Visit Machu Picchu with our Bimodal Service

Any time of the year is ideal to visit Machu Picchu: to go into the unparalleled adventure of going to the lost city of the Incas and be charged with the best energies accumulated in this ancestral space ingeniously located in the middle of the mountains and the Peruvian jungle.

Depending on the season in which you attend, both the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu will offer you a variety of landscapes, crops and experiences that you will surely never forget.

Particularly this season that is just beginning (from January to April) is the rainy season in Cusco, sacred to locals who are committed to harvesting the best fruits and have rewarding results for their hard work. And although it can be pouring rain at times, the farmers surely appreciate it.

Bimodal Service

During this season, Inca Rail also takes into consideration the necessary measures for our travelers to arrive safely to Machu Picchu.

Due to the rainy season, the railway between Cusco and Ollantaytambo closes, and it is not possible to travel by train from our Poroy station, located 20 minutes from the city of Cusco.

This closure takes place every year between January 2 and April 30, dates in which we enable our Executive Bimodal service, in which we combine Bus and Train transportation to Aguas Calientes or Machu Picchu Pueblo.

Route to Machu Picchu with Inca Rail´s Bimodal

People who plan to visit the navel of the world at the beginning of the year can purchase our combined transportation service from our website www.incarail.com or ticket offices located in Cusco and Ollantaytambo.

This service consists of taking a bus, exclusive to Inca Rail, from the hotel Costa del Sol in Cusco (Calle Santa Teresa 344), located nearby the Plaza de Armas de Cusco, where our main train station is located.

The bus transportation will be carried out in exclusive sprinters of 15 seats and equipped with reclining seats, safety belt, individual lights, coasters, replaceable headrest protector, draw arm support, padding; oxygen ball, AA and heating.

Once you are in Ollantaytambo, our staff will guide you to the train station where you will board your last vehicle until you reach Aguas Calientes or Machu Picchu Pueblo.
