Signature Experience
Boarding the morning train to Machu Picchu from the resort's private station — the departure happens on-property rather than requiring a pre-dawn transfer to a public station.
The private train station eliminates the transfer to Ollantaytambo or Poroy for Machu Picchu rail departures — guests board PeruRail directly from the resort grounds, which streamlines the logistics of multi-day Sacred Valley itineraries.
