Machu Picchu, the Incan citadel in the Andes Mountains, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a bucket-list destination for travelers worldwide. To protect the site, the Peruvian Government caps daily visitors. Knowing which Machu Picchu tickets are available and how many are issued makes planning easier.

Here’s a rundown of ticket availability for each Machu Picchu experience:
