MORAY. • It is located 7 km. from Maras, two hours from the city of Cusco along the Chinchero route is one of the most spectacular visits where there are circular platforms of different sizes. They are terraces of agricultural experimentation and places of concentration of feminine energy, for which it is considered as a magnetic center of the Pachamama.

Admission not included120 min

SALAS DE MARAS. • Located northwest of the town of Maras Known by some as "salt mines" they are made up of about 3,000 small wells. Salt has been obtained since pre-Hispanic times through a system for drying the salty water in the sun that occurred from an underground stream. Once the water has evaporated, the salt is ready for sale. • We will return to Cusco (02:00 PM)

Pick a different tour company!

Stay away from this company. They were extremely late for a tour and wanted to charge a fee when we entered the car that didn’t match the description of the tour. Find another company!

Poor organization but good trip.

A great car and guide. However, the lack of contact and correct information was quite annoying. I bought a tour in person at the Cusco office and it was very important that I was back by 2 pm and that they informed me what time the transport would arrive at my address. They ensured that they informed me of the collection time by 8:00 pm. Result. I went to sleep without knowing what time I should be ready. They sent me a message at 2:00 in the morning. And when the tour started, the information was that the expected arrival time was 2:30-2:45 pm. Everything they told me didn't happen.

FANTASTIC TOUR

They arrived at our hotel just in time and were helpful and informative throughout the day, which gave us enough time to take any photos or ask the questions we wanted. Maras, and especially Moray, are beautiful and well worth the trip. And we got back to Cusco in time for lunch!

I didn't really like the tour.

We really liked the places, but not the tour, the guide brought us very quickly, especially in the salt flats, we could not take the photos we wanted, and she told us that in the end there was going to be time for that, when it was not true, since in the end there is no way to return, because you must follow a circuit, and she was practically in the van to go back to Cusco. We felt very hasty this tour, I recommend you to go better on your own , also we did not really know that to enter Moray you must buy the tourist ticket, we had not understood that point because we are not from Peru, which is very expensive if you do not plan to visit more places of the sacred valley, because you are charged the ticket in general for every sacred valley, whether you go or not to the other places. I did many tours with this Enterprise, I liked everyone except this tour.
