The most luxurious way to travel between Cusco and Puno <\/b>(Lake Titicaca) is without doubt the Andean Explorer<\/b> train operated by Peru Rail<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Andean<\/p>\n

This train departs every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday<\/b> and on Fridays during high season either from Cusco or Puno’s train station and takes passengers on a 10 hours<\/b> magnificent journey including a Gourmet lunch, an afternoon tea plus on board entertainment while they enjoy of the sights of the Andean mountains and valleys.<\/p>\n

\"Andean \"Andean<\/p>\n

The Andean Explorer<\/b> uses Pullman Trains<\/b> of the twenties decorated with a subtle style and includes dining cars and a car-bar with an outdoor observatory area, perfect to take fresh and pure air while relaxing with the views of the impotent mountains.<\/p>\n

\"Andean \"Andean \"Andean<\/p>\n

The journey has been classified as one of the World’s Top 25 Trains by The Society of the International Railway Travelers<\/strong> together with the Hiram Bingham Train (Cusco-Machu Picchu-Cusco) because of its the highest standard-gauge rail routes in the world, reaching altitudes up to 14,150 feet. They point as a highlight the riding at sunset the few miles before Puno alongside Lake Titicaca because \u201cthe views are nothing short of spectacular.\u201d<\/p>\n

The service is nonstop although passengers can expect a stop in La Raya<\/strong>, \u00a04.321 meters above sea level (14,150 feet), a cold and remote place, where a fine mist or rain often hide the spectral peaks and whose silence can be attributed to a dizzying height that blocks the eardrums of each traveler.<\/p>\n

The arrival in Cusco or Puno is expected at around 5 PM when passengers will start in the following days their visits to the amazing Machu Picchu or the Titicaca Lake<\/strong>after experienced one of the best rail journeys of the world!<\/p>\n
