Mapped, ranked and fact-checked." url: https://wimup.com/city/cusco type: City guide updated: 2026-10-18 publisher: Wimup (https://wimup.com) --- # Top 10 Things To Do in Cusco Cusco, Peru · South America · By Wimup Editorial, 15 min read Cusco was the capital of Tawantinsuyu, and it has never stopped being a capital of something. The Spanish built their churches directly on top of the temples, which is why almost every colonial wall in the centre stands on Inca masonry that outlasted it. Come for Machu Picchu; the city is the better half. ## Quick answer Give the first day to the centre and to the altitude: the Plaza de Armas, the cathedral, the Inca wall on Hatunrumiyoc, then the climb into San Blas and nothing more strenuous. Day two goes up to Sacsayhuamán and back down past Q'enqo, with Qorikancha in the afternoon. Keep day three for the Sacred Valley and day four for Machu Picchu, whose tickets come from the Ministry of Culture and sell out. ## Quick facts - **Best months:** May · Jun · Jul · Aug - **Ideal length:** 4 days - **Budget per day:** $40–85 - **Language:** Spanish · Quechua - **Getting around:** On foot, taxis & colectivos - **Tourism board:** [Official site](https://www.peru.travel/en?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) ## The 10 best things to do in Cusco ### 1. Sacsayhuamán Inca site · Above the city, 2 km north of the Plaza de Armas Three tiers of zigzag walls above the city, built from limestone blocks that run past a hundred tonnes and fitted without mortar so tightly the joints still refuse a blade. What survives is a fraction: the Spanish quarried it for the colonial city, taking the smaller stones and leaving what nobody could move. - **Time:** 2 hours - **Cost:** Boleto Turístico - **Best at:** Late afternoon - **Tip:** Walk down rather than up. Take a taxi to the gate, then follow the road past Q’enqo and come back into town through San Cristóbal.

Qorikancha and the Santo Domingo convent Temple · Plazoleta Santo Domingo 260, Cusco The Temple of the Sun was the richest building in the Inca empire, its walls sheeted in gold the Spanish stripped within months. The Dominicans began their convent on the foundations in 1538. The 1950 earthquake made the argument: the colonial fabric cracked and the Inca masonry did not move. - **Time:** 1.5 hours - **Cost:** Ticketed - **Best at:** Morning - **Tip:** The temple is its own ticket. The site museum under the garden is a different entrance and is covered by the Boleto Turístico, so do not pay twice. ### 3. Cusco Cathedral Church · Plaza de Armas, Cusco The cathedral went up on the palace of Inca Wiracocha, using stone carted down from Sacsayhuamán, and took a century to finish. Two things earn the ticket: the Señor de los Temblores, the blackened Christ credited with stopping the 1650 earthquake, and Marcos Zapata's 1753 Last Supper, in which the dish on the table is a guinea pig. - **Time:** 1.5 hours - **Cost:** Ticketed - **Best at:** Late morning - **Tip:** The religious circuit ticket also covers San Blas church and the Museo de Arte Religioso. Buy it once and spread the three across two days. ### 4. Museo de Arte Precolombino Museum · Plazoleta Nazarenas 231, Cusco Opened in 2003 in the Casa Cabrera, MAP shows around 450 pieces from the Larco collection and hangs them as art rather than archaeology: dark rooms, single objects lit alone, wall texts quoting writers instead of excavation reports. The best single hour of context in the city, with a good restaurant in the courtyard. - **Time:** 1.5 hours - **Cost:** Ticketed - **Best at:** Afternoon - **Tip:** Do this before the Sacred Valley, not after. The chronology on the walls is what makes the sites legible. Links: [Website](https://mapcusco.pe/en/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) ### 5. Barrio de San Blas Neighbourhood · San Blas, Cusco The artisans' quarter climbs the hill straight out of the centre, steeply enough at this altitude to be a morning rather than a detour. Workshops sit in courtyards off lanes too narrow for cars. The adobe church at the top has a pulpit carved from a single cedar trunk, among the finest woodwork in the Americas. - **Time:** Half a day - **Cost:** Free - **Best at:** Morning - **Tip:** Climb the Cuesta de San Blas early, before the groups and while the light is still on the tiled roofs opposite. ### 6. Mercado Central de San Pedro Market · Calle Túpac Amaru, Cusco The covered market is where the city buys its food and where you should buy your lunch. The juice row comes first, stacked with fruit most visitors cannot name, and the counters behind serve caldo de gallina and a set menu for a few soles. Loud, unstaged, and the fastest way to understand what Cusco eats. - **Time:** 1 hour - **Cost:** Free to enter - **Best at:** Mid-morning - **Tip:** Juice stalls first, soup counters second. Carry small notes and keep your bag in front of you in the aisles. ### 7. Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús Church · Plaza de Armas, Cusco The Jesuits built on the palace of Huayna Capac and rebuilt after the 1650 earthquake, finishing in 1668. The facade was so obviously grander than the cathedral opposite that the argument reached Rome. The Jesuits won: this is the church people photograph. The choir balcony gives you the plaza from above. - **Time:** 45 minutes - **Cost:** Ticketed - **Best at:** Late afternoon - **Tip:** Go up to the choir balcony. Most visitors stop at the nave and miss the one view the ticket is really buying. ### 8. Museo Machupicchu Casa Concha Museum · Santa Catalina Ancha 320, Cusco Hiram Bingham shipped thousands of objects from Machu Picchu to Yale in 1912, and Peru spent most of a century asking for them back. What is on the shelves is deliberately unspectacular: cooking pots, bronze pins, bones. That is what makes it useful, because it turns a famous silhouette into a place where people worked. - **Time:** 1.5 hours - **Cost:** Ticketed - **Best at:** Before Machu Picchu - **Tip:** Time this for the day before your train. Nothing else in Cusco prepares you for the site as well. Links: [Website](https://museomachupicchu.com/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) ### 9. Centro de Textiles Tradicionales del Cusco Craft · Av. El Sol 603, Cusco A non-profit founded in 1996 by Andean weavers, working with ten highland communities to keep techniques alive that were within a generation of being lost. Weavers work in the shop, so you can watch a piece being made before you buy one. Prices are above the plaza stalls, because the weaver is named and paid. - **Time:** 1 hour - **Cost:** Free to enter - **Best at:** Afternoon - **Tip:** Ask which community a piece comes from. Every label answers it, and the answer is the difference between a souvenir and a textile. Links: [Website](https://www.textilescusco.org/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) ### 10. Hatunrumiyoc and the twelve-angled stone Inca wall · Calle Hatunrumiyoc, Cusco The street name means great stone, and the wall on its northern side is the surviving flank of the palace of Inca Roca. One block has been cut with twelve angles to meet its neighbours exactly. The stone is worth two minutes; the wall is worth ten, because the joints away from the famous block are just as fine. - **Time:** 20 minutes - **Cost:** Free - **Best at:** Early morning - **Tip:** Come before nine. By mid-morning there is a queue to photograph one rock and a man in Inca costume charging for the picture. ## Best restaurants and bars in Cusco Eight rooms, from Gastón Acurio’s regional kitchen to a rooftop bar over San Blas. 1. **Chicha por Gastón Acurio** (Regional Peruvian · Plaza Regocijo 261 · Centro): Acurio's Cusco room, cooking the region's own produce (river trout, alpaca, Andean grains) with the technique his group is known for. On the Plaza Regocijo. [Website](https://chicha.com.pe/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) 2. **Cicciolina** (Mediterranean and Andean · Calle Triunfo · Centro): Mediterranean cooking with Andean ingredients, at the tapas bar as you come in or the dining room behind. The oldest of the modern Cusco restaurants. [Website](https://www.cicciolinacuzco.com/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) 3. **MAP Café** (Peruvian · Plazoleta Nazarenas 231 · Nazarenas): A glass box in the courtyard of the Museo de Arte Precolombino, with a short menu of alpaca, trout and Andean tubers. The kitchen does not coast on it. 4. **Limbus Restobar** (Rooftop bar · Pasñapakana 133 · San Blas): The view is the reason: a terrace at the top of San Blas with the whole basin below, which means you climb for your drink. Book at