Explore Peru, one of South America's most colourful, diverse, and unique countries. On bespoke travel packages, discover the best the country offers, from the rugged Andes to the verdant Amazon—we'll deliver an experience you will never forget.
Trips to Peru are incredible adventures that leave a lasting impression. While Machu Picchu may have put the country on the map, there are so many Peru highlights to discover.
Peru is exceptionally diverse – you might know all about the Andes and those remarkable Inca sights. But did you know that Peru comprises one of the most protected swaths of the Amazon Rainforest? Or that its coastline boasts world-class surfing beaches and phenomenal mud cities carved by ancient cultures that pre-dated the Incas? Or about its spectacular colonial-era cities, preserved for centuries?
Peru vacations are not only about checking off famous sights. It's about the spontaneous moments in between— enjoying fresh ceviche by the sea or downing a refreshing pisco sour after dune bashing in the desert. Surprise wildlife encounters on boat trips down a quiet Amazon tributary or divine meals at Michelin-starred restaurants in Lima. And don't forget the breathtaking views on the road to Colca Canyon, where you can see Andean Condors take flight.
While Machu Picchu may draw travellers initially, the country's other attractions keep them returning for more.

The best time to visit Peru is during the dry season, May through October, especially if you wish to visit Cusco and do the Inca Trail. November through April is the rainy season with frequent rain showers.
The best months to visit Machu Picchu are typically during the dry season, which runs from May to October. This period offers the most stable weather conditions with minimal rainfall, making it ideal for trekking and exploring the archaeological site. However, keep in mind that Machu Picchu can be crowded during peak season, especially in June, July, and August. If you prefer smaller crowds, consider visiting during the shoulder months of April and October, when the weather is still favourable, but the main citadel will welcome far fewer visitors.
The answer is yes, but there are places and situations that are dangerous, however, easily avoidable. Nowadays Peru is a highly recognized tourist destination and the government with the help of the police makes sure that measures are taken to make people feel secure in towns, cities and tourist destinations.
Some safety notes: do not take your valuables with you, leave them locked in a safety deposit box; keep your spending money, camera and phone close to you, preferably beneath your clothing; do not go to areas where tourists are not expected; always use taxis with official identification.
In Peru the standard voltage is 220 V. The standard frequency is 60 Hz. The power sockets that are used are of type A / B / C.
