Looking to include a spectacular train journey in your Peru holiday? Well how about the world's highest scheduled rail service, climbing over 4000m from sea-level in Lima to the dizzy heights of Huanuco - high in the Andes?
What's more, you can do it in style aboard the new Central Railway services, which now operates twice a month with newly-refurbished carriages with special observation windows, a fully-stocked bar, and every other convenience you could want to help you enjoy this incredible rail trip!
Of course, there is also the superb Andean Explorer service between Puno and Cusco, and the trains between Machu Picchu and Cusco to work into your trip as well, but for our money the Central Railway offers something different: a little slice of history and something out of the ordinary that most tourists don't get to experience, so even if you're not a railway enthusiast it's worth considering including this in your holiday in Peru!
