Il programma nel dettaglio

This category of train has 42-person coaches come complete with spacious leather seats for maximum enjoyment. All seats feature individual dining tables and panoramic windows to enjoy the awesome scenery on the route. Our carriages are also equipped with air-conditioning, anti-impact and UV protected glazing. Along the journey, we offer to the passengers a tasty selection of sweet and savoury snacks, fruits and a variety of cold and warm beverages.



Upon arrival to Machu Picchu town you will be contacted by our representative who will escort you to take the bus to the ""Lost City of the Incas"" which was discovered by American explorer Hiram Bingham in 1911 (25-minute motor-coach ride). Located on the left bank of the Vilcanota river lies the wonderful old city of Machu Picchu, which in quechua means "Old Mountain".



According to research, Machu Picchu would have been one of the vacation residences of Pachacutec, the first Inca emperor between 1438 and 1470. However, some of its finest buildings and the evident ceremonial purpose of the main access road to the village, prove that it was used as a religious shrine.



Machu Picchu is considered both a masterpiece of architecture and engineering because of its unique architectural and landscaping features. Prominent constructions among its buildings are the Main Square, the Royal Quarters, the Temple of the Three Windows, the Circular Towers, the Sacred Sun Dial and the Burial Grounds, among others of singular architecture and importance.



Your guide will narrate and explain all about this splendid citadel, which is a truly amazing experience. According to the train departure time, you can enjoy a delicious lunch before or after the start of the tour. Return by train to Ollanta Station and upon arrival you will be transferred to your hotel in the Sacred Valley.
