Train to Machu Picchu
When making your booking, you'll be able to choose which train you'd like to hop aboard for your journey from Ollantaytambo to Machu Picchu. You can check out the details of both trains below:
Expedition train
The Expedition train will take you to Aguas Calientes, which is the gateway to Machu Picchu. You'll spend 1 hour 30 minutes gliding along one of the most spectacular railway routes in the world.
During the journey, you'll admire Andean scenery that'll leave you lost for words. You'll love gazing out the views from the train's large windows and admiring the view.
Vistadome train
If you choose the Vistadome train, you'll travel to Machu Picchu in a fun and unique way. The carriages have panoramic windows in the walls and ceilings that'll make you feel like you're part of nature outside.
While you admire the views, there'll be a recorded commentary on the train that'll explain lots of fascinating details about the places you'll see during the journey.

Instead, you'll arrive at Avenida Imperio de los Inkas station, just a 5-minute walk away from Aguas Calientes station.
