Info

Peru offers travel experiences throughout the year, although weather conditions vary significantly between the coast, the Andes and the Amazon rainforest. Travelers should select their travel dates according to the destinations and activities included in their itinerary.

Visitors traveling to high-altitude destinations such as Cusco, Rainbow Mountain or Lake Titicaca should allow time to acclimatize. Resting after arrival, staying hydrated, eating light meals and gradually increasing physical activity can help make the experience more comfortable.

Comfortable walking shoes, layered clothing, sun protection, rain gear and a reusable water bottle are recommended. Travelers should also carry their original passport when visiting Machu Picchu and other attractions that require identity verification.
