HISTORY

Belmond Hiram Bingham launched in 2003 to escort guests in lavish style high into the Andes. Named after the American explorer who re-discovered the site of Machu Picchu, the train celebrates the thrill of early exploration, with extra added elegance and a lively ambience. An international effort, the chassis were built in South Africa and the carriages decked out by French company Compagnie Des Internationales Wagons-Lits. Finally, the finished article was ready to take luxury rail travel in Peru by storm.
