After a morning tour of Machu Picchu, on April 17, 2006, we walked from the Pueblo Hotel, down the train track "Main Street" of town; to the Aguas Calientes Train Station and began boarding the Perurail Ferrostal Vistadome Class Train. We boarded at about 1:09 PM local time. We were leaving on a four hour train journey to Cusco so that we could check into the Picoaga Hotel and then tour Cusco the next day. We disembarked the train at the Poroy Train Station.. The narrow gauge track causes our Vistadome Class Train to bump as it threads its way along the Urubamba River, providing the Vistadome passengers with awe-inspiring views of the dramatic canyons of the Urubamba Valley. The railway actually follows the river into the Urubamba Gorge. We see the remains of sizeable settlements which appear and then just as quickly disappear, where the local Indian farmers manage their farms and reside just as they have for hundreds of years. We found that when touring Peru, Magical Cusco Tours gave us the best service of all. They even arranged very personal tours based upon our ages and experience. They were there for us whenever we needed them. Click on any of their links on our pages and they will give you a 4% discount for taking their package tours. Mention delange.org.
