For intrepid parents planning an adventurous Peru family trip, this is my comprehensive guide to traveling Peru with kids.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Traveling Peru with kids is an adventure of a lifetime. The country is a treasure trove of ancient sites and indigenous villages, packed with so much dramatic mountainscapes and immersive experiences that intrepid kids would absolutely love! There\u2019s plenty of adventure to be had with kids: Wander the ancient ruins of Machu Picchu<\/a>, swoosh down sand dunes at Huacachina, mingle with alpacas, tread the thousand-year-old cobblestones of Cusco, and hike through the stunning Sacred Valley<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u00a0We first traveled Peru<\/a> 15 years ago, before we had kids. This time around, we watched Kaleya fall in love with Peru, just as we did. Peru is excellent for parents who love traveling to intrepid destinations and don\u2019t necessarily fancy a beach vacation now that they\u2019ve got kids.<\/p>\n In the last 10 years, Peru has developed decent tourism infrastructure, with excellent highways, beautiful lodges to stay at, and good restaurants everywhere. It\u2019s also just a short 5-hour flight from Miami and it\u2019s on the same time zone as New York. It gives your kids a taste of somewhere completely different, without making them fly halfway across the globe.<\/p>\n Peru is not too far most of the US, with Miami<\/a> being the launchpad for flights to the capital city Lima<\/a>. Jorge Chavez Airport<\/span><\/a> is the main gateway to Peru; flights to other parts of Peru all depart from Lima so you\u2019ll need to fly through to the capital city regardless.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n LATAM has year-round flights from\u00a0Los Angeles, Miami, New York City to Lima, for as cheap as $300 return. Search for Flights to Lima<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n There are also direct flights from Mexico City, Cancun, Buenos Aires and Quito to Lima. We flew from Cancun to Lima<\/a> for just US$300 return. From Europe, expect to pay around $600 return. The cheapest flights are from Madrid to Lima<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Most of Peru is mountainous, which means it gets chilly even in summer. The best time to visit Peru is during the dry season, which runs from April to October<\/b>. During this time, there is little rainfall and temperatures are milder, making it ideal for outdoor activities.<\/p>\n We\u2019ve traveled Peru in April and July, and found the warm to be always sunny, warmish, and perfect on both times. Keep in mind that June to August is peak tourist season in Peru, so expect crowds and higher prices during these months. November to April is the rainy season, temperatures are warmer but wetter. Be sure to pack waterproof gear!<\/p>\n Peru is a massive and extremely diverse country. It\u2019s jam-packed with bucket-list-worthy sights, from the Andes Mountains to the Amazon Rainforest<\/a>, Ica Desert to Nazca lines.<\/p>\n To see the country\u2019s highlights, I would recommend spending at least two weeks in Peru<\/strong>. On our first backpacking trip in South America, we spent a month in Peru and felt like we barely scraped the surface.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n And, as you probably know, traveling with kids<\/a> requires more time and flexibility. If it\u2019s your first time in Peru and you\u2019ve got smaller kids, I suggest planning at least 3 weeks in Peru so you can see the country at a relaxing pace. Below are two Peru itinerary ideas<\/a> for those planning to travel Peru with kids.<\/p>\n In addition to the above itinerary, we will add on\u2026<\/p>\n As Peru is a big country, you\u2019ll most likely need to use a combination of transport modes to get around. On our first trip in Peru we didn\u2019t fly at all and took long-distance buses from one point to another. But for those traveling Peru with kids, that wouldn\u2019t be a practical option.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Travel distances can be long in Peru, and flying can cut down travel time substantially. For instance, you can fly from Lima to Cusco in just 1 hour; while the bus would take around 18 hours.\u00a0 On our recent trip, we flew from Lima to Cusco and then rented a car to explore the Sacred Valley from there.<\/p>\n Flights from Lima to Cusco<\/a> are affordable, starting from US$50 return. You can also find flights to Arequipa and Iquitos at affordable prices too. Check for flights here.