sunset. [Website](https://limbusrestobar.com/en/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) 5. **Museo del Pisco** (Pisco bar · Santa Catalina Ancha 398 · Centro): A pisco bar that takes the spirit seriously: flights by grape, tastings and classes, and cocktails built on them rather than imported spirits. [Website](https://museodelpisco.org/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) 6. **Green Point** (Plant-based · Carmen Bajo 235 · San Blas): Plant-based Peruvian cooking in San Blas, including vegan versions of the dishes the rest of the city grills. The set lunch is one of the better value meals in Cusco. [Website](https://greenpointcusco.com/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) 7. **Pachapapa** (Cusqueñan grill · Plazoleta San Blas · San Blas): A courtyard grill opposite the San Blas church, cooking Cusqueñan classics over wood. This is where people book to try cuy al horno, ordered ahead. 8. **Uchu Peruvian Steakhouse** (Grill · Calle Palacio · Centro): Alpaca, beef and fish brought to the table on volcanic stone hot enough to finish the cooking in front of you. The sauces beat the format. ## Best Inca sites around Cusco Five sites on the Boleto Turístico, four of them within an hour of the plaza. 1. **Q’enqo** (Ritual site · 4 km from the centre · Above Cusco): A limestone outcrop carved into channels, steps and an underground chamber with an altar cut from the rock. It sits on the road down from Sacsayhuamán. 2. **Puka Pukara** (Checkpoint · Chinchero road · Above Cusco): Red stone walls on the Chinchero road, read as a control point and staging post rather than a fort. Best combined with Tambomachay nearby. 3. **Tambomachay** (Water shrine · 8 km from the centre · Chinchero road): A three-tiered spring shrine where the water still runs through the original Inca channels and falls at the same rate from both spouts. The engineering is the exhibit. 4. **Tipón** (Water engineering · South Valley, 25 km · South Valley): Terraces and stone canals in the South Valley that still carry a spring through a full irrigation system. The clearest demonstration of Inca hydraulics near the city. 5. **Pikillacta** (Wari city · South Valley, 30 km · South Valley): Not Inca at all: a Wari city of gridded compounds and long straight streets, built centuries before Cusco became a capital. The fastest correction to that idea. ## Best museums in Cusco Six, and four of them are covered by tickets you have already bought. 1. **Museo Inka** (Archaeology · Cuesta del Almirante · Centro): The university's archaeological museum, in the seventeenth-century Casa del Almirante. Its collection of keros, the carved drinking vessels, is the largest anywhere. [Website](https://museoinka.unsaac.edu.pe/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) 2. **Museo Histórico Regional** (Regional history · Casa Garcilaso · Centro): In the Casa Garcilaso, the family home of the chronicler Inca Garcilaso de la Vega, running from pre-ceramic tools to the republic. 3. **Museo de Sitio del Qorikancha** (Site museum · Av. El Sol · Centro): Five rooms under the garden below the temple, holding pre-Inca, Inca and colonial material from the 1990s excavations. On the Boleto Turístico. 4. **Museo de Arte Religioso** (Colonial painting · Hatunrumiyoc · Centro): Cusco School painting in the Archbishop's Palace, the building standing on the Inca wall everyone photographs. Covered by the religious circuit ticket. 5. **Museo Municipal de Arte Contemporáneo** (Contemporary art · Plaza Regocijo · Centro): Contemporary work by Cusqueñan artists in the town hall on the Plaza Regocijo. A reminder that the city did not stop making art in 1750. 6. **ChocoMuseo** (Cacao · Calle Garcilaso · Centro): Cacao from bean to bar, with workshops where you roast and grind your own. Free to walk through, and the obvious hour with children. ## Best multi-day treks from Cusco Five routes, from the permitted classic to a six-day circuit of a 6,384 m apu. 1. **Camino Inca, the classic Inca Trail** (4 days · 42 km · Km 82 to Machu Picchu · Sacred Valley): Four days from Km 82 to the Sun Gate, and the only route that arrives at Machu Picchu on foot. Permits are capped daily, sold months ahead, and closed each February. [Website](https://www.gob.pe/cultura?