Machu Picchu can be visited year-round, but the dry season from May to October offers the clearest skies and the most stable conditions for exploring the site and completing trekking routes like the Inca Trail. June, July, and August are the busiest months, with high demand for entry tickets and train seats. The wet season from November to April brings daily rainfall, especially in January and February, though the citadel remains open and crowds are noticeably smaller. Regardless of when you plan to travel, booking your Machu Picchu tour at least 3 months in advance is strongly recommended - entry tickets and Inca Trail permits sell out well ahead of the travel date, particularly during peak season.
