      The Maras Salt Mines in the Sacred Valley of Cusco, Peru, have a history dating back to pre-Incan times (Wari culture, between 500-1100 AD). They utilize an underground saltwater spring to feed thousands of terraced pools created by local people, and are now a place of trade. They extract salt three times a year in different colors: pink, white, and brown.

A Temple of the Sun was built with giant stones; to this day, there is no explanation for how these polished granite stones were transported to the top.

    Joyful and Learning

    We enjoyed a lot on our trip to the Sacred Valley of Incas with Fredy being our guide. Fredy was more like a long known friend with a great sense of humor and friendly attitude. Such is a guide that every traveller would look for. The tour was simply wonderful with a lot of learning about the Incas and their way of living. Thanks to Fredy for being patient with us and for answering all our queries.

    Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites): questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.

    How does Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites) compare to similar tours in Cusco?

    +

    It ranks #7 of the 7 similar experiences we compared in Cusco, with an Outty Ranking of 63. At $52 it is priced in line with similar options (typically $43). Best for families and travelers who want a full-day outing.

    Who is Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites) best for?

    +

    It suits families and travelers who want a full-day outing best, based on its 10-hour length, all-ages access and free cancellation up to 24 hours before.

    Is Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites) good value?

    +

    It is fairly priced. It starts at $52, close to the $43 typical for similar experiences in Cusco.

    How much does Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites) cost?

    +

    Prices start at $52 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 Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites) take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 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 Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites) worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 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 Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites)?

    +

    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 Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites) suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites)?

    +

    Around 1 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites) 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), Full-Day Rainbow Mountain Trek (Meals Included). 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 Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites)?

    +

    Included: Transport; Lunch; and Bi-lingual guide. Not included: Entrance Ticket All Sites (70 soles ) + 20 soles Salineras. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites) include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 9 listed pickup locations in and around Cusco. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites) 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.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites)?

    +

    What happens to Sacred Valley of the Incas – Full Day Private Tour (All Sites) if the weather is bad?
