Itinerary
Your tour starts in the morning as your guide and driver will meet you at your hotel. You head to Chincheros and will be provided with all the safety equipment you need before starting the ride. This is a great tour for most people as the paths are flat and you will take many ‘bike-only’ trails, including the one taken from Chincheros to Moray. Your scenery includes river valleys, glaciers, and stunning views, with an occasional ruin along the way. After your bike adventure, your guide will take you to the incredible circular terraces of Moray, which were used as an Incan laboratory to acclimatize crops.
After lunch, you head off the beaten path to Maras, a typical Andean village. Here you will explore the streets and get a sense that you are walking during the time of the Incas as the culture has remained almost intact. The people continue to wear traditional clothing and the town is lined with historical buildings. You will then have an opportunity to visit the salt terraces of Maras and see and learn about an ancient pre-Incan method of producing salt. Finally, you will ride to Pichingoto, where your van will be ready to take you back to Cusco. In this tour a longer distance will be covered by bike. However, our van will be following us all along the tour and will be at your disposal whenever you need.

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.
