Reception at Cusco Airport and private transportation with guide to the sacred valley (1 1/2hrs approx) on the route we will visit the ruins and market of Pisac.
Pisac is located in the most amazing area of the sacred valley of the Incas that controlled a route which connected the Inca Empire with Paucartambo, on the border of the eastern jungles as well its market has plenty of small handicraft shops and is worth a visit on any day of the week as is a good place to buy the local ceramics including a huge and varied collection of hand-painted multi-coloured beads where you have a good opportunity to try your bargain skills interacting with the local craftsmen.

Full day excursion to the Urubamba Valley, visiting: The fortress of Ollantaytambo, an architectural group that in the days of the Tahuantinsuyo empire was a gigantic agricultural, administrative, social, religious and military complex that is considered the best surviving example of Inca town planning. Then we will continue to Maras where we can see the snowy mountain of the Incas Sacred Valley and the Vilcabamba. At present this district keeps attractive pre-Hispanic, colonial and republican, highlighting people in the colonial doorways with coats of the nobles and chieftains from the sixteenth and twentieth century’s. Maras town splits on two routes, one to the archaeological complex of Moray and the other to the salt mines of Maras, each with an approximate distance of 4 km.
Salineras: or "salt mines"consist of about 2000 small wells, which were already exploited since Inca times as a means of economic exchange and is still being exploited by the locals. The water, which is exposed to the sun, leaves salt on the bed. Viewed from the peak, the myriad of rectangles look Like an enormous painting designed by nature. Inland, not far from Maras, we can find the Moray ruins, it is famous for its sunken amphitheater, formed by four circular terraces which seem to disappear within the highlands, by way of an artificial crater are reminiscent of a Greek theatre. Apparently, the place was an Inca agricultural research center dedicated to the experimentation of cultures around the different altitudinal levels of the plots (some more than 100 m deep) besides being considered for Incas as a place of concentration of female energy, which is considered as a magnetic center of the Pachamama.
