Has anyone been to Peru recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Apps or platforms to use
I was there 6 months ago and had a decent time. Wondering if things have changed.
Trying to decide between this and Germany.
Cheers

Adding my experience: scene has improved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: some old spots closed.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

First time was good but could have been better. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

Word of caution — watch out for taxi scams at the airport. Other than that, great destination.

I was there in March and prices were about average. Spent about $100/day all-in.
My tip: midweek is much better.
