Hiram Bingham, a Belmond Train

The Hiram Bingham, A Belmond Train, travels through the Peruvian Highlands from the Cusco region, across the Sacred Valley, and onward to the base of Machu Picchu. The journey can be booked one-way or round-trip and unfolds in a setting that recalls early 20th-century rail travel, with polished interiors, a dining car, lounge, and an open-air observation carriage. Multi-course meals are served onboard, accompanied by traditional music performances.

During the wet season (December to March), part of the journey may operate as a bi-modal service combining train and charter bus. Passage includes transport from Aguas Calientes to Machu Picchu, a group-basis guided visit of the ruins, afternoon tea at Belmond Sanctuary Lodge, and access to the VIP Lounge at Aguas Calientes station.
