The tour of Maras - Moray is on the path to the Sacred Valley, located between Urubamba and Chinchero. It is one of the most mysterious places in Cusco. This tour takes place every day in groups and private. We’ll visit the community of Maras and its picturesque streets, the circular terraces of Moray and finally the salt mines, where the salt is still processed using traditional methods. On this tour we’ll also appreciate snow-capped mountains, farming fields and villages full of color and tradition.

Two of the most important tourist attractions in the Sacred Valley of the Incas are Maras and Moray. In these places you can see part of our millenary culture and tradition in its different stages such as pre-Inca, Inka, colonial and republican. We invite you to know a little more about these tourist attractions and visit a part of the beautiful sacred valley.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

Moray was possibly an Inca agricultural research center where crop experiments were carried out at different altitudes.
During the month of October hundreds of people from neighboring communities attend the circular terraces of Moray to celebrate the Moray Raymi or Fiesta del Sol. The celebrations include folk dances related to land, agricultural products and labor.
In Maras, its church and houses still have the crests of indigenous nobility in their facades.
The salt mines of Maras are made up of about 3000 small wells with an average area of about 5 m² each.

MARAS & MORAY TOUR

This tour allows you to know Maras and the agricultural terraces of Moray. You will enjoy the beautiful natural scenery along the way. We start the tour by picking you up from your hotel at 09:00 am in a tourist bus, to go to the town of Chinchero, then we’ll head to the picturesque town of Maras, the importance of this place is given by the salt mines that it owns, which we will visit.
Then we’ll go to Moray, which is composed of a group of circular terraces of different sizes, which in Inca times were used as an agricultural experimental center; here it was where they performed their studies of plant adaptation to new ecosystems.
At each site that you visit you will have time to enjoy the scenery and take pictures. After the tour ends you’ll return to the city of Cusco. The entire tour takes about 5 hours, that’s why we will be back to the city of Cusco approximately at 14:30.
