Time ago, one could visit the beautiful citadel without any restrictions; even if you wanted you could do it alone. Then the authorities asked us to have a guide on our visit. Later, from 2021 the authorities of Machu Picchu have ordered that the visit to the Inca city be carried out by strict routes for different reasons but the most important was to reduce the risks of the Covid 19 as well as protect and preserve the archaeological site. The passengers could visit just Machu Picchu or Machupicchu plus Huayna Picchu
