Have you ever dreamed of traveling through the Peruvian Andes on a train modeled on the Pullman cars of the 1920s? The Hiram Bingham train not only makes this possible, it turns a magical journey into an unforgettable experience, with personalized service that takes care of every last detail on your trip.
Travel on the exclusive and luxurious Hiram Bingham train and enjoy the elegant dining car, the bar car, and the observatory, where you can take in the unmatched scenery in the open air while sipping on a traditional Peruvian cocktail and listening to live local music.
Start your experience off with a welcome cocktail. Once on board, the maître will invite you to a gourmet lunch. The return trip includes a fine dining experience at dinner. In both cases, you can accompany your meals with beverages (non-premium) and an excellent wine selection.
To the beat of the Peruvian cajón and tambourines, live traditional Peruvian and international music will set the tone throughout the trip for an unforgettable trip to the Machu Picchu citadel.
Your fare includes a bus ticket from the station to Machu Picchu and the ticket to enter the citadel with a tour guide for no more than 14 people (in English or Spanish). It also includes an Cocktail in the mountains at Sanctuary Lodge, the return bus journey to the station and access to the station’s VIP Lounge.
