New Luxury Train Reflects Peru’s Beauty, Culture, Spirit

“I wanted to connect the interior with the location and make it a holistic journey of discovery.”

So says Inge Moore, interior designer of South America’s first overnight luxury train, the Belmond Andean Explorer, in Belmond’s newly arrived brochure. The train’s debut is scheduled for May, 2017.

“Colors and textures are inspired by Peruvian nature,” Ms. Moore continues. “Soft ivory alpaca tones, Andean slate greys and woven textures and handicrafts”

We’ve blocked space on one of the train’s first itineraries — Cusco to Puno to Arequipa. It’s part of a special trip June 1-11 that also includes the Belmond Hiram Bingham luxury train, which runs between Cusco and Machu Picchu. To download a copy of this special itinerary, click here.

“This truly is some of the most breathtaking and inspiring scenery in the world,” says IRT’s President, Eleanor Flagler Hardy, who traveled the special IRT route. “Traveling across the Peruvian Altiplano, with the Andes in the background, is astonishing,” she says.

Peru itself is a fabulous destination. Its friendly people, rustic luxury, great dining, amazing architecture and fascinating culture make this a journey not to be missed.
