For our Moray Salt Mine Maras and Machu Picchu 2 days 1 night, we’ll provide you a thorough briefing at your accommodation in Cusco at 5:00 pm, the night before your tour, and you can take this opportunity to ask final questions and make any final preparations.

Itinerary

Day 1: Cusco – Moray – Salt Mine Maras  – Aguas Calientes

Your tour guide will pick you up from your hotel/hostal at 8:00am and you will travel by mini van to the amazing village of Chincheros. In Chincheros you can visit the artisanal market where they will show you the way in which the Inca’s people used to get the natural dyes from all the native plants in the Cusco region. Also you will visit the Chincheros Inca ruins. Then we will continue our scenic journey to Moray, the amazing Inca agricultural terraces. After this we will continue to Salinas de Maras, impressive salt mines in a beautiful setting. Then we will stop in Urubamba (Not incluide). After lunch you will continue through to the Ollantaytambo train station. Here we will board an afternoon train to Aguas Calientes, the base town of MachuPicchu. You will then have time to explore this town and go to the hot springs if you like. You will then stay one night in a hostel. This can be upgraded to a hotel if you wish. 

  • Meals: None
  • Accommodation in Hotel Wiracocha or Similar.

Day 2: Aguas Calientes – Machupicchu – Ollantaytambo – Cusco

After breakfast we will board the bus which will take us to the biggest energetic center of the Incas, “Machu Picchu”. As part of our itinerary the same professional tour guide from the Moray and  salt mine, will teach you about all the history of this mysterious and mystical place. We will visit the Sun Temple, Royal palace, Main Temple, Three Windows Temple and Sun Dial. It will be an unforgettable experience. After the guided tour, you will have free time to explore on your own.

If you have booked Wayna picchu, you will need to coordinate with your guide for Machu Picchu visiting depending on your scheduled time to the mountain, for people not hiking any of the mountains there are some other optional activities on your own (not included in the price):

  • Visit the Sun Gate: You will have an opportunity to walk (approx. 2 hours up and down) up to the Sun Gate (Inti Punku) to see Machu Picchu from a different angle.
  • Hike to the Inca Bridge: The Inca Bridge offers a dose of adventure for your next Machu Picchu visit. However in this case, the adventure is a little less strenuous, but a lot more death defying, not for people with vertigo.
