How booking works

  1. Choose the route. Each ticket is one official route; the table above shows who each one is for.
  2. Pick the date and entry time. The calendar shows the slots that are really left, from the Ministry of Culture availability.
  3. Enter each traveler as in their passport. The name and passport number on the ticket must match the document you show at the gate.
  4. Pay in US dollars. By card or PayPal. You get a confirmation email at once, and your ticket appears in Mi Tour, your itinerary, once our team issues it.

Machu Picchu tickets: common questions

Which ticket should I buy for Machu Picchu?
For a first visit, Circuit 2A Classic. It starts at the postcard viewpoint and then walks the whole Inca city, in up to 2 h 30. For a summit, Huayna Picchu (3A) or Machu Picchu Mountain (1A).
Where can I buy official tickets for Machu Picchu?
The Ministry of Culture sells them on its official portal, in soles. We buy that same official ticket in your name and charge in US dollars, with the availability of all 11 routes on one calendar and help on WhatsApp.
Which ticket includes Huayna Picchu?
Route 3A. It costs $81.90 per adult with the card fee and allows up to 6 hours inside. Its daily quota is small, so it sells out before the city routes.
How far ahead should I book?
For Huayna Picchu, 3 to 4 months ahead from June to August; for the city routes, 2 to 4 weeks. Each ticket page shows the dates and entry times left.
Does the ticket include the bus?
No. The bus from Aguas Calientes to the entrance ($24 round trip), the train and a guide are separate.
How much do children pay?
Children aged 3 to 17 pay $40.95 on most routes, and under-3s enter free. Some routes have no child fare: each ticket page shows its fares.
Can I enter twice with one ticket?
No. Each ticket is one entry, on one route, at one entry time. A second visit or a second route needs a second ticket.
