The best time to visit Peru is to walk the Inca Trail

Arabiaweather.com - Ismail Qassemi - Peru .. This undiscovered destination of Arab travelers contains ancient historical monuments, stunning landscapes, and one of the most famous tourist attractions in the world, which is the ruins of Machu Picchu.

Usually, when we talk about South America, there are countries in which the seasons are reversed from the northern hemisphere, so when it is summer in our country, there is winter and vice versa.

There are also other countries located on the equator and there are only two seasons during the year, the rainy season and the dry season, but the temperatures remain the same, so summer and winter are moderate, and among these countries is Peru.

When can you visit Peru?

You can visit most places in Peru all year round and you will have a great time there because Peru is located near the equator, and its winters and summers are mild.

But in the cloud forests, where Machu Picchu is located and the highlands of the Andes, there are wet and dry seasons, with the rainy season between November and February.

So, if you're planning to visit Machu Picchu or hike the Inca Trail during that time, expect to get wet, and don't miss out on bringing a coat because it rains every single day. (Also, be aware that the Inca Trail is closed every February for maintenance.)

As for the period between June and August, it is the high season for the arrival of tourists traveling to Peru, and you will find hotels and tourist attractions very crowded with them.

The best time to travel, then, is April and May, when everything is green, cloudless, and at the same time a few crowds under blue skies.
