Info: Tourist Ticket
We do not include tickets to the Inca ruins because we recommend purchasing the General Tourist Ticket, which is valid for 10 days and covers entry to many museums in Cusco and most archaeological sites in Cusco and the Sacred Valley. A Student Tourist Ticket costs S/ 70.00 soles for students with a valid ISIC card and for Peruvian citizens in general; it is also valid for 10 days.
This is the best option if you want to visit the archaeological complexes in Cusco and the Sacred Valley during your stay. If you do not need the General Tourist Ticket, you have the option to buy the "Partial Tourist Ticket," which costs S/ 70.00 and is valid for a specific circuit of ruins for one day only.
