Sacred Valley Bike Tour to Maras Moray offers an exciting adventure of biking down the hill to visit the two Inca ruins – Maras and Moray in the Sacred Valley of Incas. Both these sites have a historical significance.
It is ideal to sign up for the half day mountain biking tour while you acclimate in Cusco city before your trip to Machu Picchu.
Salinas de Maras are geometrical salt puddles on a slope of a hill. These salt puddles are manually supplied with natural spring waters. The salt farmers then let the water to evaporate.
It leaves behind salt crystals which are scrapped out manually. This is a traditional salt farming method which has been followed since Incan civilization.
The agricultural terrace of Moray has been of importance to Incas. These circular terraces have different layers. To Incas, this was more of an agricultural laboratory. It is here they have been inventing different farming techniques.
Each layer of this agricultural terrace has a different temperature. This helped the Incan farmers to determine the quality of growth of crops at different temperature levels.
We operate this half day mountain bike adventure to the archaeological site of Moray and Maras both in small groups and as a private guided tour. Contact us to plan your unforgettable half day tour to the two iconic sites of Sacred Valley of Incas.

Our vacation was great to the land of the Incas in Perú with Gringo Tours.
We strongly recommend traveling... read more in Cusco. We had an amazing experience.. Thanks to our guide Juan!
We highly recommend booking the Machu Picchu day tríp from Cusco with Happy Gringo!
Everything else was a dumpster fire that had us waiting for two hours for a guide to show up (he stated he hadn’t been notified from the travel agency even though we went to the physical Happy Gringo location to check in the day before AND provided all requested information in person and again via WhatsApp). If we hadn’t reached out to them on WhatsApp, I’m certain we would have still been standing outside of the train station waiting. The information you get when you get to the Machu Picchu location is also confusing, telling you to go to a Pueblo, but when you look it up on the maps, there are several listed, which further added to the confusion. Very much underperformed our expectations for nearly $800.
Final thought, Machu Picchu is very much worth the visit, but not with this outfit.
My family had difficulty to find a travel agent to book the Machu Picchu tour, however the workers of Gringo Tours were very helpful... read more to assist us with our trip to Machu Picchu.
The pick up was on time, the journey from Cusco to Aguad Calientes town was amazing with fantástic views, and finally the tour guide at Machu picchu was very knowledgeable.

No unpleasant surprises, everyhting was just as planned. The trip was very nice and the guide was top class. Thanks to Marko and entire Happy Gringo team.
We heard that Happy Gringo Tours was popular for Inca Trail to Machu Picchu and booked the trail with them. On reaching Cusco we decided to do the Sacred Valley Biking experience with them too. It was the best decision we made. We felt very safe as there was a supporting vehicle trailing behind us and we could simply stop biking and get into the vehicle if we felt tired. The guide made sure that we biked on single tracks and led the group. It was both safe and fun.
