Great overview of the Incas and their site in the Sacred Valley
The Sacred Valley brings to life Incas, their history and their amazing engineering prowess. Our guide picked us up at 6am. Our first stop showed us how Alpaca wool was converted to Fibre from which the woolen clothes were made. We then visited the Chinchera Inca site where we saw our first glimpse of stepped farming. We then saw the amazing salt pans of Maras and the agriculture laboratory of Moray where the Incas experimented with different crops at different heights and soil. Lunch was a standard buffet lunch (Note drinks even water is not included). We then visited the final two sites of Ollayantambo and Pisac. Each of these sites provided glimpses into the culture of the Incas. This was a long day trip and we landed back in Cusco only around 7pm. Please note this trip may not be suitable for persons with Mobility issues as it involves a lot of walking with some steep inclines. I would recommend this tour if you have only 1 day to see Sacred however it is long and tiring

Everything was perfect, the guide, the vehicle, the timing, and the atmosphere. The Sacred Valley is absolutely stunning. I was amazed by the salt terraces in Maras. The lunch buffet was beautifully arranged and full of fresh, flavorful dishes. A truly elegant experience.

Can't beat the price
The tour guide did a really good job of keeping things on time, but it also means you don't get to stay too long at each location. Every spot was worth visiting, maybe except for the textile community where they are really pushing in sales, but it was understandable. Even the buffet was pretty good with lots of vegetable options. Pretty sad we had to miss Pisaq to catch a train at Ollantaytambo.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your detailed experience! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed our Sacred Valley, Maras, and Moray tour and that our guide did a great job keeping the itinerary organized and on schedule. We understand that this also meant having limited time at some of the destinations, especially with your train departure from Ollantaytambo. We’re glad to hear that you found the different stops worthwhile and enjoyed the buffet lunch, especially the variety of vegetable options. We also appreciate your honest feedback about the textile community and the time constraints that meant missing Pisac. Your comments are very valuable to us as we continue improving our tours and providing the best possible experience for our travelers. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you again for another unforgettable adventure in Peru!

A graceful tour
The guide was engaging, sharing insights about local traditions and Inca agriculture. The landscapes were extraordinary, especially in Moray. The lunch buffet was refined and served in a lovely setting surrounded by mountains. Highly recommended!

Tour Sacred Valley & Maras - Moray with buffet lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does Tour Sacred Valley & Maras - Moray with buffet lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $29 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 Tour Sacred Valley & Maras - Moray with buffet lunch take?
+
Plan for about 12 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 Tour Sacred Valley & Maras - Moray with buffet lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 89 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 509 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tour Sacred Valley & Maras - Moray with buffet lunch?
+
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 Tour Sacred Valley & Maras - Moray with buffet lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tour Sacred Valley & Maras - Moray with buffet lunch?
+
Around 178 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 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tour Sacred Valley & Maras - Moray with buffet lunch 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.
