Machu Picchu–the compound Quechua word that translates to “old peak” or “old mountain.” On the other hand, the famous mountain featured in all classic shots of Machu Picchu is called Huayna Picchu or “young peak.”
Why do this tour?
If you’ve got a packed itinerary for exploring Peru, the Machu Picchu one-day tour is the ideal excursion for you not to miss the most famous tourist spot in Peru.
You have several train options to get you to the world-renowned Inca citadel. Take the regular train and bus option or choose between two luxurious train transports: the Vistadome Train or the Belmond Hiram Bingham train.

With the Belmond Hiram Bingham train, you will experience the spectacular scenery and enjoy elegant dining in train cars modeled after the Pullman cars of the 1920s. The luxury train boasts a bar car and an observatory where you can take in the sights in the open air as you sip your traditional Peruvian cocktail while listening to live local music.
All train tours come with a professional guide who will lead you to Machu Picchu’s most captivating areas while providing historical background and insight into the ruins. Strike your best poses and take extraordinary photos of this iconic world heritage site. A couple of the highlights include the Temple of the Moon and the ancient Inca bridge.
