WHEN TO VISIT

Peru has three main geographic regions: Pacific coast, Andes highlands and Amazon rainforest, this is why you will find a wide variety of climate conditions. However, Peru is a year-round destination.

In general, the best time to visit Peru is during the dry season, between April and October, which offers bright days in the Andes, making it perfect for outdoor activities, particularly treks. If you are interested to exploring our coast, the best time is from December to April when weather is warm and sunny. The Northern coast is warm year-round.

When it comes to the Amazon rainforest, the best time to visit depends on your specific interests and travel plans. The high-water season runs from December to May, while the low-water season occurs from June to November. Both seasons offer unique experiences and features differences in the plant and animal wildlife.
