At least 900 tourists were left stranded near Machu Picchu after protestors blocked the train tracks that lead to and from the ancient Inca city.
As a result of the chaos, the US Embassy has issued a travel warning, urging visitors to avoid the attraction until the conflict is resolved.
PeruRail, the Latin American country's leading train operator, said service to and from the Word Wonder was suspended.
This service halt is a result of demonstrators covering the route in the mountainous Cusco region with rocks and logs.
The train company also stated 'third parties' had dug up part of its rail route, which slowed evacuation operations.
