What to expect

Depart from your hotel in Cusco heading along the Sacred Valley towards the archaeological site of Moray, approximately an hour and a half away. Moray consists of mysterious concentric circular terraces and as with many Inca ruins, its exact function remains a mystery though the design of ever-wider concentric circular terraces meant each level had a different microclimate. Then, you will continue to Maras, an impressive complex of salt mining. During Inca times, the salt deposits were an important economic center and of great value to the imperial economy.
