This Maras and Moray tour from Ollantaytambo is a private half day visiting two Inca sites, with a bilingual English and Spanish guide. You are picked up at your hotel in Ollantaytambo and are back in the town after about five hours.
The first stop is Moray, an agricultural laboratory where the Incas built terraces for experimental purposes. The guide explains how farming was managed and which techniques were used in the Inca period, and there is time to photograph the terraces.
Next comes Salineras de Maras, the salt mines on the hillside, exploited since the Inca period. They sit where the Incas made use of a saltwater spring.
- Moray, the experimental farming terraces
