How to Hire a Guide for Machu Picchu

Hiring a guide for Machu Picchu can completely transform your visit. While the site is impressive on its own, understanding its history, symbolism, and hidden details requires expert knowledge. With regulated circuits and limited visiting time, a professional guide helps you make the most of every moment inside the citadel.

Types of Machu Picchu Entrance Tickets

When purchasing a Machu Picchu entrance ticket, it is essential to choose the correct circuit, as each one offers a different experience within the archaeological site. Making the right choice helps avoid frustration and ensures you get the most out of your visit.

Circuit 1 – Panoramic Circuit

This circuit is designed to offer wide, panoramic views of the Inca City of Machu Picchu and its surrounding sacred mountains, which were deeply connected to Andean deities. Circuit 1 leads visitors to the highest areas of Machu Picchu through narrow paths and scenic viewpoints.

It includes four different routes within the same circuit, each offering a unique perspective of the citadel. While each route requires a different level of physical effort, all of them reward visitors with extraordinary landscapes, impressive viewpoints beyond the classic photo, and a deep appreciation of Inca architecture and its harmony with nature.

Routes within Circuit 1

Route 1-A: Machu Picchu Mountain Route
Route 1-B: Upper Terrace Route
Route 1-C: Intipunku (Sun Gate) Route (available only during high season)
Route 1-D: Inca Bridge Route (available only during high season)

Circuit 2 – Classic Circuit

Circuit 2 combines access to the mid-level agricultural terraces with a complete visit to the urban area of the Inca City of Machu Picchu. This is the most comprehensive circuit and the one most recommended for first-time visitors.

Visitors walk through structures that served as residences, ceremonial spaces, and astronomical observation points. Circuit 2 includes two internal routes, both requiring a moderate level of physical effort and offering the classic Machu Picchu experience.

Routes within Circuit 2

Route 2-A: Classic Designed Route
Route 2-B: Lower Terrace Route

¿Why chosse us?

I totally recommend them. They’re an incredible team. Our guide, Sara, is a professional in every sense of the word and a delightful person. They helped us get our tickets to Machu Picchu. Their kindness and understanding made us feel right at home. Thank you all. We came from Bolivia planning the trip, and we were a little worried about getting tickets last minute, given the roadblocks in Cusco. They were always available 24 hours a day. Thank you for everything. Hugs from Bolivia. We wish you all the best.
