The Belmond Andean’s Spa Car ensures guests receive a very Peruvian experience. Rejuvenating massages and facials utilize local ingredients. Additionally the Piano Bar Car has a medium grand piano, setting the backdrop for an evening of cocktails and conversations with fellow passengers. In the library, read more about the history and culture of Peru. Finally, in the Observation Car, appreciate the breathtaking landscape from the open deck.
Exploring Peru
The Belmond Andean Explorer makes several stops, giving travelers the opportunity to explore points of interest along the way. One- and two-night itineraries take travelers through Cusco, to several archaeological sites and the plains of the Andes.
A stop in the UNESCO World Heritage Site, the city of Arequipa, gives travelers the opportunity to explore its plaza and white baroque buildings at the base of a volcano. Another journey takes a trip to Lake Titicaca, the largest lake in South America. While here, travelers can enjoy a private lunch and watch a traditional dance. A boat ride onto the lake takes you to the man-made island of Uros, made of woven reeds. Take a step back in time at the Sumbay Caves, home to paintings estimated to be almost 8,000 years old.
