Peru Travel FAQs
A trip with Royalairtrip allows you to have a tour with freedom and flexibility. You decide where to visit, when to see, what to eat and where to stay.
How can I obtain my visa to Peru?
People from most countries can visit Peru for tourism purposes without a visa for up to 90 days, with the exception of a few nationalities who must obtain a visa from one of the Peruvian diplomatic missions. Citizens from the US, Canada, European Union, UK, Australia, and New Zealand are exempt from visas and must have a passport valid for at least 6 months on arrival.
Do I need any vaccinations to visit Peru?
No vaccines are required for entry into Peru. However, if you're traveling to jungle regions such as Iquitos or Puerto Maldonado, please consider getting vaccinated against yellow fever as a preventive measure. The vaccine should be administered at least 10 days before travel and provides lifetime protection.
How many days do I need in Peru?
If you have about 7 days in Peru, you can explore the highlights of the Inca culture, during which you'll set foot in many historical sites in Lima, Cusco, and Aguas Calientes. Most of our customers would like to spend two weeks taking an in-depth Peru tour from south to north. If you prefer a tour of specific interests like culture, flavor, and rainforest, you can contact us to customize a unique trip.
Can I combine my visit to Peru with another country?
Yes. Royalairtrip arranges tours to 80+ destinations in South America and other continents. With our tailor-made service, it is easy to extend your Peru tour to its neighboring countries or more, such as Brazil, Bolivia, Ecuador, etc. So, if you prefer a multi-country tour to Latin America, just let us know and we can help to customize a unique tour around your personal interests.
When is the best time to travel to Peru?
Generally, the best time to visit Peru is during the dry season, between May and October. Since Peru's geography includes the coast, highlands, and jungle, each has its ideal travel season.
Lima & the Coast: The best time is December to April, when the weather is warm and sunny. The rest of the year tends to be overcast and cooler.
Highlands (Cusco, Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca): Best from May to October, with clear skies and dry weather. The wet season (November to March) is greener and quieter, but comes with heavy rains in the Andes.
Amazon Rainforest (Iquitos, Puerto Maldonado): You can visit all year, but April to October is drier and better for spotting wildlife.
