Getting to Your Machu Picchu Train

Most trains to Machu Picchu (Aguas Calientes) depart from Ollantaytambo station, about 1.5 hours from Cusco by road. Timing is everything — you need to arrive at the station at least 30 minutes before departure.

We coordinate your pickup based on your train schedule. Tell us your train time, and we'll pick you up with plenty of margin so you arrive relaxed, not rushing.

Our drivers know the road conditions, traffic patterns, and alternate routes between Cusco and Ollantaytambo. Rain, roadwork, or local events won't catch us off guard.
