We will start our tour of Maras Moray by bike, picking you up from your hotel at the time previously agreed, to undertake the route that goes from Cusco to Cruzpata, a trip that lasts 50 minutes and allows you to know part of the Sacred Valley of the Incas, passing through the village of Chinchero.
Once we get to Cruzpata, we will have a prior moment to get ready and have an informative talk by our guide, then leave with the adventure on bicycles, crossing the different Andean landscapes and some potato growing areas, quinoa, olluco and wheat, without forgetting that we will also surround the Huaypo Lake until we reach the Archaeological Center of Moray, where we will take a break and enjoy our nutritious and delicious box lunch.
After the moment of relaxation, we will head to the village of Maras and descend until we reach the famous Salt Mines. We can see how artisanal salt is extracted with a technique applied since ancient times. Here we can acquire the famous maras salt in its different presentations.
Finally, we will continue with the bike descent to the Pichingoto Bridge, in the Sacred Valley. Our transport will be waiting to take us to Urubamba, where we will taste lunch for about 1 hour before starting the return transfer to Cusco and conclude our tour.
