Cusco City Guide - Getting There By Air



Aeropuerto Alejandro Velasco Astete (CUZ)
Tel: (84) 222 611/01.

Situated 4km (2.5 miles) south of Cusco city centre, Aeropuerto Velasco Astete is a nucleus in the South American travel network and caters to thousands of travellers every week. Most flights arrive and depart in the morning as climatic conditions in the afternoon make taking off and landing harder.

Facilities at the airport include restaurants and cafés, car rental agencies, tour operators, travel agencies, ATMs, currency exchange and a good choice of shops, including duty-free.

The simplest way to reach the city centre is to take a taxi from outside the arrivals hall (journey time 5-10 minutes). Taxis do not have meters so fares must be fixed in advance. Alternatively pick up a collectivo bus from the airport car park. The airport is full of tour touts who should be avoided.
