The Hiram Bingham luxury train service between Cuzco and Machu Picchu, is named after the American explorer who rediscovered the stunning ruins of the ancient citadel in 1911. The Hiram Bingham train with its elegant interior upholstery reflects the luxury of the 1920's Pullman era. For many visitors, the journey to Machu Picchu is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

The train leaves in the morning from Cuzco taking a spectacular journey through the Sacred Valley and onto the town of Aguas Calientes at the base of Machu Picchu. The journey takes approximately 3.5 hours, during which views can been seen from your seat or the observation car. Brunch is served in one of the two dining cars on the way to Machu Picchu.

The return journey begins in the early evening, during the trip a sumptuous dinner is served before arriving back to Cuzco.

The Hiram Bingham train can be combined with the Vistadome train in one direction.
