Many visitors to Peru opt to hike to the UNESCO World Heritage Site, but if you prefer to experience the beautiful ancient sacred city of the Incas without several days of trekking, then our 2-day Machu Picchu by train tour is for you! Let us plan every detail of this exciting adventure so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy a spectacular journey through the Andean foothills following the Urubamba River, leading you into the cloud forest to arrive at the small town of Aguas Calientes.
During your trip in train to Machu Picchu, you’ll not explore South America’s most spectacular archaeological monument, the Historic Sanctuary of Machu Picchu, but you will also travel on one of the most beautiful railways on the planet and enjoy the gorgeous Andean scenery that passes you throughout the journey and have free time to explore Aguas Calientes, soak in the hot springs or browse the stores for souvenirs.
