  • Welcome onboard a First Class Train that will blow your mind. If you’re thinking of taking the ultimate train journey, watch this first!
    With its unmatched scenery, Belmond’s Andean Explorer should top not just your train trip list, but your entire travel bucket list.
    Belmond launched the Andean Explorer in 2017 and, after a two year break -- by pure chance (!!) -- we were on the first trip onboard this First Class Train!
    In this video, we’ll travel across Peru from Cusco to Arequipa onboard the ultimate First Class Overnight Train in a luxurious suite, the ultimate First Class Train accommodation.
    You’ll see the First Class Train cabins available on this train along with the First Class Train Food!
    We’ll also explore Peru on our way, stopping at a town 14,200 feet in the Andes Mountains, Lake Titicaca, the highest navigable lake in the world, and to see some 10,000 year old cave paintings.
    You’ll see the sights, the food, and gain insight into what it’s like to travel on the ultimate First Class Train: Belmond’s Andean Explorer.

I've been 4 times. He says Lake Titicaca is one of his favorite places in the world. It is for me also. These trips will open your eyes to the wonders of our world and make you questions how you are living, what you are doing back home. I ended up retiring to Ecuador, and, 16 years later, have not regretted it. Best wishes, and, yes, you too can do this. JUST DO IT!

    Dear Jeb and Suzanne: thank you for making it possible for me to experience every nuance of this incredible rail/scenery/gastronomic journey. Your production values and commentary are absolutely world-class. In my younger, more able-bodied days I was lucky enough to travel much of the world first class, including 17 transatlantic ocean voyages during the golden era. In my 74th year I am now severely disabled with MS and no longer have the opportunity/money to travel as I might wish. Your videos enable me to experience vicariously what would otherwise be impossible. I wish you a lifetime of great traveling and I look forward to being lucky enough to follow you on your many journeys. Godspeed, Peter

    I did the day train trip from Puno to Cusco a few years ago, it was an absolutely enchanting day. The service & food was incredible, and I have never seen better views anywhere in the world. The weird thing was the negative reviews online - people complaining that the train was slow, that the seats were armchairs bolted to the floor rather than "proper" train seats, even complaining about the entertainment put on by the crew - I guess there is no pleasing some people!

    I loveeee Peru! It is such a diverse country, it is the fifth most biodiverse country in the world. I just saw videos of the Peruvian Andes. Machu Picchu is wonderful and then I see a video of the only boiling river in the world located in the huge Peruvian jungle, now this desert!!
    Peru is fascinating! An important fact is that Peru is the 4th country with the most tropical areas in the world, only behind Brazil, Indonesia and Congo. The country is 65% jungle.

      Its not the same. Peru is born from the mixture of European and native culture. Like France is the mixture of Gauls, Romans and Germanic tribes, for example.
      While the sentiment is appreciated the Incas converted very quickly, 1 generation later most of the nobility was staunchly catholic.
      It seems the native religion was very similar in many ways so it made it easy to adapt.

If you can afford the flight to Peru and even this train, you can afford to spend money on the products of the local people, ultimately they make up most of Peru.

    Peru is definitely the country that offers the most in South America,
    Biodiversity in the country is huge, we all love the Peruvian Andes that are wonderful, just look at Machu Picchu!!! but the country is 65% tropical jungle, being the most tropical Hispanic country in the world, just look at the boiling river, it is something unique never seen and exists in Peru a beautiful country in my opinion the most beautiful in South America.

    After years of "bucket list" I finally booked my ticket in a sleeper room on the Coast Starlight. Now I want to ride every long haul passenger train that exists. Thanks for sharing your joy.

    I have been on the Andean Explorer in 2012 and the journey to Puno was awesome! They served Chicha Morada and Pisco Sour. It was an amazing experience with the train chugging slowly through the mountains, reaching the highest point of 4050 mtrs (can't remember exactly the number) in La Raya, the mesmerising Peruvian Altiplano, seeing the tuk tuks in Juliaca and finally, the breathtaking view of Lake Titicaca before it grew dark. Long story made short....overall a 10/10! Thanks for sharing this wonderful video.

    Now I know why my daughter and son-in-law chose Peru as their destination for their honeymoon a few years ago. Truly spectacular scenery and I am going to look into booking a trip on this incredible train journey for my bride and myself as well Jeb. Thank You so much for sharing your journey!
