Illustration of The Private Machu Picchu Train

Inca Rail's The Private is a one-day luxury train charter to Machu Picchu in Peru, designed around your preferences and pace. You travel in an exclusive full-carriage reserved entirely for your group, with priority boarding, VIP transfers, and personalized service throughout. The journey includes a 4-course gourmet menu inspired by Peru's culinary heritage, paired with premium wines and pisco cocktails, plus live Andean music and open-air balcony access. A private lounge and bar car are at your disposal. This is a deeply customized experience rather than a scheduled group service; every detail adapts to what matters to you. Booking requires direct contact with Inca Rail's sales team via WhatsApp and advance planning of 2 to 3 months, especially during Peru's high season. The evidence does not publish a day-by-day itinerary or specific departure times, so you will need to confirm the exact logistics and timing with the operator before committing.
