Important Information about Machu Picchu:
The Peruvian Ministry of Culture has updated the visiting rules for Machu Picchu, dividing entrance hours into two sessions:
AM Entrance: 6:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
PM Entrance: 11:00 a.m. – 5:30 p.m.
Visitors must leave the site within their assigned time slot and are not allowed re-entry once they exit. Those who fail to comply will be escorted out by the appropriate authorities.
For the full-day tour, the visiting time begins when the check-in at Machu Picchu is completed. For example, if entry is at 9:00 a.m., you may remain in the park until 1:00 p.m., which allows ample time to explore this amazing site.
