The officials in charge of Machu Picchu have put capacity limits in to effect.

If you are traveling in high season BUY YOUR TICKETS ON LINE AND IN ADVANCE.

If you are climbing Huayna Picchu you buy your combined ticket at 150 soles, and for MP alone it is still 126.

There is also a call center if you cannot negotiate the website which is largely in Spanish.

You cannot buy child or student tickets online at this time.

There is an email if you are having trouble with the website, you can correspond in English

Thanks for putting this up! I am very nervous- I leave for Peru tonight with plans to go to Machu Picchu on Monday. Our tour guide called us this morning telling us he needed to purchase our tickets. I hope it's not an issue!

Usually it is not...

try to get them the night B4 at

the cultural center on the Plaza in AC

to be safe if all else fails.

New Procedure effective 7/20 I think.

You can see how many tix are left on line. At the moment sold out thru Monday. Would think after school hols are over it will be better.
