The MOST important thing you need to enter Machu Picchu is...✨ your PASSPORT! 🎟To purchase a ticket for Machu Picchu, FOREIGN ADULTS need to input a passport number. Before entering Machu Picchu, the authorities will ask for your ticket and the passport with which you made your reservation. ❗️It is required to have your tickets printed out and show your ORIGINAL identity document at the Machu Picchu entrance. Tickets are no longer sold on site. They must be purchased ahead of time online or through a travel agency. ⚠️ children under 8 are free and only need to show identification that certifies their age 🛑 Make sure you secure your passport upon entry. Our guide ensured we put ours away before moving forward. Do you recall another place where a passport was required for entry? Besides the airport of course 😆 *some museums and archeological sites in Cusco require passports to purchase tickets as well, but most accepted photos of the passports* _______________________________________ 💫 FOLLOW @kateswanderlens for more beautiful moments & travel tips 📌 SAVE for your visit to Peru . . . . . #traveltips #perutips #perutravel #travelperú #southamericatravel #machupicchuperu #machupicchutravel #machupicchumountain #seetheworldwithme #bucketlisttravel #worldofwanderlust #passionpassort #newsevenwondersoftheworld #worldwonders
