| A trip through Peru consists of experiencing the imposing Andes with its snowy peaks, a dry desert on the coast and the humid Amazon rainforest. Many treasures from the Inca era have been preserved. It is difficult to choose from the many special destinations that Peru has to offer. But regardless of the locations, it will be a very diverse trip. * For a short impression watch the video here * Choose a planned individual journey or make with your personal accents * For a complete South America experience choose one of the combi travel |

Mountain bike tour Mory and Maras Fantastic as a day tour from Cusco
At 09:00 you will be picked up at your hotel and in an hour you will drive to the starting point of your mountain bike tour, first quietly descending and climbing on certain pieces of style towards Moray. After an optional visit to these ruins, descend via a fairly simple route (off-road) to the village of Maras. Here you can stop for your box lunch before descending to salineras salt pans via an increasingly technical route. (Entrance of Salineras is not included). From Salineras you descend to the Sacred Valley, via a very technical, narrow path. Optionally, you can choose an easier route: talk to your guide.