<\/a><\/p>\n The easiest way to get around Peru is by car rental. We rented a car from Lima and Cusco and found it an excellent way to travel around Peru with kids. Our car rental in Lima<\/a> was very cheap, around US$20 per day, with the pickup and drop-off across the road from the airport. We always book car rental on Discover Cars<\/a>, as they\u2019ve consistently given us the best rates and customer service.<\/span><\/p>\n Yes, driving in Peru requires some grit and it\u2019s not for the faint-hearted (especially when navigating the steep mountain roads of the Sacred Valley<\/a>) \u2014 but if you have experience driving abroad, it is doable and definitely makes for an adventure! <\/span>The main things to watch out for are reckless Peruvian drivers.<\/p>\n Also be prepared for corrupt police! We actually encountered an officer who asked us for a bribe just because we were not using headlights during the day. We ended up paying him US$30 and hightailed out of there.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Peru Hop<\/a> is a popular way of getting around Peru \u2014 the bus company has designated stops and you can get tickets for a certain duration and hop to and from as many points as you like. Alternatively, TEPSA and Cruz del Sur are public bus companies that offer services around Peru. On our first trip to Peru, we took the bus everywhere and it worked out fine.<\/p>\n For those who don\u2019t drive but prefer your own transport, Taxidatum<\/a> is a useful service that allows you to make a private driver reservation online. Taxidatum can pick you up at the airport, hotel, or anywhere. They\u2019ll wait for you as well as follow along with you during the rest of your journey. The trip between Cusco and Ollantaytambo cost roughly US$37.<\/p>\n Like other countries in South America, Peru has been experiencing many anti-government protests in recent years. During our recent visit, we didn\u2019t witness any protests or riots on the streets, but we did experience the paro nacional, <\/i>nationwide strikes that caused all transport and businesses to shut for a few days.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We were not allowed to leave our hotel in Ollantaytambo for 2 days as the road was blocked and our hotel staff said it wasn\u2019t safe. Our train to Machu Picchu<\/a> got cancelled too, but we managed to rebook them for another day. Some travelers we met weren\u2019t so lucky and had to fly home without visiting Machu Picchu (imagine that)! Keep yourself informed about the situation in Peru and try to add in some flexibility to your schedule.<\/span><\/p>\n I personally I feel that Peru is a safe place to travel, especially if you\u2019re traveling along the well trodden tourist trail. The main safety hazard is road traffic as bus drivers can be quite reckless. On our first trip to Machu Picchu 15 years ago, the driver was going so fast on those windy roads in the Sacred Valley<\/a>, that we felt that we would swerve off the road any minute. Try to rent a car or hire a private driver if possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We traveled Peru with our 8-year-old daughter and she absolutely loved it! She said Peru\u2019s one of her favorite countries in the world (and she\u2019s been to 54 countries to date). She\u2019s an adventurous girl who loves hiking\/climbing and doesn\u2019t mind roughing it in dingy hostels or dodgy bus rides. And she likes variety (like me) so a diverse country like Peru definitely gets her stamp of approval.<\/p>\n That said, I don\u2019t think Peru is suitable for kids of all ages. Traveling Peru with babies and toddlers for example can be challenging as you\u2019ll be doing a lot of hiking and walking in the ruins and towns. The infrastructure doesn\u2019t quite support that (eg. you won\u2019t find facilities like diaper-changing stations in bathrooms)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n I personally think it\u2019s easy to travel around Peru independently. But if you don\u2019t speak Spanish or never traveled much with kids before, your best bet is to book a tour package. There are lots of responsible tour operators that run educational and immersive tours around Peru. G Adventures<\/strong> for example runs a 10-day Peru family experience<\/a> that brings a small group of families from Lima to the Peruvian Amazon<\/a> and Machu Picchu.