Cusco BTC

As far as I know the Cusco Tourist Ticket (Boleto Turístico de Cuzco, BTC) can be bought in Cusco offices and at all sites it allows to visit. But I found comments that at any given site they have sold out one type of ticket and will not receive further supply until the afternoon or the following day. Since we will go directly from Cusco airport to Ollantaytambo, we hope to buy our BTC at Ollantaytambo site ticket office. Does this really happen?

Is there any direct bus from Cusco airport to Ollantaytambo, or we need to go to the city for bus or colectivo?.

Many thanks for any information.

You can buy the partial or full Boleto Turistico at any of the sites listed on the ticket. I haven't heard about tickets being sold out so I can't help with that.

For Cusco to Ollantaytambo you have to take a taxi to Calle Pavitos. Or just tell the driver you want the colectivo to Ollantaytambo and he will take you to the right spot.

We bought our Boleto Turistico at the entrance to the fortress at Ollantaytambo.

Thank you to both of you for taking the time to answer, we will buy the BTC at Ollantaytambo site.

Sonia, let me to take the opportunity to thank you for extensive and very informative last year's trip report. Very useful, I have used it several times.
