Train to Machu Picchu

When booking, you can choose which train to take from Ollantaytambo to Machu Picchu. Below are the details of both trains:

Expedition train

The Expedition train will take you to Aguas Calientes, the gateway to Machu Picchu. The journey lasts 1 hour 30 minutes along one of the most spectacular railway routes in the world. You will enjoy views from the train's large windows.

Vistadome train

If you choose the Vistadome train, you will travel to Machu Picchu with panoramic windows in the walls and ceilings. A recorded commentary will be provided during the journey, explaining details about the places you will see.

Alternate Stop

Be aware that if you choose the Expedition or Vistadome train departing at 5:05 am, 12:55 pm, or 7:04 pm, it will not drop you off at Aguas Calientes station. Instead, you will arrive at Avenida Imperio de los Inkas station, which is a 5-minute walk to Aguas Calientes station.
