The Cusco-to-Machu Picchu train is a highlight of any Peru trip, and the ride itself is reason enough to take the train rather than fly in via the Hidroelectrica route.
You start in Cusco, roll through the Sacred Valley, and watch terraced farmland, cliffs, and the Urubamba River move past the window. The line gradually drops out of the dry Andes into subtropical cloud forest as you near Machu Picchu.
Service tiers run from standard Expedition seats to premium cars with panoramic windows and onboard dining. All are comfortable; the differences are in food, drinks, and the amount of glass.
Book with Peruways for schedules, ticket options, and tips. They know which service suits which traveler and will match the booking to the trip you’re actually doing.
Travel with Peruways and the Cusco-Machu Picchu run is the easy, scenic part of the trip.
