Sacred Valley Tour from Ollantaytambo: Small Group to Cusco
From €100 per person
See availability →This Sacred Valley tour from Ollantaytambo links the Inca site, Moray, the Maras Salt Mines and Chinchero in a small group, then ends at your hotel in Cusco.
The day starts where the Inca stonework is still standing: Ollantaytambo, with its terraces, temples and water channels. This Sacred Valley tour from Ollantaytambo is built for people who want several highlights in one day, with a bilingual guide and a group of 2 to 6 people instead of a crowded coach.
- Ollantaytambo, where the guide explains how the Incas managed water and stone
- Moray, the circular terraces used as an agricultural laboratory, each level with its own microclimate
- Maras Salt Mines, thousands of salt pools still worked with ancestral techniques
- Chinchero, a village known for its textiles, with weaving demonstrations and a handicraft market
Before Chinchero you stop at a viewpoint over the Urubamba Valley for a picnic with a box lunch, a good moment for photos and a rest. Along the way you can also try a traditional drink such as frutillada.
The tour lasts 7 to 8 hours. Pickup is from your hotel or the train station in Ollantaytambo, transport is private, and the drop-off is at your hotel in Cusco in the afternoon. The entrance ticket is not included, so plan to buy it at the gate.
