Discover Peru

Peru is a land of legends, where the ancient Inca Empire meets vibrant modern culture. From the mist-shrouded peaks of Machu Picchu and the sacred Valley to the colorful streets of Cusco and the world-renowned gastronomic scene of Lima, Peru offers an unparalleled journey through history, biodiversity, and culinary excellence.

Cusco

The former capital of the Inca Empire, a stunning mix of Inca stonework and Spanish colonial architecture, and the gateway to Machu Picchu.

Machu Picchu (UNESCO)Sacred ValleyLake TiticacaCevicheLomo Saltado

Best Time: May to October (Dry season; best for trekking in the Andes and visiting Machu Picchu)

Currency: Peruvian Sol (PEN)

Daily Budget: $50-120/day

Safety & Scams

Generally safe for tourists; petty crime like pickpocketing is common in busy markets and tourist hubs in Lima and Cusco; avoid walking alone in isolated areas at night; use authorized taxis or ride-hailing apps; altitude sickness is a serious risk in the Andes—acclimatize slowly and drink coca tea; healthcare is excellent in Lima's private clinics but varies in rural areas; tap water is not safe to drink—always use bottled or purified water.

Getting Around

Domestic flights (LATAM, Sky) are the fastest way to travel between Lima, Cusco, and Arequipa; luxury buses (Cruz del Sur) are excellent for long distances; trains (PeruRail, Inca Rail) are essential for reaching Machu Picchu; 'combis' are local minibuses but can be chaotic for tourists.

Cultural Etiquette

Greetings involve a handshake or a single kiss on the cheek; show respect for indigenous traditions and sacred sites; tipping is customary in restaurants (10%); punctuality is flexible socially but expected for tours and transport.

Internet & Connectivity

Digital infrastructure is good in major cities; 4G is widely available via Movistar, Claro, and Entel; high-speed Wi-Fi is standard in hotels and tourist cafes in Lima and Cusco; connectivity may be weak in remote parts of the Amazon or high Andes.
