What families should know

PeruRail’s official Vistadome page identifies a named panoramic passenger train for the route “Cusco, Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu,” lists departures from Wánchaq, San Pedro, Poroy, Ollantaytambo and Urubamba, and states in its FAQ: “Ollantaytambo → Machu Picchu: approx. 1 hr 30 min – 2 hrs.” The official 2026 ticket page states: “Buy your train ticket for 2026 and enjoy a 10% discount by entering the coupon VISTA10.” The Vistadome page links to the official booking endpoint, but that endpoint returned Access Denied during the automated check on 2026-09-16; fares, child/infant treatment, stroller/accessibility rules and a street-number address were not published on the opened official pages. The coordinate is the canonical Ollantaytambo boarding-point anchor: Nominatim returned the named Ollantaytambo train-station building, and Photon independently returned the same named physical station at the same point.