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) 2. **Salkantay** (5 days · Mollepata to Aguas Calientes · Cordillera Vilcabamba): The route people take when the Inca Trail permits have gone, and no consolation prize: a 4,630 m pass, then a long descent into cloud forest and coffee country. 3. **Lares** (3 days · weaving villages · Sacred Valley): Lower, warmer and far less trafficked, through Quechua weaving villages and past hot springs. Choose it if the people interest you more than the passes. 4. **Choquequirao** (4 to 5 days · Cachora trailhead · Apurímac): Machu Picchu's sister site, still reachable only on foot and only partly cleared, so the terraces are largely yours. Four to five days from the Cachora trailhead. 5. **Ausangate** (5 to 6 days · above 4,500 m · Cordillera Vilcanota): A circuit of the 6,384 m apu south-east of the city, almost entirely above 4,500 m, past glacial lakes and herding settlements. The highest and coldest of the five. ## Best markets in Cusco Four markets, only one of which is aimed at you. 1. **Mercado de San Blas** (Produce and lunch counters · Plazoleta San Blas · San Blas): The neighbourhood market halfway up the hill: produce, bread, and counters doing set lunches for a few soles. Crossed in five minutes. 2. **Mercado de Wanchaq** (Everyday market · Wanchaq · Wanchaq): Where Cusco does its weekly shop, east of the centre and free of souvenir stalls. Go for the fruit you cannot identify and the cheese from the high pastures. 3. **Centro Artesanal Cusco** (Crafts · Av. El Sol, southern end · Centro): Several hundred craft stalls under one roof at the bottom of Avenida El Sol, selling the same alpaca and textiles as the plaza at lower prices. 4. **Mercado de Vinocanchón** (Produce · San Jerónimo · San Jerónimo): The biggest produce market in the region, twenty minutes east in San Jerónimo, where the valley's growers sell to the city. Busiest in the morning. ## Best neighborhoods in Cusco Five districts, and the trade is always altitude against noise. 1. **Centro Histórico** (Plaza de Armas and the grid around it · Centro): The Plaza de Armas and the grid around it, where Inca walls carry colonial arcades and almost everything here is fifteen minutes on foot. Also the loudest place to sleep. 2. **San Blas** (Artisans, courtyards and the viewpoints · San Blas): Steep lanes, workshops and the best small hotels, ten minutes above the plaza and quieter for it. Every arrival is a climb at 3,400 m. 3. **San Cristóbal** (The terrace on the road to Sacsayhuamán · San Cristóbal): The terrace above the plaza on the way up to Sacsayhuamán, with the Colcampata wall and the first proper view of the roofs. A hard walk home. 4. **Santiago** (West of the centre, around Belén · Santiago): Working Cusco west of the centre, around the Belén market and the Almudena cemetery. Prices and menus are set for people who live here. 5. **Wanchaq** (Flat, modern, and priced for locals · Wanchaq): The modern district south-east of the old town: flat streets, the everyday market, and restaurants not priced for the plaza. Twenty minutes on foot. ## Best day trips from Cusco Six days out, from the citadel itself to a 5,036 m ridge. 1. **Machu Picchu** (1 day · train from Ollantaytambo · Urubamba): A long day: train from Ollantaytambo, then the shuttle up from Aguas Calientes. Entry runs on timed circuits with a daily cap and tickets sell out well ahead. [Website](https://tuboleto.cultura.pe/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) 2. **Pisac** (1 day · 33 km · ruins and market · Sacred Valley): Terraces stacked up the ridge above the town, with tombs cut into the cliff opposite and a craft market below. Best walked downhill from the top gate. 3. **Ollantaytambo** (1 day · 60 km · Sacred Valley · Sacred Valley): The only Inca town still lived in on its original grid, with water running in the street channels under a temple hill of unfinished stonework. 4. **Maras and Moray** (1 day · 50 km · salt pans and terraces · Sacred Valley): Thousands of salt pans worked by the same families since before the Inca, and half an hour away the concentric terraces of Moray, each ring a microclimate. 