Recommendations
Personalized Recommendations for Your Full Day Quad Bike Adventure
Hi! Here are my best tips to help you enjoy this amazing day in the Sacred Valley to the fullest:
What to Wear Wear long pants, a long-sleeve shirt or light jacket, and comfortable closed-toe shoes. Bring layers — mornings can be chilly and it warms up later. Don’t wear white clothes (you’ll get dusty!). Pack a small backpack with sunscreen, sunglasses, hat, and a reusable water bottle.
What to Bring
-
- Camera or phone with plenty of battery
- Light rain poncho (just in case)
- Cash in soles (for souvenirs or tips)
- Extra clothes to change after the tour — you’ll probably be covered in dust!
Best Time & Booking Book your tour in advance. Morning departures (7–9 AM) are ideal for fewer crowds and beautiful light. The dry season (April–October) is perfect, but the tour runs all year.
During the Ride Don’t worry if it’s your first time on a quad — the guides are patient and give you a practice session. You can also ride as a passenger if you prefer. Take it easy, enjoy the views, and stop often for photos. The ride through the countryside with mountains, farms, and llamas is magical.
At the Sites
-
- Moray: Walk slowly around the circular terraces and feel the temperature change. It’s an incredible Inca creation.
- Salineras: Take your time walking among the white salt pools. Chat with the local families if possible and buy some fresh Maras salt as a souvenir — it’s delicious and authentic.
Simple Tips for a Great Day Eat a good breakfast, stay hydrated, listen to your guide’s safety instructions, and be respectful of the local communities and sites. Leave only footprints and take home beautiful memories.
This tour is not just about riding — it’s about feeling the wind, admiring ancient wonders, and connecting with the real Sacred Valley. Many people say it becomes one of their favorite experiences in Cusco.
Enjoy every moment, smile at the locals, and have an unforgettable adventure!
