We will begin our tour early, picking you up from your hotel in Cusco at 7:30 AM and taking you to collect the motorcycles. From there, we will start our journey through the villages of Poroy and Chinchero, heading toward the Cruzpata sector in the province of Urubamba, about an hour from Cusco. Along the way, you’ll enjoy beautiful Andean landscapes and encounter local communities.

Next, we will head to Moray to explore the circular terraces, considered a sacred place in Inca times. These terraces, shaped like a sunken amphitheater, are composed of four complexes of varying sizes. Their landscapes offer a stunning visual experience and represent a center of agricultural research. It is believed that these terraces were used to create microclimates that supported the growth of different plants.

We will continue to the town of Maras, located just two kilometers away. The town’s architecture reflects a blend of indigenous and Baroque styles. Its church, built from carved stone, features a semicircular arch as the main entrance. The gabled roof is covered with tiles, and two beautiful belfries flank the temple. Inside, visitors will find valuable colonial paintings and images, including the renowned Virgen Asunta.

Next, we will visit the Maras salt mines. Along the way, we will enjoy views of the snow-capped Verónica and Chicon mountains, surrounded by a magical landscape and local villagers. These salt mines date back to Inca times, when they supplied salt to Cusco and surrounding areas. The salt ponds, arranged in terraces, are fed by a stream carrying saltwater into the pools. Known for its medicinal properties, the salt is used in various products available for purchase along the way. Don’t forget to capture stunning photos of the famous salt ponds!

After this exciting motorcycle adventure, we will return to the city of Cusco, concluding our tour of Maras and Moray.
