Itinerary
The ATV Maras & Moray tour begins at 8:00 a.m. with pickup from your accommodation. We will then head west of Cusco until reaching our first stop, Maras, to visit the famous salt mines known as the “Salineras” — 3,000 pools fed by a hypersaline underground spring that originated 110 million years ago as the Andes Mountains were forming.
Next, we will visit the Archaeological Complex of Moray, also known as the Inca agricultural laboratory, composed of circular terraces with irrigation canals.
After finishing our last visit, we return to the city of Cusco around 14:00 (approximately), and you’ll have the afternoon free to enjoy the wonderful city of Cusco.
