    This is a fantastic Half-Day tour to explore the Sacred Valley. You will see amazing views of the "Urubamba" mountain ranges, the Veronica mountain and the green valleys of farms. On this half day trip, you will be able to learn about agriculture, textiles, and the history of the Incas. We will pick you up from your hotel around 8:35 a.m. and head to the farming laboratory in Moray. This beautiful drive is about 1 hour and 20 minutes. On your drive, you will see the Snow-Capped Mountains of the Andes, lush yellow fields of wheat, and some villages. Finally, you will arrive at the fascinating display of terraces in Moray. Moray boasts three amphitheater-like terraces, made by the Incas. These terraces, which are carved deep into the earth, in the shape of a bowl, were thought to be used to determine the optimal conditions for growing crops. When you are done exploring Moray, you will head about two miles away, to the Salt Mines of "Maras". This village is known as a former salt-producing center and is thought to date back all the way to pre-Incan times. There are more than 3,000 salt pools carved into the mountain side, that are filled daily by a stream of water. This spectacular area is perfect for you if you wish to see something different than the ruins. Once you are done with the visit, you will head back to the city in time to enjoy some lunch on your own.

    The tour was beautiful and the sacred valley and the salt mines were great. We also enjoyed getting to see how the alpaca and llama sweaters and blankets were made. The big issue was that our driver and guide wouldn’t let us have any time to shop or look at anything at the actual viewpoints, but made us wait 1/2 hour or more at places that they “knew about”. We would have preferred to look at the shops at the salt mine instead of the ones the drivers forced us to go to because they knew the owners and likely got kickbacks. I get that’s how it works with places like this but they would leave us for 30 minutes at shops to try and get us to buy something while not giving us enough time at the actual tour places like the sacred valley and salt mine. Overall beautiful but treat us like people and not money bags! Lol

    Der Tourguide Paul hat uns super in die Geschichte der Inkas eintauchen lassen. Nebst der Produktion von Alpaca Wolle haben wir auch die Morays uns Maras Salzmienen bestaunen können. Wir empfehlen diese Tour allen, welche mehr über die faszinierende Geschichte erfahren möchte .

    The tour was very impressive, it was nice to walk around and see the sites and get a first hand information. It was a good trip and Fredy the guide was the best. He shared so many things those I did not find in any guide books or online. Worth it
