Morning:
Your guide will pick you up from your hotel at 8:00 AM to begin the day. Traveling in a comfortable vehicle, you'll drive through the Sacred Valley, marveling at snow-capped mountain peaks and golden fields along the way.
Your first stop is Moray, an ancient archaeological site featuring three amphitheater-like terraces. These terraces, carved deep into the earth, are believed to have been used by the Incas to study and optimize crop growth under various microclimates. Explore these unique formations and learn about their historical significance.
Mid-Morning:
A short drive from Moray brings you to the Maras Salt Mines, perched on a mountainside. With over 3,000 salt ponds, this site is not only visually stunning but also steeped in centuries of history. You'll witness locals harvesting salt using traditional methods and will have the chance to purchase unique salt-based products.
Afternoon:
Next, you'll visit Chinchero, a quaint Andean village often referred to as the “Birthplace of the Rainbow.” Here, you'll explore well-preserved ruins, a colonial church adorned with beautiful paintings, and vibrant markets. A highlight of your visit will be a hands-on weaving demonstration led by skilled artisans who will share the secrets of Andean textile-making traditions passed down for generations.
Evening:
After soaking in the history, culture, and scenery, you'll make your way back to Cusco, arriving at approximately 6:00 PM.
