Maras and Moray ATV adventure in the Sacred Valley - This tour operates just 25 minutes from Urubamba, or an hour from Cusco. Our English speaking guide Lisandro was professional, knowledgeable about the ruins and salt mines, and a good teacher for those that didn’t know how to ride atvs. We rode roughly 35 minutes to Moray, walked around the amphitheater, then rode back on gorgeous back roads with almost no cars at speeds of 20-30mph. My kids loved it. Then a van drove us to Maras salt mines 15 minutes away for a tour, and a stop at a salt and chocolate store that was not a tourist trap, but instead a fun tasting event where some people bought special black and pink salts, as well as chocolates from Peru. It was a great day and a steal at $40 per person. Just a heads up that you need to pay $20 to enter the moray ruins (ticket good for a week to up to 16 sites) and then another $6 to enter the salt mines. Worth every penny as an experience and to support the friendly and hard working local people of the sacred valley.

Amazing! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Maravilloso tour! Era la primera vez que mi esposo visitaba Moray y la experiencia fue maravillosa. Wilson se encargo de que esta experiencia fuera genial, con los datos que aportaba y su carisma. Lo único que pediría, a los que tomen estos tours, es que respeten tanto el lugar como a las personas a cargo del tour y a los participantes. Tuvimos una desagradable experiencia con el resto de participantes quienes fueron completamente groseros y no respetaron las normas que los guías del tour nos dieron. Ademas de eso, que no fue culpa de los guías, fue un día maravilloso el cual recordaremos siempre y por supuesto volveremos y preguntaremos por Wilson. Gracias!
Wonderful tour! It was the first time my husband visited Moray and the experience was wonderful. Wilson took care of making this experience great, with the data he provided and his charisma. The only thing I would ask, to those who take these tours, is to respect both the place and the people in charge of the tour and the participants. We had an unpleasant experience with the rest of the participants who were completely rude and did not respect the rules that the tour guides gave us. In addition to that, which was not the fault of the guides, it was a wonderful day that we will always remember and of course we will return and ask about Wilson. Thank you!

Exciting adventure! - What an exciting adventure! My daughter and I had a blast, the guides were very knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating! I had booked the train to Ollantaytambo with only a half an hour to spare after the tour was done and these guys made the transport to the train station happen (with a very small additional charge)! We made our train just in time all because of their wonderful support!

Highly recommended - I really enjoyed this tour, very well organised and the guide was excellent. ATVs were lots of fun, Moray Manus was worth seeing, and the Salt pools were amazing.

Keep calm and enjoy the ride! - This was such an awsome experience! My son and I had a fantastic time riding our ATV’s while enjoying breathtaking views. Our tour guide Edgar was the best. He was informative, helpful and made sure everyone was safe while enjoying their time. Please note they are not joking about getting dirty. Definitely dress accordingly. Happy travels!!!

ATV tour. Great fun for the whole family - The quad tour was exciting especially for our teenage boys. The salt mines were very interesting and primitively beautiful. All of the guys and our transportation were professional, clean and timely. Views of the sacred valley were amazing and the ATVs were very well-maintained and lightly used.

Probably Best Tour - There were some hiccups at first but it’s understandable and they were awesome to correct any mistake and made everything smooth and perfect picked up as always on time taken care of every step of the way the zip line was just awesome and I have done this and hated it in the past but this one was just different then off to atv omg the views our tour guide Wilson takes awesome pictures and his knowledge on point I really think gratuity should be included at least a minimum because they honestly deserve it and not everyone has gratuity cash with them. Yes Moreau and the salts are things to definetly see but what made it special was our tour guide Wilson I wish I remember the one of zip lines because him and his partnered did and outstanding job as well. I don’t know if I didn’t read the details correctly which I am pretty sure we didn’t but we were drop off at main plaza de armas for dinner but we were muddy and tired so ignored the restaurant and off to our hotel we just walked about 18 mins other times we take any taxi they are all safe and it’s really cheap but we were ok with walking back to hotel.

Failed to collect or communicate - DO NOT BOOK WITH THIS COMPANY! - This tour company failed to collect me, contact me, or answer my messages through trip advisor, whatsapp or answer my calls. I am beyond annoyed to have wasted a day in Cusco when I could have arranged another tour. Dreadful service. Do not use this company.
