Sacred Valley ATV Tour (Half Day)

Sacred Valley ATV Tour is quite an unique experience in Cusco. This is one of those tours that you can do while acclimatize in Cusco before your trip to Machu Picchu. 

Both Maras and Moray which are a part of the Sacred Valley of the Incas played a significant role during the Inca civilization. 

Maras Salt Mines:

Maras Salt mine is one of the popular tourist destinations in Cusco. The salt flats are on one side of a hill. These salt flats have been in use since pre Inca times and have been passed down in the line of succession. 

People still practise the traditional method. They let in the natural spring waters into the geometric shaped puddles. They then wait for the water to evaporate completely. It then leaves behind crystals of salt which are manually scrapped out. 

Salt of Maras is pink in colour and is quite nutritious. It has a distinct taste. Locals say, if you taste the salt of Maras once you won’t be liking the regular salt. 

Moray Farming Terrace:

Moray is another popular destination. It has played a vital role in Incas agricultural inventions. Moray terraces are circular terraces with different levels. 

Each level has a different temperature. The Incas experimented with the growth conditions of crops here. This was more like an agricultural laboratory to Incas. 

Thanks to their invention, Peru now produces over 800 varieties of potatoes and over 5 different types of corn.
