This was a great tour....
This was a great tour. Pickup was a little disorganized. Our guide Raul has so much information to share in both English and Spanish. For a shorter tour, this was great value for money. Both the terraces and salt mines was very interesting. The salt mines are not actively worked during the raining season, so we could not see all the different colors.

Guide, please, sometimes do not talk.
It was beautiful. The price was great. However, the guide would in the whole 4 hours not shut up once. We were going crazy. There was no need to start talking about stuff we were not visiting after the itinerary.

Cool views of salt mines and Moray
A good half day outside of Cusco to see the salt mines and the archaeological site Moray. The guide was very knowledgeable of Incan history and communicated well throughout the tour in both Spanish and English. He also gave enough time to explore or see each of the attractions on our own. I was not fond of the supplementary trip to the textile shop. A person of the shop followed me around the shop and kept pressuring me to buy something, which made me feel uncomfortable.

Great tour!
This was a great experience! The guide was incredibly informative. He made sure the journey was smooth and everyone was ok at all times.

highly recommend this tour!
Incredible value for the price! Our guide was super knowledgeable, made sure to give detailed information in English and Spanish, and took time for photos for each group. We had initially booked a longer tour but we were all so tired we decided to find a shorter one and we were so glad for it.

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Moray and Salinera de Maras Half Day: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does Moray and Salinera de Maras Half Day cost?
+
Prices start at $12 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cusco usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Moray and Salinera de Maras Half Day take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cusco is not rushed.
Is Moray and Salinera de Maras Half Day worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 50 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Moray and Salinera de Maras Half Day?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Moray and Salinera de Maras Half Day suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Moray and Salinera de Maras Half Day?
+
Around 18 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cusco can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cusco and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Moray and Salinera de Maras Half Day start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cusco within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cusco?
+
On Outty we rank every Cusco experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sacred Valley Full Day Tour, Full-Day Humantay Lake Trek (Meals Included), Cusco: Rainbow Mountain & Red Valley Premium Day Trip with Meals. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cusco?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cusco?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
