Full Day Horseback Riding Tour to Maras and Moray

About this experience

This private tour is the best way to explore the hiden places in Sacsayhuaman archeological park, this impresive place is located 15 min  away from Cusco city. 

All the regular tours takes just a few minutes to visit only the big walls, but you need almost 3 to 4 hours to visit this archeologycal park on a good way, there are lots of hiden places that the tourists don't go on a regular way, for example the "Devil's Balcony" (Caves made by the incas), the "Temple of The Moon" an ancient inca temple used for rituals for fertility, the "Inca Face" a natural shape on the nature that was considered sacred by the incas. 

If you love to explore and learn on a curious way about the incas, this is the best option for you! .
