Machu Picchu: Entry Ticket

Aguas Calientes

Machu Picchu

With these Machu Picchu tickets, the idea of scaling Peru's mountain marvel is no longer confined to daydreams and Instagram scrolling. Before you know it, you can be breathing in fresh Andean air and admiring the world-famous Inca citadel live. Your Machu Picchu entrance ticket provides a once-in-a-lifetime adventure through Inca history – an unforgettable visit to the heart of the Andes. Walk within the walls to marvel at the ruins of the city, which was hastily abandoned in the 16th century when those dastardly Spaniards sidled up in Peru, bringing with them pointy beards and a passion for pillaging. You'll also see what would have been vital strategic locations within the city. Intipunku served as a principal entrance into Machu Picchu, while the Inca Bridges provided a secret way in and out for the army, and the elites who once resided there. This is your ticket to a significant slice of South American history... and then some.
