The Inca Trail by train with Peruways is the straightforward way to see the Peruvian Andes without a four-day trek. The ride itself is the trip.

Trains are modern, with panoramic windows and reasonable seats, and depart from Ollantaytambo and Cusco. The service suits trekkers, families, and solo travelers alike.

You arrive at Machu Picchu Pueblo (Aguas Calientes) and take the shuttle bus up to the citadel. Peruways’ guides work the site with you, so you leave knowing what you looked at.
