Reisroute
In het Textile Interpretation Center dompel je jezelf onder in de fascinerende wereld van traditioneel vakmanschap, leer je over de oude technieken van spinnen, weven en verven van natuurlijke vezels, zoals de luxe alpacawol. Vakbekwame lokale ambachtslieden demonstreren het ingewikkelde proces van textielproductie, met behulp van natuurlijke plantaardige kleurstoffen die generaties lang zijn doorgegeven. U krijgt de kans om hun expertise van dichtbij te waarderen en, indien gewenst, unieke textielproducten aan te schaffen die het rijke culturele erfgoed van de regio laten zien.
Een indrukwekkende Inca-landbouwlocatie waar cirkelvormige terrassen werden gebruikt om te experimenteren met microklimaten en de gewasproductie te verbeteren. De gids zal uitleggen hoe de Inca’s op deze terrassen verschillende soorten kweekten, waarbij hun landbouwproductie werd geoptimaliseerd door gecontroleerde omstandigheden te creëren die de groei van gewassen bevorderden.
Tijdens uw bezoek aan de Maras zoutmijnen verkent u een prachtig netwerk van meer dan 4.000 zoutmeren die al sinds de pre-Incatijd in gebruik zijn. Je leert over het ambachtelijke zoutwinningsproces en hoe je de drie verschillende kwaliteiten zout kunt identificeren die in het gebied worden geproduceerd. Daarnaast ontdek je de helende eigenschappen van het roze zout en geniet je van een panoramisch uitzicht op de zoutterrassen, een uniek en fotogeniek landschap dat je niet wilt missen.

What an amazing day in Sacred Valley! We had a private tour for 4 people and it was one of the best days in Peru. We went to Chinchero and learned about textiles and the dyes that they use. We saw guinea pigs and alpacas. We then went to the salt mines, Moray and ended our day sampling local chocolates. Everything went very smoothly including private pick up and drop off at our hotel. Our tour guide Mihai was so helpful and knowledgeable and made the experience educational, memorable and fun! Our teenage boys said this was their favourite day in Peru. Would highly recommend for all - adults, families with children, teenagers. If you are in Sacred Valley I would strongly recommend this tour!
What a beautiful experience seeing Chincero, Maras salt mines and Moray. Mihai is a very knowledgeable, well spoken and patient guide. He did not rush us. Answered my many questions and helped us by taking amazing pictures. He arrived on time in a beautiful clean car. We will definitely be requesting Mihai’s guidance when we are in Peru again. Highly recommend using Mihai as your guide.
Our experience with Highlanding Travel was wonderful. Everything was planned very well from pickup to drop off. Mihai (our guide) is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He took us through the Sacred valley region that included - Chincero, Maras salt mines and Moray. He was patient, funny, explained things in detail and helped us understand the Andean culture. I would highly recommend Highlanding Travel and will most definitely use them for our next Peru visit. Must do in Sacred valley!
This tour exceeded my expectations. Mihai was our tour guide and he was very professional, attentive and knowledgeable. We had extensive conversations and he was the best at taking our photos along our journey! Since our tour was private, I enjoyed how we got to add some flexibility on how long we got to stay at each site. The driver was always ready to meet us when we were done and the car was very accommodating. We felt extremely safe throughout the journey with this company. Overall, I would recommend this tour and others given by this company. This was one of our family’s most memorable experiences while in Peru!
Mihai was such an incredible guide that we went ahead and booked him for another tour on our trip. They were incredibly accommodating in crafting a tour that we and our teenage sons would like. We cannot recommend him and his tour company enough.
Wonderful guide Mihai, and driver Juan! They took great care of us as we visited Chinchero, Moray, and the Salt Mine of Maras. Mihai was well-informed, very helpful with providing answers to just about any question, and was both very kind and friendly. Juan navigated the windy narrow dirt roads expertly and kept us comfortable in a clean well-kept car with AC.
Thank you so much for this review! We’re really glad Mihai could answer all your questions and make Chinchero, Moray, and the Salt Mines of Maras such a friendly, interesting day for you. And we appreciate you noticing Juan’s careful driving on those winding roads and keeping the car cool and clean. Your words mean a lot to our whole team. Hope we see you again in Cusco!
This tour was honestly one of the best tours I’ve been on. The guide Mihai was very educated about all the history and science behind the attractions, and he explained it patiently and with deep passion. The driver Juan was also professional and a safe driver. Overall, I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in learning about the salt mine of Maras, moray, and Chinchero.
Thank you so much for your review! We’re truly happy to hear Mihai shared his passion for the history and science at Maras, Moray, and Chinchero, and that Juan made you feel safe on the road. Reviews like yours motivate us to keep giving our best every day. We hope you come back soon so we can keep exploring Peru together!
Very knowledgeable and accommodating to myself and my dad who had injuries and needed a slower pace
Thank you for your kind words. We’re so glad our guide could adjust the pace and make the tour comfortable and enjoyable for both you and your dad. Accessibility and care are always a priority for us. We’d love to welcome you back on another Salt mines and Moray adventure!
Great tour with Mihai to sites in the Sacred Valley from our hotel in Urubamba. MIhai was very informative and engaging with us the entire trip.
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re really glad Mihai made your Sacred Valley tour from Urubamba memorable. The whole team appreciates you choosing us. We’d love to welcome you back to Peru!
This was our first tour in Peru! I loved that the tour started in Scared Valley, lower altitude from Cusco. Our guide Mihai, spoke very good English and was super knowledgeable about everything Peru and Inca. From the textile tour to salt mine, we enjoyed every stop on the tour!
What an honor to be your first tour in Peru! 💛 Starting in the Sacred Valley really does help with the altitude, right? Mihai is going to be so happy to hear you loved every stop — from the textiles to the salt mines. Thanks for trusting us with day one. Hope the rest of your trip was amazing!
