Overview

This is the fastest way to visit Machu Picchu while still enjoying an unforgettable experience with our professional team. Whether you choose the 1-day or 2-day option, you will have more than 2 hours to explore Machu Picchu with our guide and group.

Although much of the journey involves transportation, the experience is absolutely worthwhile, and our team will make sure you enjoy every moment of the trip.

Please note that Machu Picchu tickets are regulated by the Peruvian government and the Ministry of Culture, with limited availability worldwide. We guarantee online tickets for reservations made well in advance. However, bookings made less than 2–3 months before travel may require a 2-day tour in order to request physical tickets in person in Aguas Calientes.

We will always do our best to help you visit Machu Picchu, especially if you are flexible with your schedule for last-minute reservations.
