Lima, Peru

Why travel to Lima in September?

  • This is the region’s dry season and with kids back in school, less people are traveling at this time so there aren’t a lot of crowds. 
  • During this time, Lima’s temperatures are mild, between the 60s and mid-70s, so it isn’t too hot or cold for travelers – it also allows people to visit other places in Peru including Machu Picchu or even the Amazon.
  • Lima is known as the Gastronomy capital of South America, so it’s the best time to visit for food because the Mistura Food Festival takes place in early to mid-September.
