Maras Moray half day

Highly recommended tour
4.5/5

Description

Maras, a picturesque town located on the impressive mountain slopes, is noted for its valuable heritage of ancient salt mines dating back to the Inca era. These unique salt mines are shallow wells of saline waters, whose tradition of salt production has endured over the centuries.

A short distance from Maras is Moray, a fascinating set of agricultural terraces organized in concentric circles. It is believed that these terraces were used as experimental agricultural laboratories, where various plants were grown to adapt them to different altitudes and climates.

This experience is truly a must-have for travelers of all ages and types: families looking for cultural enrichment, couples looking to get away together, and groups of friends looking for authentic adventures. Even solo travelers will find Maras and Moray a destination full of exciting discoveries.
