Train Ride from Cusco to Machu Picchu, Peru
Visitors to Machu Picchu in Peru can get there one of two ways - by hiking for either four or seven days, or on a train that can be boarded at either Cusco or Ollantaytambo. I took Peru Rail's Vistadome, which provides large side windows and overhead skylights that give the best possible views of this incredible journey through the Sacred Valley and the cloud forest that is home to the ancient Inca ruins. The video shows the train and the services it provides, including the zig zag tracks that allow it to descend the steep grade into the river valley, where spectacled bears roam the banks and orchids carpet the trees. The price for the 3.5 hour, 57 mile trip was approximately $75 USD each way. To read more about my round-the-world travels, visit my blog,
Ride Day 52: Cusco, Peru to Machu Picchu with Belmond Hiram Bingham
Full Post: After spending a day touring Cusco, Peru and organizing my trip to Machu Pichu (which took some time), it was Machu Picchu Day!
I left my home at 7 am and rode to Poroy Station where I would embark on my journey to Machu Picchu with Belmond Hiram Bingham train and tour.
The ride was mostly through small towns and was a lot of fun, even though I had some weather on the journey.
Once on the train, you get amazing 5-star service and the train is gorgeous, you sweep slowly through valleys and towns. I also got to meet some interesting people along the journey, from all walks of life (mainly well to do) and had a great experience with my tour group of six people.
Belmond Hiram Bingham to Machu Picchu
I decided to splurge on this trip and go on the Belmond Hiram Bingham experience to Machu Picchu. This was a 5 Star Endeavour, and it met just about all my expectations. Firstly I met the train at Poroy Station and was entertained by some indigenous dancing and music and some light refreshments. I was also interviewed by one of the managers and given my information as to what my day would entail and my guide.
We then board this beautiful old train and get assigned a seat with a table. You can walk all through the train to the rear where more music is played with beer, champagne, and nibbles. The rear also has an observation deck where you can take photos/videos of your journey to Machu Picchu.
The train stops at Ollantaytambo Station for about 10 minutes along the way where you can buy souvenirs and food and drink. A Pretty little location.
On the train, you have a small selection of courses, each of them delicious. On the way th3-coursed a three-course meal and the same on return, drinks were also free.
The journey follows a river along the valley all the way through to Machu Picchu, quite stunning vistas are around every corner.
Once you arrive in Machu Picchu, you walk a little way to buses, and there you are taken a right up to the summit. You go through quite a steep climb, and the roads are dirt and mud, with amazing views.
Once you get to the summit, you skip the lines and are taken by a private tour guide (one guide per six people) and taken a tour that lasts around 3 hours.
The guide was fantastic, answering questions all along the way and giving you some insights about every element of the city. Machu Picchu is stunning and the work gone into restoration is admirable.
I left home at 7 am and arrived back at my apartment at 11 pm. Everything is catered for, no extra costs except for tipping your guide.
Total Cost $750 USD for Belmond Hiram Bingham and $20 USD Tip.
Machu Picchu, Peru
Machu Picchu is an Incan citadel set high in the Andes Mountains in Peru, above the Urubamba River valley. Built in the 15th century and later abandoned, it’s renowned for its sophisticated dry-stone walls that fuse huge blocks without the use of mortar, intriguing buildings that play on astronomical alignments and panoramic views. Its exact former use remains a mystery. From Wikipedia
Entrance prices for Adults to Machu Picchu are $70 and buses to Machu Picchu range from $20 USD to $90 USD

¿LA RUTA FÁCIL A LA MONTAÑA ARCOIRIS? ⛰️???????? | MPV en Cusco (Perú)
Video en colaboración con LC Perú #publicidad
¡Hola amigos! ????
Esta es la segunda vez que vamos a grabar a la montaña de colores :O , regresamos porque hace ya varios meses se empezó a comercializar una nueva ruta por Cusipata que es más corta y menos exigente. Así que decidimos volver para mostrarles cómo es esta ruta y cuánto cuesta :D . Gracias por ver nuestras locuras ♥
OJO: Como habrán visto en el video, nosotras tuvimos que ir a la montaña en una camioneta particular porque justo, en las fechas que fuimos, se generaron unos enfrentamientos entra las comunidades cercanas a la montaña y Dircetur lanzó un comunicado en el cuál se pedía a los turistas, por precaución, cancelen sus visitas a Vinicunca. Nosotras teníamos que ir si o si el día coordinado, por ello antes de ir averiguamos con información de primera mano de la misma comunidad el estado de la situación y sabíamos que no era peligroso ir ese día porque ya se habían solucionado los conflictos. Si no hubiese ocurrido esta situación particular hubiésemos tomado el transfer que toman todos los turistas para este tour.
Mejor temporada: Mayo - Septiembre

7 killed, at least 30 injured in Peru bus crash
(28 Nov 2019) Seven people have died and at least 30 injured after a bus accident in Peru on Wednesday.
The bus, which authorities say was travelling at 80 kilometres per hour (50 miles per hour) in a 35 kph (22 mph) zone, veered off the Panamerican highway into a 50 meter (164 ft.) deep gorge.
The incident took place near the Huacarpay lagoon in Cusco province some 332 kilometers (206 miles) south east of that province's capital.
Rescue workers and firemen at the scene worked to free those injured inside the crumpled double decker bus, whose top floor was completely flattened in the accident.
Injured people were taken to the Cusco Hospital.

