No More Tickets for Machu Picchu Online? Here’s What You Can Do!If you’re feeling stuck because of a “Sold Out” message on the official website, read on—there might be 1,000 fresh opportunities waiting for you just around the corner.
Is there a trek with snow-capped mountain views that also goes to Machu Picchu? If I’ve booked a tour, do I still need to get the Machu Picchu entry and train tickets myself?
If Summer could choose all over again, she probably wouldn’t go for the classic 4-day Inca Trail — she’d pick the Inca Jungle Trail instead!
Price comparison:
4-day Classic Inca Trail > 2-day Short Inca Trail > Inca Jungle Trail
Back then, Summer was a bit too innocent — thinking that the most expensive option had to be the best.
But here’s the catch: the Inca Trail isn’t just pricey — it also has strict daily permit limits (don’t ask how Summer learned that the hard way 🙃).
The result? It ended up being expensive on top of expensive.
There’s no such thing as “the most expensive” — only “even more expensive”!
Wondering what other options there are for trekking to Machu Picchu?
No worries — that’s coming up next!
