    Full description

    Embark on an incredible experience on four wheels during this guided ATV adventure tour from Cusco through the Sacred Valley. Take in views of the Urubamba Mountains as you venture to Maras and the archeologist site of Moray.

    Leaving by van from Cusco, travel for approximately one hour to the community of Cruz Pata in the heart of the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Get ready for the start of your adventure after approximately 15 minutes of ATV training.

    Once ready, drive approximately 1.5 hours to the archaeological site of Moray to closely observe the remains of the terraces built by the Incas to experiment with the adaptation of crops.

    Later, hop back in the van to continue to the salt mines of Maras (outside only). Enjoy beautiful views of the Urubamba Mountain range and contemplate the peaks of the Verónica and Chicón Mountains.

    At the historic salt mines, you'll have the opportunity to take pictures from a viewpoint as well as buy the products made from the same salt that is found there.

    At the end of the trip, take a different route back to the city of Cusco, ending a day full of adrenaline.

    The ATV to the Circular terraces was awesome!!! And the circular terraces itself was amazing!!! Edgar did a great job explaining the history of the terraces. He also was very patient and kind, staying with me as I huffed and puffed going back up. The same was true of our other guide, whom I missed getting his name. He stayed with me as well during the uphill climb from the salineras. Both of them also took awesome videos of us, making the videos look like it was taken by a drone. Thank you guys for an awesome experience!!!

    Great tour. Driver was very experienced. I was a bit nervous because of the speed, but that's normal in Cusco and I could tell the driver was very familiar with the roads. When we arrived in Moray, the guide was amazing. He was very patient in teaching everyone how to ride the 4x4s, and once we started, made sure we were all watched over and taken care of. We had time to do some photo ops while on the 4x4 and off. The visit to the salt mine was interesting as well.

    Very nice tour! The landscape as you drive the quads to your destination is very beautiful, they chose a great route! You choose between seeing the lake or moras. We chose lake, its pretty but nothing out of this world so I would recommend choosing the other. The salt mines are amazing also and are given a good amount of time to see. The quad drive doesnt go too fast so if youre looking for big adventure maybe rent individually
