Why We’re Your Best Option
Personalized Expert Advice — We don’t just sell tickets. We explain:
- Which Machu Picchu circuit matches what you want to see
- Which time slot fits your plan (arriving by train? finishing a trek?)
- Which train service to choose for budget & preferences
- Which sites each Tourist Ticket includes
- How to optimize your time in Cusco strategically
Simplified Purchase — Government sites can be slow, complex, or crash. We:
- Process your purchase fast and efficiently
- Send clear vouchers and confirmations
- Explain step by step what to do on visit day
- Answer all your questions before, during, and after
Real-Time Availability — Machu Picchu has limited daily slots. Huayna Picchu sells out months ahead. We show updated availability and suggest smart alternatives if your dates are full.
Perfect Coordination — As part of the corporate group, we sync your tickets with the rest of your trip:
- If you hike the Inca Trail with Inca Trail Explorers, we time your Machu Picchu entry for the exact arrival day
- If your flight is delayed and you miss the train, we help adjust times (when possible)
- If your Salkantay Horizon trek finishes later, we adjust your train time
Changes & Support — Within strict official policies, we help with:
- Train date changes (subject to space & penalties)
- Machu Picchu ticket changes (if space and within deadlines)
- Problem-solving (misspelled name, wrong document, etc.)
Constantly Updated Information — Machu Picchu rules change often: new circuits, adjusted schedules, updated restrictions. We stay current and tell you exactly what applies on your dates.
Transparent Pricing
- Official ticket/train price
- Clearly stated service fee
- No hidden charges
