What will you do

Maras – Moray is a tour of contemplation and walks in the open air. From the very moment of leaving the city of Cusco behind, we will be able to appreciate various landscapes that will gradually dazzle us. In addition, it is a historical review trip because these places were used by the inhabitants of the Tawantinsuyo, an ancient civilization that achieved great advances in agriculture, hydraulic and temperature control to have a fairly advanced agricultural production. Thanks to our guide we will learn important information about each of these places and what they came to represent for the inhabitants of ancient Peru. We will have transportation so our trip will be pleasant and comfortable. We will start early so that the trip is not so heavy and we will finish just at the right time to enjoy an exquisite lunch in the city of Cusco. The tour lasts approximately 6 hours. This tour is one of those that you will not be able to regret doing.
