Sacred Moments

The start of your Sacred Valley Full Day Tour is in the morning in which you are picked at the specified time at your hotel, located in Cusco. A scenic coach ride into the Sacred Valley, towards Moray, on a comfortable tourist bus. Such a leg presents stunning Andean views and quaint villages as you look forward to the spectacular Inca terraces coming your way.
In Moray you will get to know the interesting circular terraces that Incas constructed to conduct various experiments with agriculture in various altitudes and microclimates. Your professional official guide describes the higher engineering and scientific design of each level. You’ll have breathtaking mountain scenery with in-depth exploration about the Inca innovation and then you move on.
The next site is the continuation of the trip to Maras, where one can see the old salt mines where they are actually escorted to walk through evaporative ponds that locals still use today.
These salineras have been making salt over time, and bring revenue and culture back to life.
You get to know the whole process of harvesting and the historical meaning of it during Inca times.
The tour then follows the iconic sites with the Chinchero area which offers a more personal contact. You’ll have a Traditional Pachamanca lunch at midday with your hot stones in an underground earth oven in the traditional Andean style. The meat, potatoes, corn and herbs prepare high flavors as the local families tell the stories of preparation.
After lunch you’ll have a pleasant stroll around beautiful Andean sceneries and jovial llamas and alpacas around. It is a quiet moment to be able to relax and take in the beauty of the Sacred Valley. After an interesting morning exploring the city, the afternoon is dedicated to visiting a local community where we can study the traditional art of weaving and natural dyeing and come back to Cusco.
