Because of this, train travel communicates a sense of old-fashioned decadence, and the latest rail journey from Belmond, a luxury travel adventure company, takes this notion to new heights.
Literally.
The Andean Explorer will be one of the highest train journeys in the world, offering overnight excursions through the mountains of Peru. The journey begins in the ancient Incan capital of Cusco, and includes stops like Lake Titicaca, Colca Canyon, and the historic city of Arequipa.
While journeys are expected to begin in May 2017, you can enjoy a preview of the stylish adventure with the photos below.
