possible to trek into the site, but for most people the train is the option. The trip is about an hour and one half and is wonderful. There is so much to see on the trip that you would like the train tp go slower! For most of the ride, the river will be in clear view, but the mountain views are really spectacular.

I loved the tour, but I can’t recommend booking it via Andean Summit. 1) It is more expensive than booking e.g. in a hostel in Huaraz. 2) They postponed my start of the tour. For “compensation” they offered me a “discount” on another tour which turned out to be the normal price. Besides, I could negotiate a free night in their hostel (Sleep & Summit). It was the worst hostel I ever slept in (no windows, no hot water, far from the city center). 3) They told me I would not need cash. However, I had to pay 60 soles for the entrance of the park.
