However as Machu Picchu becomes more and more of a popular destination it is important to try and make your arrangements as far in advance as you can.

IMPORTANT: Concern about overuse leading to erosion has led the Peruvian government to place a limit on the number of people who may hike this trail per season, and to sharply limit the companies that can provide guides. As a result, advance booking is mandatory.
A maximum of 500 people per day, including guides and porters, are permitted to begin the Trail every day. As a result, the high season books out very quickly.
NOTE: that the Trail is closed every February for cleaning.
