Best of Peru's Sacred Valley: Maras Salt Mines and Moray Ruins 🇵🇪

From Ollantaytambo, we were able to plan a fun little day trip to the Maras Salt Mines and the Moray Ruins. We hired a driver for the morning and enjoyed a very scenic drive through the Sacred Valley to our two destinations. A busy morning called for a more relaxing afternoon and evening, and we enjoyed trying what Mark Twain claims to be “the most delicious fruit known to man,” as well as a tasty dinner feast with a view. 🇵🇪

The ruins were amazing, the sky is so blue....too bad about the fee for using a drone, would have let you explore even more. Looking forward to the next video.
