The train from Cuzco to Aguas Calientes is the fastest and only way to get to Machu Picchu for tourists. PeruRail currently has a monopoly on service to Aguas Calientes. The four hour, 80 kilometer ride costs 72 dollars round-trip for the cheapest "backpacker" train and about 107 dollars for the more comfortable "Vistadome" train. The Hiram Bingham luxury train is also available for a mere 588 dollars.
