Passengers on the 360° Train receive complimentary snacks made with local Andean ingredients and access to digital features including route tracking and Wi-Fi. The cultural experience extends to live Andean musical performances on return trips and a traditional Kintu ceremony with coca leaves during outbound journeys, when available.
The train operates with two daily departures from Ollantaytambo Station to Aguas Calientes (Machu Picchu Pueblo), with the journey lasting approximately 1 hour 40 minutes. A single daily departure from Poroy Station is available when weather permits, though this route closes from January through April during rainy season.
Round-trip fares average USD 170, with seasonal price variations. Inca Rail advises securing reservations at least one month before travel during low season and three months ahead for high season visits. The luggage policy allows one carry-on item up to 8 kg (17 lb) with maximum dimensions of 118 cm (46 linear inches).
For convenience, Inca Rail provides an “All-Inclusive” option that combines train transportation with a guided tour, bus transfers between Aguas Calientes and Machu Picchu, and site entrance tickets. This package simplifies the logistics of visiting the ancient citadel, eliminating the need to arrange components separately.
The 360° Train represents part of Inca Rail’s commitment to enhancing visitor access to Peru’s most famous archaeological site. The company has operated on the narrow gauge railway between Cusco and Machu Picchu since 2009, traversing 67.5 miles (108.6 kilometers) of track that descends from Cusco’s elevation of 11,437 feet to Aguas Calientes at 6,693 feet above sea level.
From Aguas Calientes, travelers can reach the Machu Picchu citadel via a 30-minute bus ride or a 2.5-hour hiking trail. The train service accommodates various travel preferences while providing consistent amenities that highlight Peruvian culture and natural beauty.
