4.Chinchero,Moray & Salt Mines drop-off in Ollantaytambo

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 793 reviews · 8 - 9 hours · from $27

Travel from Cusco through Chinchero’s weaving country, Moray’s circular Inca terraces, the Maras salt ponds and Ollantaytambo’s fortress. English or Spanish guides, buffet lunch and drop-off at the train station make this an efficient choice before Machu Picchu. Guides may include Julio, Felipe, John or Nora.

“Thank you Nora and Victor! Nora kept the energy up all day and could seamlessly switch between Spanish and English. Lots of information that helped bring the Inca history to life. Pick up was right on time and Nora gave me a call two minutes before their arrival to let us know to get ready. The van is quite cosy, but the longest journey you’ll do is 45 minutes, so no issues at all. Nora makes sure to give you information as you’re going along as well so that you have a good understanding of where you’re visiting. Lunch was good, lots of options for vegetarians as well. Really enjoyable…”

“Reliable logistics. Nice guide who did his utmost to make us discover the 2 sites in a reduced timing. On the other hand; tired of these imposed stores, not indicated in the program, disrespectfully time consuming compared to the sites, falsely described as "manufacture" "artisan", without prices displayed. And unfortunately we don't have much choice but to stay at home.Auto-translated”
