Maras, Moray & Salt Mines - Half Day
Overview
Embark on a fascinating half-day journey through the Sacred Valley to discover two of the most unique and visually striking sites left by the Incas. First, explore Moray, an incredible archaeological site featuring massive circular terraces that scientists believe served as an ancient agricultural laboratory. Then, visit the spectacular Maras Salt Mines, where over 3,000 brilliant white salt pools cascade down a steep mountainside. These pools have been used to harvest salt since pre-Incan times and are still operated by local families today. This tour offers a perfect blend of history, engineering, and breathtaking photography opportunities.