<\/p>\n Alternatively, you could book accommodation and flights yourself, and take day tours from your base. These day tours typically include a local guide, transportation, and entrance fees to archaeological sites. For instance, you can fly to Cusco and take tours to Machu Picchu<\/a> and the Sacred Valley<\/a> from there. I usually book my day excursions on GetYourGuide<\/a> as they have the biggest selection and lowest rates, plus free cancellations.<\/span><\/p>\n It\u2019s important to have travel insurance whether you\u2019re traveling Peru for weeks or years. Safety Wing<\/span><\/a> is the most popular travel insurance company for COVID19-coverage. They cover kids for free as long as you\u2019ve got a plan with them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n I use their Nomad Insurance plan<\/span><\/a>, which covers COVID-19 as any other illness as long as it was not contracted before the coverage start date. Refer to my travel insurance guide<\/span><\/a> for more details.<\/span><\/p>\n A major and valid concern parents have is whether kids will acclimatize to the high altitudes in many parts of Peru. Cusco, for example, is located at 11,000 feet (3,399m) above sea level.<\/p>\n When you fly into Cusco from Lima, there\u2019s a risk of getting altitude sickness. The night we landed in Cusco, I couldn\u2019t sleep well with the lack of oxygen, and woke up to a throbbing headache. After taking Acetazolamide (or Diamox) and coca tea, I spent the whole day in bed and felt much better by the evening. Thankfully, my daughter and husband were both absolutely fine.<\/p>\n The best way to avoid altitude sickness is to ascend gradually. Head straight to the Sacred Valley when you arrive in Cusco; this can help you acclimatize as Sacred Valley<\/a> is lower in altitude than Cusco<\/a>. Alternatively, travel overland by bus (which takes 22 hours) from Lima to Cusco, making stops at Huacachina and Nazca. That way, you\u2019ll be adjusting to the high altitude slowly and thus prevent the onslaught of altitude sickness.<\/p>\n Tips to Cope with Altitude Sickness:<\/b><\/p>\n Altitude sickness can hit anyone, regardless of age or fitness level. Symptoms of altitude sickness include shortness of breath, dizziness, headaches, stomachaches, even vomiting. Here are some things I learned:<\/p>\n The official languages in Peru are Spanish and Quechua. Speaking Spanish<\/a> will of course be very helpful, but you\u2019ll be fine without it. As tourism is huge in Peru, many people working in the travel industry speak English.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If you are traveling independently or driving, road signs in Peru are in both Spanish and English. Peruvians are generally friendly and helpful even if you don\u2019t speak Spanish. Learning a few simple words in Spanish such as Hola<\/i> (hello), gracias<\/i> (thank you), and por favor<\/i> (please) will go a long way.<\/p>\n Peru has decent tourism infrastructure and there\u2019s a wide range of accommodation in most parts, particularly along the tourist trail. Accommodation prices are very affordable: budget travelers can usually get a bed in a clean, comfy hostel for less than US$15\/ per night, while mid-range hotels have family rooms that are as cheap as US$30\/night. In Lima, the capital city, there\u2019s no shortage of modern, swanky Airbnbs that cost approximately US$40\/night.<\/p>\n Here are my recommendations for family-friendly hotels in Peru:<\/p>\n We booked a spacious and comfortable 3-bedroom apartment<\/a> in Lima\u2019s upscale Miraflores neighborhood and couldn\u2019t believe how cheap it was. At just $45\/night, it was incredible value for money. Just steps from restaurants and supermarkets, the apartment has an amazing location and functional features. If you\u2019ve got a bigger family, check out this gorgeous 4-room apartment<\/a>.<\/p>\n In the tiny oasis town of Huacachina, you\u2019ll find a small selection of guesthouses, backpackers hostels, and hotels. We ended up returning to the hotel we stayed at 15 years ago that has a fantastic pool with the dunes right behind it and an awesome restaurant. Check rates here.<\/a><\/p>\n The main reason I booked Tariq boutique hotel<\/a> was the view. Right from our bed, we were treated to panoramic views of the city: terracotta roofs juxtaposed against bell towers and backdropped by mountains. It\u2019s a climb to reach here from the city center, but well worth it for that view. Check rates here.<\/a><\/p>\n We stayed at this countryside hotel for most of our time in the Sacred Valley. At a 20-minute drive from Ollantaymbo, the hotel\u2019s location may be inconvenient for those without a car, but we loved being surrounded by the mountains. The hotel has quality furnishings, an excellent recreation room with boardgames and pool table, as well as mountain bikes that you can use for free! Check rates here.