This tour was a super fun...
This tour was a super fun way to see the salt mines, riding down into the valley with a great view without the crowds. Our guide was really great, and helpful when the altitude wore me out a bit. Bike ride is mostly downhill, we didn't have mountain biking experience which was ok, just bring a sense of adventure :)

Great MTB ride
Great ride. Due to TripAdvisor's poor interface, my lengthy review got deleted, not in the mood to write everything again. But jose manuel was a great guide, highly recommended

Unforgettable adventure
My bike ride to Maras and Moray was an absolute highlight of my trip. The scenery along the route is breathtaking, offering stunning views you simply cannot get from a tour bus. Having exclusive access to certain paths made the entire journey feel incredibly special and private. Jose was fantastic, extremely knowledgeable, professional, and kept me feeling safe and comfortable the entire time. If you want an authentic, active, and immersive experience in the Sacred Valley, this is worth it. Highly recommended!

Great tour
This was a good tour, we had poor weather but Jose made the most of it. He gave alot of information and was a good tour guide, his English is very good. I think this was well worth it and would recommend.
via Viator
Jose is a truly special guide. His passion for Inca culture is inspiring. One day was far too short—next time for sure!
We had an amazing mountain biking experience with our guide Jose. He is a true professional with extensive experience and an impressive cultural background. He has an answer to everything, whether it’s about biking, local history, or Peruvian culture. The route was very well chosen, varied, and well adapted to the conditions. We explored beautiful trails with breathtaking views, right in the heart of authentic rural Peru, far from the crowds. A well-organized, authentic, and memorable experience. Highly recommended! 🚵♂️🇵🇪

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Mountain Bike Ride in Moray to Maras and Salt Mines: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does Mountain Bike Ride in Moray to Maras and Salt Mines cost?
+
Prices start at $109 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 Mountain Bike Ride in Moray to Maras and Salt Mines take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Mountain Bike Ride in Moray to Maras and Salt Mines worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 20 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 Mountain Bike Ride in Moray to Maras and Salt Mines?
+
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 Mountain Bike Ride in Moray to Maras and Salt Mines suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Mountain Bike Ride in Moray to Maras and Salt Mines?
+
Around 7 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Mountain Bike Ride in Moray to Maras and Salt Mines 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.
What is included in Mountain Bike Ride in Moray to Maras and Salt Mines?
+
Included: Use of Gloves; Bottled water; Use of bicycle; Driver/guide; and Snacks. Not included: Alcoholic drinks (available to purchase); Entrance to Moray (70 Soles); and Entrance to Salt Mines (20 Soles) is not included. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Mountain Bike Ride in Moray to Maras and Salt Mines include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 23 listed pickup locations in and around Cusco. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Mountain Bike Ride in Moray to Maras and Salt Mines offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

+
