Itinerary
Day 1: Cusco - Moray - Maras - Cusco
We begin the tour with pick-up from your hotel at the agreed time, then head to the town of Cruzpata by private transport for approximately 50 minutes. There, we will have a 15-minute practice session for each passenger to get familiar with the ATVs. Once the guide confirms that all passengers are ready and comfortable, we will start the ATV tour to the Moray experimental terraces. This route, entirely on ATVs, lasts approximately 2 hours, departing from Cruzpata and then returning to Cruzpata.
Next, we will head towards Maras (Salt Mines) by tourist transport (this is for safety reasons, to avoid accidents in the salt flats and the descent, which presents a cliff). During this journey, you will be able to admire the majestic snow-capped peaks of Verónica and Chicón, accompanied by a magical landscape in contact with nature and some local inhabitants.
At the end of the tour, we will return to the city of Cusco. Our tour ends on Plateros street.
