Peru has wonderful natural and tourist attractions where you practice outdoor activities and all known adventure sports.
Its varied geography includes, among others, a warm desert coast, imposing mountains (Andes) and an exuberant jungle. In Peru, you can practice conventional and adventure tourism, going through mountaineering in the snow peak mountains, sandboarding in the coastal dunes, canoeing in mighty rivers, walking along long and cobbled Inca roads, among many others.
Most of travelers who come to Peru for the first time focus their goal on Machu Picchu (Cusco), which is located in the mountains (Andes), and chose itineraries that include this attraction.
Then the best season to visit Peru is between the months of April to November during the dry season (absence or little rain) in the mountains.
During those months, this is also the high tourist season, therefore, everything is more expensive and at the same time scarced. It is recommended to book tours and services in advance for these dates.
In Peru there is accommodation for all kinds of requirements. You can find basic lodging from $10 dollars to luxurious hotels at $1000 per night
The type of accommodation and quality of service vary greatly, mainly in Lima and Cusco, due to the high demand. Cusco being the main destination and being a small city, it has a deficit in terms of the amount of accommodations available.
