What our travellers think of their stay
Moray, a historical site located in the Cusco area, will be appreciated by anyone touring this region of Peru.
My suggestion
After visting Machu Picchu, stay overnight in Ollantaytombo and plan a combined visit to Moray and Maras the following day. You will save some time, as opposed to going there to and from Cusco.
Moray is located at the centre of the Urubamba valley and stands as a fine example of Inca terrace farming.
My suggestion
Try to visit when the terraces are in crop!
A one-day hike along which you get to visit and explore the two most iconic sites in the Sacred Valley.
My suggestion
Don't return to Cusco the same evening! This hike can serve as a fantastic way to begin your exploration of the Sacred Valley before heading on to Machi Picchu (by spending the night in Ollantaytambo along the way, for example).
The large circular terraces in the Cuzco region were most probably used as a centre of agricultural research during the Inca era.
My suggestion
Lots of people go on a tour combining Moray and Maras, but both sites are reasonably easy to access. Get there yourself by taxi/bus/on foot - your choice!
