How much do flights to Cusco cost?

Getting from Cusco airport to the city center

Cusco is served by Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport (CUZ), located just 5 km southeast of the historic city center. As the gateway to Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley, this airport handles significant tourist traffic year-round. Airport transfers to city center destinations are straightforward, with options including taxis, colectivos (shared minivans), private transfers, and ride-hailing services. Journey times are typically short but can vary due to Cusco's narrow colonial streets and altitude of 3,400 meters. Most travelers reach Plaza de Armas within 15 to 30 minutes depending on traffic and transport choice.

Notes:

  • Prices in PEN (Peruvian Sol); table created in 2025 and subject to change.
  • Cusco sits at 3,400 meters altitude. Take time to acclimatize and avoid rushing.
  • Official airport taxis have fixed rates displayed at the terminal exit.
  • Colectivos depart from outside the airport but may wait until full before leaving.
  • Uber is not widely available in Cusco; InDriver and Cabify are more common alternatives.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
