Machu Picchu Tickets

Machu Picchu is indeed a fascinating destination and a dream for many travelers. However, securing Machu Picchu tickets can be a bit of a challenge.

How to Buy Machu Picchu Tickets:

  • To visit Machu Picchu, you need to purchase an entrance ticket in advance.
  • The official website to buy tickets is https://tuboleto.cultura.pe/ You can also buy tickets through authorized travel agencies or tour operators.
  • It’s advisable to buy your tickets as early as possible, especially during the high season (May to September), as the number of visitors allowed per day is limited.

Ticket Experiences:

  • Machu Picchu offers five different ticket experiences, allowing you to choose the type of visit that suits your preferences:
  • Machu Picchu Only: This ticket grants you access to the main archaeological site of Machu Picchu.
  • Machu Picchu + Wayna Picchu: This ticket includes access to both Machu Picchu and the iconic Wayna Picchu mountain. Please note that climbing Wayna Picchu requires a separate time slot and has limited availability.
  • Machu Picchu + Machu Picchu Mountain: This ticket allows you to explore Machu Picchu and hike up Machu Picchu Mountain for a panoramic view of the site.
  • Machu Picchu + Inca Bridge: This ticket includes entry to Machu Picchu and a visit to the Inca Bridge, an ancient structure carved into the mountainside.
  • Machu Picchu + Huchuy Picchu: This ticket grants access to Machu Picchu and the new Huchuy Picchu viewpoint, offering a different perspective of the site.

Remember, it’s essential to check the latest information and guidelines from official sources, as policies and procedures may change.

Enjoy your trip to Machu Picchu!

Amazing 4 days on Inca trail

I had the most wonderful 4 days on the Inca trail with amazing guide Carlos. Although originally the group was with 6 people, the rest was sick and I had a private tour. Carlos took great care of me, making sure we saw the best sights and avoid the other large groups. 100% recommended!

Chirag S 2025/10/24

Excellent Adventure

Dayvit & Jimmy were awesome tour guides. Dayvit was patient, kind, and extremely knowledgeable! He made the trip a learning experience in addition to a great adventure. Jimmy really had our backs in all situations and had all photos (from all angles) covered. Definitely recommend this experience!

Steve B 2025/10/04

Choquequirao Trek to Machu Picchu 7 days

Our 1 day tour thru the Sacred Vally with Danny was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable and able to answer all our questions in detail. I would recommend asking for him personally if you are able.

Katy Bru 2025/07/19

Interesting itinerary and great guide

We did on one day tour of the sacred Valley as part of a larger itinerary. We saw Pisac, Moray, the Mara’s Salt mines and Ollantaytambo. Our guide was Ray, and he was fantastic. Very friendly and knowledgeable. He shared not only about Incan history but his family stories, and how traditions are kept alive today. Peruvian traffic always scares me and our driver Fortu was great, like a pro. I felt very safe. Highly recommend this day.

Wow. We had such an incredible experience in Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu. Our guide, Dayvit, is the most knowledgeable guide we have ever had. He has such an extensive knowledge of the history and is very friendly and helpful. If you are planning a trip to Peru, I highly recommend SAM travel and be sure to request Dayvit!

Emma Dinzebach Clark 2023/01/10

2 day tour sacred valley / Machu Picchu highly recommend! David was the best tour guide. He knows an incredible amount about Incan culture and is personable and funny. He also kept us up to date on a political situation happening when we were there and was informative. Overall, this tour checks all the boxes. Thank you!

Nupur Joshi 2023/01/02

We used SAM Travel for a 2D/1N trip from Cusco to Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu on Dec 25-26, 2022. The team was good with communication from the start - both Saul and Junior were very helpful and professional with answering any questions and clearing up any misunderstandings. Our guide, Miguel, was prompt, pleasant, and quite knowledgeable. We enjoyed his company and insight over the 2 day trip and recommend him to anyone booking with SAM Travel.

Xueying Chen 2022/12/20

We booked the Classic Cusco to Machu Picchu tour with SAM travel which we really had a good experience. SAM travel is very responsive during the communication and cater to our changes needed. Our guide is Ray who is also an very awesome guide. He is knowledgeable, patient, humorous as well reliable, he help us take many good photos and also go extra mile to help with our request. Thanks Ray! Thanks SAM travel that gave us good memories in Peru! Highly recommend if you consider booking any tour in Cusco.

Powerful! This journey tests your humanity and leaves you in awe of yourself and the beauty that Pachamama provides. April 2024 We conquered the Inca trail and it was only made possible with the help and guidance from our expert guides Jean Pierre (JP) and Jimmy. The knowledge these gentlemen shared was admired by all of our group and the envy of other trail hikers who stopped to listen. The hike has many layers of challenges including language barriers, altitude sensitivities and food specifications. The team at Sam travel exceeded the needs and went above to ensure our comforts were met. A special mention must be made to Mario, the Chef who somehow performed magic with nutritious flavourful meals to satisfy even the pickiest consumers and Francesco who was our lead porter who orchestrated the harmony that happened behind the scenes to get everything done. Nothing less than marvellous from this team. Thank you to each of the group who made our trek a remarkable experience.

The whole experience was amazing. Ray, our guide answered all of our questions and definitely had our best interest in mind the whole time. Timothy the cook made fantastic food and somehow found a way to prepare a birthday cake with no notice! Boni our head porter and his whole crew were kind, accommodating, and had such upbeat attitudes which really made the experience great!

I spent two days with Sam Travel’s guide Raymier, who guided us through the one-day 12-km stretch of the Inca trail and then took us to Machu Picchu the next day. In my group, I was always the last one on the trail because I come from the coast and I’m not used to altitudes, and honestly I could also have prepared physically a little better. Raymier respected my pace, never rushed me, and supported me throughout the ardous trail. He had much knowledge to share. I speak Spanish, but ended up in an English tour, and Ray’s English was very good. He was funny, respectful, and versatile. He knew where to take all the best photos and patiently took photos of all of us. I would trust Sam Travel again especially if I was lucky enough to have Ray as a guide again.
