★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 157 reviews · from $1,441Our pick

Review the Hiram Bingham luxury train to Machu Picchu, with gourmet meals, expert guiding, VIP buses, costs, tips, and drawbacks.

“The train ride and the tour were fantastic, really recommended. However, I'm not quite sure if booking through Viator adds that much for the extra price. Communication was suboptimal. We were staying in an AirBnB so I wanted to make sure that we would be picked up and what time. It was difficult to get in touch with them, but after all everything went smooth.”

The logistics were seamless from Cusco, letting us immerse in stunning Andean views, ancient ruins, and challenging paths. Our guide, Edi de Puma, was fantastic—passionate about Incan history, flora, and fauna, keeping spirits high. His evening flute sessions under the stars added a cultural touch that was pure serenity.

“This was a very good tour if you like to see a lot in a small amount of time. I didn’t want to spend two days touring the Sacred Valley so this was a good option. However it was a very long day and some of it was a bit rushed. Be prepared for quick walking and quite a few steps. The guide was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot.”

Review of the luxury Hiram Bingham train tour from Cusco to Machu Picchu, with gourmet meals, guided sightseeing, tips, timing, and value advice.

“The tour was great! We were picked up from the hotel and soon after arrived to the train. Travel by train was very nice, luxurious experience with great food and great views. It took us 2 hours to get to the Aguascalientas and then 30 minutes to get to the entrance to the Machu Picchu. Roberto, our guide, was waiting us at the entrance. We were travelling along the second route, which was great as we saw Machu Picchu from the vista at the start and then descended into the city itself and walked around it. Roberto told us about the history of the place, about Inca empire and traditions,…”
