The best ways to get to this wonder of the world
Depending on your sense of adventure and how much time you have available, we offer daily departures on the three main routes at Machu Picchu Altitude.
1. Train to Machu Picchu (The most comfortable option)
This is perfect for those who want to make the most of their time. Take in the stunning views of the Sacred Valley from the panoramic windows of the Vistadome train or experience the elegant Expedition train.
- Duration: Full day or 2 days/1 night.
- Recommended for: Families, couples, and travelers on a tight schedule.
2. Inca Trail (The Legendary Trail)
This is the most famous trek in Latin America. Crossing mountain passes over 4,200 metres high, it reaches the Sun Gate (Inti Punku) at sunrise.
Permits for 2026 sell out months in advance, so we recommend booking with us today to secure your place.
3. Salkantay Trek (For adrenaline junkies)
This is an alternative route to the Inca Trail. Stunning! It takes you past the snow-capped peak of Salkantay and through the jungle. You will see glaciers and tropical landscapes.
Machu Picchu Tickets: What You Need to Know for 2026
The ticketing system has changed in order to preserve the sanctuary. Currently, there are three different tour routes (Routes 1, 2 and 3) which determine which parts of the citadel you visit, as well as whether or not you can climb additional mountains, such as Huayna Picchu or Machu Picchu Mountain.
Important note: don't risk arriving in Cusco without tickets. In-person ticket sales in Aguas Calientes are limited, resulting in long queues that could ruin your experience. At Machu Picchu Altitude, we guarantee your entry to the circuit of your choice in advance.
Top Tips for Your Trip
Follow these recommendations from our experts to make your visit perfect:
- Acclimatization: Spend at least two days in Cusco before embarking on strenuous hikes.
- Luggage: Pack only the essentials in a small backpack (maximum 5 kg for the train).
- Documents: You must bring your original passport to enter the citadel.
- Best time to visit: The dry season (May through September) offers clear skies, but the rainy season (November through
March) offers lush green landscapes and fewer crowds.
