PeruRail runs the main rail service to Machu Picchu, and Peruways books across the full line-up. The Cusco–Aguas Calientes route is one of the shorter but most scenic Andean rail trips, cutting from highland plateau down through the Urubamba gorge.

Peruways handles the Cusco end — hotel pickup, transfer to Poroy or Ollantaytambo station — then the rail leg itself. The Vistadome has panoramic windows and skylights for the Sacred Valley views. The Belmond Hiram Bingham is the full dining-car service: 1920s Pullman carriages, four-course meals, live Peruvian music, open bar.

At Machu Picchu, Peruways’ site guides have formal backgrounds in Andean archaeology, so you get the solstice context at the Intihuatana and the construction detail at the Temple of the Sun rather than photo-op commentary.
