Very good tour. Would be nice to have more than 15-20min at Maras and Moray. In addition to Maras and Moray, we visited Chinchero village and one store on the way to the salt mines. Maybe if we didn’t have those stops, we could spend more time at Maras and Moray. Also, the store had the same items that the store at Maras itself has and slightly cheaper.

Moray is an amazing place to visit. No doubt the Inkas were uber smart.
The Salt mines were quite interesting. You even get a small bag of salt with your entry fee.

We had a great time! Informative tour guide, cool side stops, and good chocolate along the way.
We started with Moray and were able to learn about the agricultural habits of the Incas (and those who came before). Additionally, we were able to take a short hike around the site to stretch our legs after a long bus ride.
We made a cool side stop to learn a bit about how the Peruvians make their alpaca products.
Then on to the salt mines, again to learn about the resourcefulness employed by the people to use their surroundings to produce food product.

Great experience, good educational opportunity

I landed in Cusco at 7 am and this was one of the only half day tours that wasn’t in the city. I enjoyed everything about this trip and would recommend it to anyone.

Our tour guide Nora was great! She had a lot of interesting information and was friendly.

The tour itself is paced well. It goes to a few different locations like the textile shop, a good view of the potato terraces, the Moray archeological site, and of course the salt terraces / mine. This ended up being one of the most unique places I have every seen. I highly recommend this tour.

This is a great tour to do if you don’t have the time for a full Sacred Valley tour! Our guide, Nora, was so informative and friendly. She was very clear on the schedule and what we would do and see at each stop. Moray and the salt mines at Maras were both so unique and really interesting to learn about! We had an appropriate amount of time at each place and it was a great way to see a few sites.

We had a fun-filled day visiting two incredible sights; the Inca agriculture site and the (still operating) salt flats site. There were two additional stops along the way that broke up the drive and contributed to our experience. The guide was fun to be around and had endless interesting facts to share. He took great photos of us at each site. All four of us were so glad we chose this tour. Communication and pickup were very organized and efficient.

Good half day tour. If you only want to see a little of sacred valley and salt mines it’s great! Stopped at two places between the sites. A textile shop where they show you how they make textiles and a salt/chocolate shop where you can buy salt from the mines and chocolate with the salt in it. The women at the textile shop were VERY pushy to buy their products and were severely overpriced compared to the same items in town. The visits at the site were somewhat short but the tour guide did do a lot of explaining during the drives to try and lengthen the time at the sites as much as possible. It is a big group so not too much of a personal experience. Again, good quick half day tour.

This tour is great if you're short of time and want this tour last minute and just want to see the Maras salt mines" and Moray Inca ruins. It does the bare minimum of transporting you to the sites.

However, if you have a bit more time, I'd say it's worth going to a local agency in one of the main squares and getting this tour for more than half the price (e.g. 50 soles rather than 25USD via find local trips) with lunch included.

The Kantu tour picked us up on time, but the guide knew very little about the sites we visited (e.g. did not know how many people approx the Incan plantation site would feed or where the salt water came from).

The tour was also very rushed. We spent over an hour at a local weaving shop (where the guide was quite pushy and kept stressing over and over again that all tourists should support local businesses - this is true, but we can't buy something from every shop we go past!). This meant that we only spent 20 mins total at Moray and 15 mins at the Moras Salt mine tours.
