Looks like the Express train-Suite. Photo

Travel with comfort.

In South America this summer launched the Express Belmond Andean Explorer, which had created a Paradise for travelers. Train runs between Cuzco — the ancient capital of the Inca Empire and the city of Arequipa and gives the passengers a few days of luxurious rest.

The Express leaves from Cusco, crossing the Alpine meadows of the Andes and takes passengers to lake Titicaca, the Colca canyon and then to Arequipa. The journey lasts three days and two nights. Optionally, you can go all the way and back
