Itinerary
We begin our activities by picking up travelers at the designated hotels.
After 1 hour of traveling in our vehicle, we arrive at the community of Chequerec, where our guide is waiting for us with the ATVs ready for our ride.
Once they get off the mobility, our guides will start with the safety talk, introduction to the operation of the ATVs, then we will start with the practice before heading out on the route.
Moray is a stunning archaeological site located in the Peruvian Andes, famous for its stepped circular terraces that resemble an amphitheater. These terraces, built by the Incas, form a hypnotizing landscape that seems to have been sculpted by the human hand with geometric precision. It is believed that Moray was used as an experimental agricultural laboratory, where the Incas tested and developed new varieties of crops in different microclimates. Immerse yourself in the history and mystique of this place as you explore the depths of its terraces and marvel at the ancient engineering. A visit to Moray is a window to the past and a unique experience that will leave you fascinated by the greatness of the Inca civilization. Remember that we have 80% of the time on ATV and 20% in Moray.
Here we will take our mobility and descend to the Maras salt mines, immerse yourself in a unique landscape of white terraces that unfold like steps in the mountain, creating an impressive view that contrasts with the lush green of the surroundings. Discover the ancient history of this site, used since Inca times for the production of salt. Be captivated by the artisanal process as you watch the salt water transform into sparkling crystals under the Andean sun. A unique experience that will connect you with the nature and culture of this fascinating region. Book now and live an unforgettable adventure in the Salineras de Maras!
Once the delight of the salted chocolates was over, we headed towards Cusco, where our driver will leave you in Plaza Regocijos.

About Cusco
Cusco, the old Inca capital high in the Peruvian Andes, blends massive stone walls with colonial churches and is the gateway to Machu Picchu.
The Plaza de Armas is the heart of the city, framed by the cathedral and the Jesuit church of La Compañía. Inca stonework survives throughout the centre, most famously at the Qorikancha, the sun temple on which the Spanish built a monastery, and in the twelve-angled stone on Hatun Rumiyoc street. San Blas, the artisans' quarter, climbs steeply with workshops and cafés.
Top-ranked sights in Cusco: Aguas Calientes, Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo Ruins.