<\/a><\/p>\n Lauded as the best hotel in Sacred Valley, the\u00a0Tambo del Inka<\/span><\/a> sits right along the Urubamba River and has a private train station to Machu Picchu.\u00a0Urubamba is a big town and doesn\u2019t have the charm of Ollantaytambo, but it has a central location in the Sacred Valley. This is the only hotel in the list that we didn\u2019t stay at, but my friend highly recommends this place. Check rates here.<\/a><\/p>\n There\u2019s a surprisingly good range of hotels at Machu Picchu pueblo\u00a0(Aguascalientes), the gateway town to Machu Picchu. This time we treated ourselves to an upscale hotel as we knew how tiring a day at Machu Picchu was. Having plush beds and strong air-conditioning definitely made a difference. Waking up to the sounds of the raging river and views of the misty mountains outside our window was a bonus. Check rates here.<\/a><\/p>\n Here are some of my favorite things to do in Peru with kids:<\/p>\n There are actually plenty of things to do in Lima<\/a>, especially for the little ones. Lima\u2019s waterfront boardwalk is a glorious walkway that winds it way on the clifftops of Miraflores, alongside the Pacific Ocean. The boardwalk is also home to a number of restaurants and cafes, as well as some parks and playgrounds. It\u2019s the best spot in Lima to catch the sunset.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n I recommend starting your walk at the Parque del Amor<\/a>, a park dedicated to love. The park is home to a number of sculptures and murals, as well as a beautiful view of the city. Then make a stop at Beso Franc\u00e9s Creper\u00eda<\/a> for a sweet treat (your kids will love it!) and watch the surfers ride the chilly waves beneath you. Head north and continue until reach Larcomar, a modern outdoor mall perched on the clifftops overlooking the sea.<\/p>\n Adventurers alert! On the Miraflores boardwalk, you can sign your adventurous kids up for a paragliding experience and watch them soar from the craggy rocks of Miraflores. The city and ocean are stunning, and it\u2019s an experience your kids won\u2019t soon forget. They\u2019ll of course be gliding in tandem with an instructor. It costs US$76 and the minimum age is 5. Book here!<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Lima\u2019s most popular beach, Playa El Malecon, lies at the base of the Miraflores cliffs. The waves here are ideal for surfing, and the beach is lined with restaurants and bars, making it a fantastic place to spend a day in the sun. My daughter loves to surf, but we didn\u2019t try it here as the water in the Pacific can be very cold!<\/p>\n One of our favorite places in Peru<\/a>, Huacachina is an exceptional desert oasis at\u00a0the edge of the\u00a0Atacama desert. Huacachina is centered around a lagoon lined with lush vegetation \u2014 all located in the driest desert in the world. Snuggled between the biggest sand dunes in South America,\u00a0it is the only natural oasis on the continent<\/b>.<\/p>\n Jump on a dune buggy for a thrilling (vertiginous) ride up and down the dunes, go sand boarding or simply let your kids run free, they\u2019ll absolutely love it! Huacachina is a 4-hour drive from the capital city Lima. We rented a car and drove there ourselves, which was relatively easy and cheap.<\/p>\n Located off the coast of Paracas, Islas Ballestas is a group of islets brimming with endemic birds and wildlife. It\u2019s lauded as the \u201cpoor man\u2019s Galapagos\u201d, and offers an accessible way to see some of the diverse eco-system of South America without the hefty cost. The Ballestas might not boast the biodiversity of the Galapagos Islands<\/a>, but a trip comes at a fraction of the price and is a real highlight in southern Peru, especially for kids.<\/p>\n As the capital of the Inca empire, Cusco was known as the \u201cnavel of the world\u201d. A visit to this ancient city and its nearby ruins will transport you back to the mystical Andean civilization.\u00a0It\u2019s a must-see when traveling Peru with kids as they\u2019ll see pages from their history textbook come alive here.<\/p>\n Start at the Plaza de las Armas, the main square of the city. Some of the best places to visit in Cusco include the Qorikancha Sun Temple, the Museo Inka, the Museo de Arte Pre-Colombino (MAP) and the San Pedro Market. Our favorite area in Cusco is San Blas, a bohemian enclave on the hilltops with narrow cobblestoned streets and spectacular views.
