Essential Recommendations

I. Planning and Documentation

• Essential Planning: Ensure the purchase of all tickets (train, bus, Machu Picchu entrance) well in advance, as spots are limited, especially if you want the additional ticket for Huayna Picchu.

• Official Identification: Always carry your original passport or ID. It is an essential requirement for boarding the train and entering the archaeological site.

• Medical Coverage: It is highly recommended to purchase a travel insurance policy that covers medical emergencies, accidents, and possible trip cancellations.

II. Travel Kit and Clothing

• Small Backpack: Use a daypack, maximum 25 liters (6.6 gallons).

• Adaptable Clothing: Dress in layers, wearing comfortable and lightweight clothing for the 2 days. This allows you to adapt to the cold of the morning in Cusco and the heat of midday at Machu Picchu.

• Sun and Rain Protection: Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat or cap. A waterproof jacket or rain poncho is essential during the wet season.

• Provisions: Reusable water bottle, light snacks, and some cash (soles) for personal expenses.

III. Conduct and Regulations at the Citadel

• Punctuality: Be punctual at all times so you don’t miss scheduled train and bus times.

• Archaeological Respect: Follow the guide’s instructions, do not touch the stones, and stay on marked paths.

• Prohibited Items: Do not bring drones, large tripods, or large backpacks. The tour flow is one-way and you are not allowed to retrace your steps.
