Best time to visit
Peru is a year-round destination, but the dry season (May to October) is ideal for visiting Machu Picchu and trekking in the Andes without rain. The rainy season (November to April) brings more clouds but fewer tourists. Consider the climate based on your chosen region: coast, highlands, or jungle.
What to do upon arrival
You'll land in Lima, Peru's capital. From there you can fly to Cusco (short one-hour flight) to visit Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley. Also explore Lima itself: world-class cuisine, museums, and beaches. The Amazon rainforest, Nazca lines, and Lake Titicaca are other classic attractions. Book excursions in advance, especially if you want the train to Machu Picchu.