5. **Humantay Lake** (1 day · 4,200 m · steep hour on foot · Cordillera Vilcabamba): A pre-dawn start, three hours to Soraypampa, then a steep climb to a glacial lake at around 4,200 m. Not for your second day in Peru. 6. **Vinicunca, Rainbow Mountain** (1 day · 5,036 m · Cordillera Vilcanota): The striped ridge at 5,036 m. The colours are real, mineral layers exposed by retreating ice, and so is the altitude. Clearest between May and September. ## Festivals & annual events in Cusco (2026) - **Carnaval** (February): Water, foam and paint across the Plaza de Armas for several Sundays, peaking before Lent. No bag you own is safe. - **Señor de los Temblores** (March or April): The blackened Christ leaves the cathedral on Holy Monday under a shower of red ñucchu flowers. The oldest procession here. - **Qoyllur Rit’i** (May or June): A pilgrimage of tens of thousands to the Sinakara sanctuary above 4,600 m, before Corpus Christi. Cold and genuinely religious. - **Corpus Christi** (May or June): Fifteen saints and virgins are carried into the cathedral and paraded around the plaza. The dish of the day is chiriuchu. - **Inti Raymi** (24 June): The festival of the sun, staged in three acts at Qorikancha, the plaza and Sacsayhuamán. The busiest day of the Cusco year. - **Virgen del Carmen, Paucartambo** (Mid-July): Four days of masked dance in a small town four hours east, one of the most striking festivals in the Andes. Beds are scarce. - **Warachikuy** (September): A reconstruction of the Inca coming-of-age rite, staged at Sacsayhuamán by local schools. Free to watch from the slope. - **Santurantikuy** (24 December): One of the largest craft fairs in the Americas fills the plaza on Christmas Eve, selling nativity figures until midnight mass. ## Must-try dishes in Cusco, Peru - **Chiriuchu**: The dish of Corpus Christi and only eaten then: cold cuy, chicken, sausage, cheese, seaweed and roe. - **Cuy al horno**: Roast guinea pig, the Andean festival meat, served whole and eaten with the hands. Order it the night before. - **Adobo cusqueño**: Pork shoulder marinated overnight in chicha de jora, stewed slowly and eaten for breakfast on Sunday. - **Chicharrón de Saylla**: Pork boiled in its own fat until it crisps, with mint, mote and fried potato. Saylla is the town for it. - **Kapchi de setas**: Wild mushrooms picked after the first rains, cooked with broad beans, milk, cheese and potato. - **Choclo con queso**: A cob of giant white Cusco maize with a slab of fresh cheese. The kernels are the size of a thumbnail. - **Trucha a la parrilla**: Grilled trout from the highland lakes and the Urubamba, usually with mote and salad. The safest valley order. - **Chicha de jora**: Fermented maize beer, sold from picanterías flying a red flag. Cloudy, slightly sour and low in alcohol. ## Cusco transport & airports - **Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport** (CUZ): The airport sits inside the city, about 5 km from the Plaza de Armas. It has no night operations, which is why almost every Lima flight leaves in the morning. [Website](https://www.corpac.gob.pe/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - **Trains to Machu Picchu** (Rail): PeruRail and Inca Rail both run the line down the Urubamba to Aguas Calientes. Most departures leave from Ollantaytambo. Book ahead between May and September. [PeruRail](https://www.perurail.com/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) · [Inca Rail](https://incarail.com/en/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - **Colectivos and regional buses** (Road): Shared colectivos are how the Sacred Valley travels: Urubamba and Ollantaytambo from Calle Pavitos, Pisac from Puputi, going when full rather than to a timetable. - **On foot and by taxi** (City): The historic centre is walkable and almost entirely cobbled, and every walk is uphill in one direction. Taxis are unmetered, so agree the fare before you get in. ## Cusco at a glance - **Country:** Peru - **Region:** Cusco Province · Cusco Department - **Altitude:** 3,399 m above sea level - **Population:** 428,450 in the city (2017 census, INEI) - **UNESCO:** City of Cuzco, inscribed 1983 - **Language:** Spanish · Quechua - **Currency:** Peruvian sol (PEN) - **Time zone:** UTC-5, no daylight saving - **Calling code:** +51 84 - **Airport:** CUZ - **Power:** 220V · Type A & C - **Emergency:** 105 police · 116 fire · 106 ambulance ## Interesting facts - Qosqo means navel in Quechua. The Inca called their empire Tawantinsuyu, the four parts together. - The earthquake of 21 May 1950 destroyed much of the colonial city and left