Hi all,
Does anyone know how far in advance to buy tickets? Will be there May 2018. I have heard the English version of the web site doesn't work too well. Any ideas are welcomed.

Meant Viator guides. Looks like entrance tickets and the peru rail 2018 is not available until January.
Thanks I guess I have to wait and try and make the site work then.

you don't have to buy so early. once you get to Cuzco you'll find a lot of tour shops around plaza de amas. they sell complete package from train ticket to bus ticket to entrance ticket, everything you need for the trip. It saves time and hassle, if you spend a few days in Cuzco you can buy the tickets on your first day of arrival to be sure you have all tickets ready when you leave for MP.

Thanks everyone. I'll try not to worry. Thinking of buying 2 different afternoon admissions.
