The best time to fly to Peru

Planning a trip to Peru? The best time to visit really depends on your priorities. If you want the best weather, aim for the dry season between May and October. This is when you'll find sunny days and fewer crowds, perfect for hiking and exploring the many incredible sites Peru offers. However, bear in mind that this is also peak season, so you might encounter higher prices.

Low Season in Peru

Visiting during the low season (November to February) means you'll likely encounter rain, particularly in the Andes and Amazon. But don't let that deter you! The off-season offers a more affordable trip and fewer crowds. For instance, in November, you might want to experience the stunning Nazca Lines without the usual summer crowds. Temperatures during this season vary across locations, from around 15°C in the Andes to potentially higher temperatures in coastal areas.

High Season in Peru

The high season (June to August) brings ideal weather, particularly for hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. While this is a popular time to visit, the higher prices and increased number of tourists need to be taken into account. If you visit during this season, expect temperatures ranging around 20-25°C in Machu Picchu.
