Exploring Peru's Sacred Valley
The Sacred Valley of the Incas stretches along the Urubamba River, surrounded by Andean mountains, agricultural terraces, traditional communities, and archaeological sites that reflect the region's Inca heritage.
Some of its best-known places include Pisac, Ollantaytambo, Chinchero, the circular terraces of Moray, and the Maras Salt Mines. However, not every Sacred Valley tour follows the same route.
At Tierra Biru Expeditions, you can choose between a classic Sacred Valley experience and an extended route featuring Maras and Moray. Travelers planning to visit Machu Picchu can also combine the Sacred Valley with an overnight stay in Aguas Calientes, visiting Machu Picchu the following day.
Explore the available itineraries below to compare the places visited, trip duration, and travel arrangements.
Sacred Valley Day Tours
Discover the Sacred Valley in a single day with two different routes. The classic itinerary focuses on the valley's traditional archaeological highlights, while the Super Sacred Valley route adds visits to Moray and the Maras Salt Mines. Both options are designed for travelers who want to explore the Sacred Valley without combining the trip with an overnight visit to Machu Picchu.

Classic vs. Super Sacred Valley: What's the Difference?
The main difference between the Classic and Super Sacred Valley tours is the route and the archaeological sites visited. The classic route typically focuses on the eastern Sacred Valley, particularly Pisac, before continuing toward Ollantaytambo. The Super Sacred Valley route places greater emphasis on sites such as Chinchero, Moray, and the Maras Salt Mines. Despite the name, "Super" does not necessarily mean a private or luxury service. It refers to an alternative itinerary featuring additional or different stops. The best choice depends on which places you want to visit and whether you plan to continue to Machu Picchu.
