See Peru on the Vistadome Train

Remember when the train was the ultimate form of luxury travel? Even if not, the train ride between Aguas Calientes and Cusco is an awesome way to see southern Peru. Safe, modern and comfortable, the Vistadome is a great way to travel in style. Traveling In Heels shares that the glass-walled Vistadome Train offers the “…most scenic views and innumerable opportunities to capture panoramic photos of the Andes and Peruvian countryside.” Offering local Peruvian food, entertainment and drinks, the Vistadome experience takes traveling by train to new heights.

Machu Picchu & Inca Culture

Brazil’s Oyster.com reports, “Peru’s iconic Machu Picchu site will be limiting visitors starting in 2019, so it’s the perfect year to make sure dad gets there.” A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Machu Picchu is an amazing representation of Inca culture. Seeing this man-made structure, made only by sheer manpower is baffling. The drainage systems, staircases, terraces and layout features are impressive, especially because they were built in the 15th century! For all history, carpentry and architecture buffs, Machu Picchu qualifies as an amazing destination.
