Belmond Andean Explorer, Peru

This is new – and there’s nothing else quite like it: luxury sleeper train travel comes to South America for the very first time; the unfolding Peruvian vista is absolutely breath-taking, and the sumptuous accommodation and attentive service aboard is, we think, a global standard-setter.

Belmond Andean Explorer, Peru

There are four different journeys you can take as part of Belmond’s brand new – introduced in 2017 – schedule of luxury overnight train trips around Peru. The one we love has two utterly cossetting nights aboard and takes you along one of the highest rail routes on earth. 

You set out from Cusco, the Inca Empire’s ancient capital, cross the spectacular Andean plains, and head on to Lake Titicaca, the biggest and certainly the most awe-inspiring lake in the whole of South America. Stops en route means you can explore the vast Colca Canyon, and at the journey’s end we know you’ll love the city of Arequipa, a cherished UNESCO World Heritage site.

Between the tour hardpoints, and along every mile of this amazing journey – seen from the observation car with their abundantly-stocked cocktail bar – you’ll enjoy indulgent comfort, wonderful beds, mouth-watering food and a contemporary design environment that’s a stepchange from the faux-Victoriana you’ll find on other luxury sleepers. The train can take no more than 48 travellers, with a retinue of 50 staff to look after everything you’ll want, including proven (and delicious) concoctions to combat altitude sickness!

And for anyone whose daily train journey involves the grind of commuting to the office, we have more great news. Mobile reception is terrible, so you really will be getting away from every aspect of normal train travel to revel in Peru’s natural beauty, and the new pride of its railways.
