Best time to visit
Peru is a year-round destination, though the dry season (May to October) in the highlands offers better weather for trekking and sightseeing. In the Amazon, Peru's summer (December to March) brings more rain. Prices don't follow a predictable seasonal pattern, so focus on dates that suit your plans and book ahead.
