- Pack for all types of weather, as temperatures can vary greatly, especially in the Andes. Layers are key, and don't forget a good pair of walking shoes or hiking boots.
- Learn a few basic phrases in Spanish or the local indigenous language (e.g., Quechua) to enhance your travel experience and show respect for the local culture.
- Try local dishes and beverages, such as ceviche, lomo saltado, and pisco sour. Peru is a food lover's paradise, and the country's diverse culinary traditions are not to be missed.
- Be cautious when using ATMs, especially at night. Stick to ATMs located inside banks or shopping centers, and be aware of your surroundings.
