No Permit, No Sun Gate: What That Means

This route does not walk the Inca Trail, so it needs no Inca Trail permit. That is why its dates stay open weeks ahead when the classic trail is sold out for months, and why it costs less. The trade-off is the arrival: you reach Machu Picchu by bus or on foot from Aguas Calientes, not through the Sun Gate.

Machu Picchu ticket
Still timed and still sold by name; the operator books it with your passport details.
Book ahead
Weeks rather than months, except around Christmas and in July.
February
Unlike the Inca Trail, these routes run in February.
Altitude
Salkantay goes higher than the Inca Trail; the jungle route starts high by road and drops fast.
