From €58 per person
See availability →A private Urubamba ATV tour to Moray and the Maras salt mines, with a safety briefing, a practice session and a bilingual guide. Hotel pick-up included.
The Urubamba ATV tour to Moray and Maras starts in the centre of the Sacred Valley, where the guide explains why the Incas made this area their agricultural hub. The outing is private. Hotel pick-up and drop-off cover Urubamba and nearby Ollantaytambo, Yucay or Calca, whichever option you pick when booking. Departures are in the morning or the afternoon, also by option.
A transfer brings you to the ATV base for a safety briefing and some practice. Then you set off on a Honda TRX 250, passing farming communities and rolling hills under Andean skies. You can choose a single or a shared ATV.
- Moray, round terraces where the Incas tested crops and microclimates
- Maras, a village known for its colonial architecture
- Maras Salt Mines, thousands of ponds cascading down the slope
The bilingual guide adds Inca history and local traditions, plus a cultural talk on the Andean worldview, a symbolic look at Pachamama and, if you want it, a ritual. Helmet, gloves and, when needed, a rain poncho are provided. The Moray ticket, the Maras entrance, food, drinks and tips are not included.
It is not suitable for pregnant women, people with back or heart problems, or people without experience.
