The Belmond Andean Explorer, launched in May 2017, is South America's first luxury sleeper train. It replaced the eponymous Pullman day train which ran between Cusco and Puno, on Lake Titicaca. With the new train, this trip is converted to a one-night journey, and extended from Puno for another overnight ride to Arequipa in southern Peru.
