What is the best month to visit Peru? Can I visit Peru during the off-season?

The best time to visit Peru is between the months of May and September. Corresponding with the dry season, temperatures in the country at this time hover between 16°C to 22°C. But more importantly, traveling to Peru during this time means that there is little fear of getting caught in the country’s torrential monsoon. Another less popular but still good time to visit Peru is between October and December. A shoulder period between dry and monsoon seasons, the climate during this time of year is generally fine, although skies are cloudier and you might have to dodge the odd shower. The wettest months are January and February. It is still possible to visit destinations such as Lake Titicaca during the rainy season, but the Inca Trail is closed for travelers.

How many days do you need in Peru?

Given its wealth of attractions, there are many reasons why you should consider Peru trips that last between ten days and two weeks . This will give you enough time to see top-rated sites, such as Manu National Park, while also discovering the country’s history and culture in more far-flung and as-yet-unknown destinations. You can still take in a number of attractions even if you can only spare one week in Peru , however, the time constraint would mean that you will have to limit your exploration to a destination or two. For a more detailed rundown, check out our travel guide on how many days to spend in Peru .

What is considered rude in Peru? What cultural notions should I be aware of?

Personal contact is an important part of Peruvian culture. Not only do Peruvians tend to stand closer to each other than you might at home, but physical contact (especially on one’s arms and back) is also common. You should avoid the desire to step away, as this is considered offensive. Greetings are important, with handshakes along with a few words of greeting being common. Give the elderly your respect if you are young and leave your seat on public transportation for them.

Do I need to acclimatize before hiking Machu Pichu?

If you live close to sea level, then you will realize what a significant effect higher elevations can have on your body upon arriving in Cusco. Doctors recommend at least two days of acclimatization before considering any strenuous activities, such as going for the popular two or four-day hikes to Machu Picchu. A nice way to spend this time would be by exploring the historic center of Lima or taking one of the many less-demanding day hikes that are available in the country. If you plan on trekking, you can read our article on the ultimate trekking guide in Peru .

What vaccinations do I need?

You should ensure you are up to date with any vaccinations that are standard in your home country, such as those providing protection against tetanus and measles. A medical professional may suggest boosters for these vaccinations. Other diseases they may suggest vaccinations for are hepatitis B, diphtheria, and rabies, all of which are potentially deadly. Yellow fever, transmitted by mosquitoes, is a risk in the country’s east. There is a risk of malaria in the country’s northeast, around Iquitos and the Peruvian Amazon. Since there is currently no vaccination against this disease, prophylactic drugs are recommended. Find more information here .

Is Peru expensive to visit? How do the ATMs work?

Peru is not expensive for travelers and we recommend it as a top pick for visitors on a budget . Most travelers can get by on USD 30 to USD 40 per day, including transport, accommodation, and food. Tackling the Inca Trail and exploring Machu Picchu are must-do attractions but also relatively costly. ATMs are the quickest way to withdraw neuvos soles, as the country’s currency is called, on the road and visa cards are easily accepted. Many ATMs have an English language option, too. They can be found in some airports, inside banks, and as stand-alone units in major towns and cities. If you are looking for other destinations to visit on a budget, find more information here .

Do they speak English in Peru?

Spanish is the most-spoken European language in Peru, alongside several local languages like Quechan and Aymara. Those involved in the tourism industry and those in popular destinations such as Lima and Cusco will speak some English, while guides leading tours for English-speaking travelers will have a good hold of the language. However, knowing a few words of Spanish is always useful.

Highly recommended!

5 - Excellent

Carolyn Guercio-Wisler

“In our group we had 3 vegans, 2 gluten free, 1 dairy free, 1 fish free which is a lot!!! Every meal was beyond delicious and our chef Jose really worked hard to help us enjoy every meal and be well fueled for the long, strenuous daily hikes. Our guides Miguel and Romario made us all feel safe right away, educated us at every occasion and created an incredible respectful environment while hiking this amazingly difficult trail. The group really had a great vibe with each other so many fun times were had! Our porters worked harder than anyone I’ve ever seen work and had our tents, pads and duffels waiting for us at the end of each days hike. I highly recommend this tour!”

Perfect

Kelley Lipphard

“We had a fabulous nine-day tour, including the two day Inca experience, Inca trail/Machu Picchu, and Rainbow Mountain. John, our contact, met us at the airport and helped us generally acclimate to the new culture. We cannot praise Adolfo, our guide, enough for his knowledge, experience, and attentiveness to our needs. He was so fun to be with. Our driver, Edgar, was excellent. All over, a fantastic adventure.”

BEST experience!

5 - Excellent

Harry Milne

“"Really amazing experience with some really great people! This is an awesome way to explore Machu Picchu, learning the history along the way and seeing some amazing sights! The chefs made the best food on the mountain - every lunch, breakfast and dinner was different with an abundance of food and GREAT variety! The porters worked very hard carrying our bags, being friendly and always giving the best service - it is notable that the tour company provides them with good kit, equipment and food. Finally, the guides were both great fun and always tried to ensure we had the best experience. Henry (the younger guide) had a great sense of humour, telling good stories but also helped slower members of the group at the back which enabled the faster ones to go ahead at their pace. Rosel (the head guide) was also very friendly, has an awesome laugh and was very good at organising our time to arrive on time at every point and ensure everyone had the correct kit and equipment, he was also very informative about the history of the Inca Trail. Would definitely recommend and would definitely do it again! One word of warning - naturally you are wild camping so the toilet facilities are not amazing, but it is a small sacrifice for the BEST experience!"”
