Children up to 9 years old no pay entrance tickets. Children from 10 to 17 years old can purchase the student ticket just by showing the Identity Document. Keep in mind that the tourist ticket is personal and non-transferable. So, our recommendation is that if you are going to be in Cusco for a long time, and you do not want to miss any place, you have to purchase the General Tourist Ticket, yes, the one that has access to 16 sites, since it will be much cheaper. On the other hand, if you purchase the tour with Inca Peru Travel, We can buy the ticket for you.
