Machu Picchu Tour 2 Days | Last Minute Reservation

For the past few years, entrance to Machu Picchu has been restricted to a limited number of people. Tickets often sell out, and spaces are not available until two months in advance, leaving many travelers without the opportunity to visit Machu Picchu. However, we have a solution for last-minute bookings and we are happy to explain it to you.

The Ministry of Culture is the entity that manages entrances to Machu Picchu and allows for the sale of approximately 1000 tickets to enter Machu Picchu in the town of Aguas Calientes, in person, one day before the visit. This means that you can acquire the income of the circuits in person and with an official document that identifies you (national ID card or passport). Please note that this process has specific conditions:

  1. The purchase of tickets is personal.
  2. The point of sale is in the town of Aguas Calientes.
  3. The process is done one day before the Machu Picchu tour.

We will guide you through this entire process in addition to the regular reservation, and we will now explain the itinerary to you.

CUSCO - AGUAS CALIENTES

The tour begins with a transfer from your hotel in Cusco picking you up from your hotel early in the morning to the town of Ollantaytambo where we will board the train to Aguas Calientes. It is in this town that the guide will wait for you to help with the process of buying tickets. They will guide you to the appropriate line and provide assistance as you acquire your ticket for the following day. This process is strictly personal, so you must bring your identification documents. Once you have your ticket and assigned time, you will coordinate with the guide regarding the time of the Machu Picchu tour for the next day.

You will have the afternoon free to enjoy the town or relax in the thermal baths that give the town its name.

Overnight in Aguas Calientes.
