TRIP ITINERARY
DAY 1:
Maras Moray Tour Itinerary
The journey commences bright and early at 7:00 am, as a seasoned guide picks you up directly from your lodge. A private transport takes you on a scenic 50-minute drive through the route leading to the Sacred Valley of the Incas, culminating at the initial station, Cruzpata town. Here, “Xpedition Trek Tour Company” provides comprehensive instructions for ATV practice, covering maneuvers and proper equipment usage.
Mounted on your ATVs, the exhilarating adventure spans approximately 2 hours en route to Moray. Here, you encounter an ancient experimental Inca agricultural laboratory boasting an ingenious circular platform system. These terraces manifest the genetic evolution, management, and diversification of numerous Andean crops.
Following this, a private transport, chosen for safety considerations on the road, transports you to the Salineras de Maras. This captivating tourist attraction showcases over 3 thousand salt pools on a mountain (3,380 masl / 11,080 ft), employing the same artisanal method once used by the Incas for mineral extraction.
12:00 – 13:00: Return to Cusco After a half-day of thrilling adventures, stunning vistas, and immersion in the ancestral culture of the Sacred Valley of the Incas, the return journey to Cusco ensues, concluding at your accommodation.
Note that in private tours, schedules can be adapted to either a morning or afternoon slot. Feel free to inquire with our customer service team for additional details.