the Inca walls beneath it standing. - UNESCO inscribed the City of Cuzco in 1983, citing both the Inca capital and the baroque city built on top of it. - Sacsayhuamán is a fraction of its original size because the Spanish quarried it. They took what they could move. - At 3,399 m, altitude is the most common complaint here: give the first day to short walks and drink more water than you want to. ## Watch [Cusco Travel Guide](https://wimup.com/watch/cusco.md), 8:14 ## Cusco travel FAQ ### How many days do you need in Cusco? Four is the working minimum: one acclimatising and seeing the centre on foot, one for Sacsayhuamán and a museum, one for the Sacred Valley, one for Machu Picchu. Add a fifth for Rainbow Mountain or Humantay, both long days at altitude that should not follow each other. ### When is the best time to visit Cusco? May to September, the dry season, with June to August the most reliable and the busiest. June is heaviest because of Inti Raymi on the 24th. The rains run December to March, when the ruins are green and empty but afternoons wash out. The Inca Trail closes every February. ### How bad is the altitude in Cusco? The city sits at 3,399 m, high enough that most arrivals feel it: headache, breathlessness on stairs, poor sleep for a night. Do nothing strenuous on day one, drink more water than usual, go easy on alcohol. If you can, sleep the first night in the Sacred Valley at 2,800 m. ### Do you need the Boleto Turístico? Yes, if you plan to see the ruins above the city or the Sacred Valley sites. The full ticket covers 16 sites in three circuits and is valid for 10 days. COSITUC sells it in person rather than online. It does not cover Machu Picchu, Qorikancha or the cathedral, which are all separate. ### How do you get from Cusco to Machu Picchu? By train, in one long day or with a night in Aguas Calientes. PeruRail and Inca Rail both run the line, most departures leave from Ollantaytambo, and both sell bimodal tickets starting with a coach from Cusco. Entry is by timed circuit with a daily cap, so buy that first. ## Nearby guides - [Arequipa](https://wimup.com/city/arequipa.md): Peru · 10 picks - [La Paz](https://wimup.com/city/la-paz.md): Bolivia · 10 picks - [Lima](https://wimup.com/city/lima.md): Peru · 10 picks - [All of South America →](https://wimup.com/south-america): 39 cities Part of the [Peru guide](https://wimup.com/country/peru.md) · [South America](https://wimup.com/south-america.md) ## Sources - [Cusco tourism board](https://www.peru.travel/en?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Sacsayhuamán (official site)](https://cosituc.gob.pe/sacsayhuaman/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Museo de Arte Precolombino (official site)](https://mapcusco.pe/en/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Museo Machupicchu Casa Concha (official site)](https://museomachupicchu.com/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Centro de Textiles Tradicionales del Cusco (official site)](https://www.textilescusco.org/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Chicha por Gastón Acurio (official site)](https://chicha.com.pe/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Cicciolina (official site)](https://www.cicciolinacuzco.com/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Limbus Restobar (official site)](https://limbusrestobar.com/en/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Museo del Pisco (official site)](https://museodelpisco.org/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Green Point (official site)](https://greenpointcusco.com/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Museo Inka (official site)](https://museoinka.unsaac.edu.pe/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Camino Inca, the classic Inca Trail (official site)](https://www.gob.pe/cultura?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Machu Picchu (official site)](https://tuboleto.cultura.pe/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport (official site)](https://www.corpac.gob.pe/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Trains to Machu Picchu: PeruRail](https://www.perurail.com/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - [Trains to Machu Picchu: Inca Rail](https://incarail.com/en/?utm_source=wimup.com&utm_medium=referral) - Rankings are Wimup editorial picks.
