This tour begins with a departure from Cusco or your hotel in the Sacred Valley. Your day begins with an immersion into a traditional hat-making workshop, discovering a true artisanal heritage passed down from generation to generation. You then begin a panoramic hike from the village of Maras. This gentle walk allows you to arrive from the heights at the famous Maras salt mines, offering a unique, plunging view over thousands of salt pools.
