Moray está formado por tres terrazas tipo anfiteatro hechas por los incas. Se cree que estas terrazas, que están talladas profundamente en la tierra en forma de cuenco, se utilizaron como laboratorio agrícola para determinar las condiciones óptimas para el cultivo.
En este recorrido, viajará al histórico Valle de Urubamba en Perú. Ubicado entre Cusco y Machu Picchu, el Valle de Urubamba es conocido por su exuberante paisaje, pintorescos pueblos coloniales y magníficas fortalezas incas.
Se dirigirá a las minas de sal de Maras, que están a solo 2 millas de distancia. Se remonta a la época colonial, Maras fue considerado un centro productor de sal. Tallado en la ladera de la montaña hay más de 3000 piscinas de sal, que se llenan diariamente con un pequeño chorro de agua. Una vez que el agua se evapora, deja un reluciente mosaico de sal. Las minas de sal son un gran lugar para tomar fotos y capturar la increíble belleza de los Andes y las espectaculares Salineras.

Great way to see Moray and Maras salt mines. Our tour guide Juan Carlos was passionate and provides lots of good information about the places we visited.
Great tour - knowledgable guide and good opportunities to buy stuff on the way round. Highly Recommended.
The Moray Terraces and Maras Salt Pools half-day tour from Cusco exactly matched the description. Hotel pickup worked without any problems. First we went to the Sacred Valley in Moray, where our tour guide gave very good explanations. We were even able to walk a full lap around the terraces, while other groups were only on the upper path. So we had an excellent overview of the plant. Afterwards we drove to lunch. The buffet was excellent, with a wide range of food. Afterwards we stopped at the salt pools of Maras, where you could enjoy the view from a terrace. There was plenty of time for photos and some more explanations. The return journey to the hotel went smoothly. Conclusion: Very good value for money. If you already have a combo ticket, you don't have to pay admission to Moray, and the 20 pesos for the salt mine are cheap. Overall a well organized, informative and worthwhile tour.
Dear traveller, vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, eine so ausführliche und hilfreiche Bewertung zu schreiben. Es freut uns sehr zu hören, dass die gesamte Tour – vom reibungslosen Abholen am Hotel über die informativen Erklärungen in Moray, das köstliche Mittagsbuffet bis hin zum Besuch der Maras-Salzbecken – genau Ihren Erwartungen entsprochen hat. Besonders schön ist es zu wissen, dass Sie die komplette Runde in Moray genießen konnten und genügend Zeit für Fotos sowie Erklärungen hatten. Auch Ihr Hinweis zum Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist für zukünftige Reisende sehr wertvoll. Wir danken Ihnen herzlich für Ihr Vertrauen und freuen uns, Sie eines Tages wieder auf einer unserer Touren begrüßen zu dürfen! Best regards, Willka Travel Team
The Morsy Terraces and Maras Salt Pools were amazing to see. The genius of the Inca Civilization was on full display. We also saw an interesting demonstration of women cleaning and weaving Alpaca fibers. And a similar event in a shop selling Peruvian chocolate. The driver, Carmel, did a great job transporting us from place to place safely and quickly. Our guide, JZ, was very enthusiastic and each place. He provided lots of helpful insights. It was a lot of your for the price.
Paul was a knowledgable and friendly tour guide, conducting the tour in English and Spanish. We met him at the pick up spot, meaning we didn’t have to wait for everyone to be picked up from their hotels as that had already happened by the time the mini bus had arrived. Journey was broken up nicely with various stops so never felt like you were sitting for too long unlike other tours from Cusco. Although you visited a couple of shops on route I felt no pressure to buy anything (although I did end up with a lovely jumper and some salted chocolate). Enjoyed the tour of Moray and Maras and felt we saw a lot without having to wake up at 4am. Thank you!
If viewing first hand the amazing engineering and building prowess of the ancient Inka is of interest to you then a tour of the iconic circular Moray terraces is a must. Our tour guide Jessica, was very knowledgeable about how the design of the terraces improved the agricultural purpose behind them. The stop at the Maras salt mines was also worthwhile. It was interesting to see how the local people have harnessed a salt spring to provide a long term source of income for local families.
Emil was a great tour guide, giving everyone lots of information and even accommodating different languages. He gave us plenty of time to take pictures too.
Jimmy was an excellent guide! Quite knowledgeable on the sites and even gave us a bonus stop in Chinchero! Would 100% recommend.
I loved this half day trip, can’t recommend enough! JC was an amazing tour guide and provided a lot of information on the tour. I particularly loved the visit to a local women’s collective that show you how they make textiles by hand (from collecting the wool, cleaning it, spinning it into thread, dying it with different local plants, and weaving it into blankets, sweaters, etc. that takes days/weeks!). The prices reflect the authenticity of the work (in the big cities in Peru, all the “alpaca” items are made of synthetic materials and chemically dyed!) so this is where I bought all my souvenirs and beautiful blankets that will last a lifetime! Just keep in mind it did not include lunch and we got back to Cusco at 2:30 so brings snacks or buy some along the way. Enjoy!
A country experience to continue seeing agricultural terraces and the famous salt flats of the area, which the most impressive thing is that these salt flats are given thanks to a saline spring