Andean Explorer Train Full Journey from Puno to Cusco
The Fifth day of my South America Trip.
This spectacular rail journey begins in the beautiful city of Puno, on the shores of Lake Titicaca and travels North to historic Cuzco (Cusco)
On the journey, the train makes a gentle climb to higher, and cooler, altitudes. The first half of the journey is dominated by the magnificent Andean mountains which towers over the deep valleys of the meandering Huatanay River. It then reaches the gentler, rolling Andean Plains, where vicuña and alpaca can be seen. If travelling aboard the Andean Explorer, the glass-walled observation car provides the perfect opportunity to view the beautiful scenery.
The journey is broken by a scenic stop at La Raya, which is also the highest point on the route.
Train journey between Cuzco (Cusco) and Lake Titicaca (or vice versa), three-course lunch. In additional to the complimentary lunch a Breakfast Menu, along with various snacks and a continuous Restaurant and Bar service is available at an additional cost.
JOURNEY
Juliaca is the first stop on this journey through Andean highland culture after departing Puno (3,855 meters), an expanding, low-roofed university town spread around an austere cathedral, which, since its foundation in 1668, has strengthened its tenuous grip on the shores of Lake Titicaca by gradually scaling the surrounding hills.
281 Km from Cusco - the train reaches Juliaca, a commercial railway-junction town of around 150,000 inhabitants, whose rampant buying and selling seems at times to virtually spill onto the tracks and force the train to pick its way through their stalls.
186 Km from Cusco - at Marangani, where an English-style manor house built in the last century is still home to the descendents of the wool barons who established the regions only textile factory there more than one hundred years ago, Cuzco's fertile hills give way to the high plain known as the Altiplano.
The train continues to climb for another 27 Km, past the thermal baths at Aguas Calientes to La Raya, 210 Km from Puno. At 4,321 meters above sea level this is the highest point on the journey, a cold, remote place whose surrounding snow-draped peaks are often shrouded by mist or fine rain, and whose eerie silence is at least partly attributable to eardrums blocked by the dizzying altitude. Crossing this great watershed, the train travels across a sea of seemingly-endless coarse grassland through villages lost to time for all but the Coca Cola company and local breweries.
120 Km from Cusco - at Raqchi, just before the San Pedro railway station, the remains of the great temple of Viracocha, the creator god, can just be seen to the left of the train. Raqchi has been described by John Hemming as probably the largest roofed building ever built by the Incas. Seventeen km beyond San Pedro, the train stops at Sicuani, a bustling island of commerce amid a barren landscape. Aymara women ferry their goods around this important market town on nimbly-chauffeured taxi-tricycles, or sit impassively before their wares awaiting a buyer.
80 Km from Cusco - the two villages of Cusipata and Checacupe (at 99 km) hide unexpected treasures of both pre-Columbian and colonial origin, from fine Inca and pre-Inca remains, to yet another ornately-decorated 17th century church.
59 Km from Cusco - at Urcos lies the lake which gives the village its name. Urcos is both a popular spot for weekenders from Cuzco (Cusco) and as local legend suggests, the repository of Inca gold hidden there forever by local chieftains, anxious to prevent the Spanish from melting down their sacred objects.
45 Km from Cusco - the church at Andahuaylillas is one of the jewels in Cuzco's colonial crown and boasts a magnificent series of murals and superb colonial-era paintings, all on diverse religious themes.
40 Km from Cusco - at Rumicolca, we are close to the great stone gateway of the same name which, for the Incas, silently guarded the southern approach to Cuzco (Cusco). For the much earlier Wari culture it served as an aqueduct, channeling water from the picturesque Laguna de Lucre to their walled city at Pikillacta.
32 Km from Cusco - before reaching Lake Muina, the train turns to the left, crossing the valley road, to join the Vilcanota River at Huambutio as it plunges sharply into its gorge before widening into the great Urubamba canyon.
25 Km from Cusco - the train passes through Oropesa, an early-rising community whose forty-seven bakeries have provided Cuzco (Cusco) with its daily bread for generations.

????????♀️ About Us????????♂️
We're Tanya and Dave. We moved from Boston to Austin and we're travel wanderers on a path to bring our love of travel and music together. Seeking out some of the coolest venues this world has to offer, exploring all that the great city of Austin has to offer...and of course enjoying some of the good food and adventures along the way. OF COURSE!!
