Cuzco to Maras Salt Mines & Morey Terraces Day Tour
Overview
Explore the breathtaking wonders of the Sacred Valley on this half-day adventure from Cuzco. Your journey begins with a scenic drive to the spectacular Maras Salt Mines (often searched as the Masras or Mars salt pans).
Here, you will witness over 3,000 terraced pools where local families still hand-harvest the famous pink salt.
Next, we visit the surreal, circular agricultural ruins of Moray (sometimes spelled Morey or Muray). These ancient Inca terraces look like a giant amphitheater carved into the earth. Your expert, English-speaking guide will explain how the Incas used this site as a laboratory for crops. Whether you call them the Salineras de Maras, the Mares salt pools, or the Cuzco salt pans, this is a must-see Peruvian highlight. Book your seat today!
