Peru is a country that truly has it all: mountains, deserts, beaches, cities, lakes, Inca ruins, etc etc etc. There is so much diversity to explore that it can be a bit overwhelming to conquer it all. So to ease your worries, I have put together a list of all my personal recommendations in each must-visit destination from North to South. I spent two months backpacking Peru and I curated this guide purely based on places I have actually been (all 116 of them!) and would advise to go. I also include all of my favorite restaurants, cafes, markets, and bars in each area. At the end of the guide, I include helpful tips n tricks like how to avoid common scams, locals apps, and which food to try. This guide is all you'll need to have the absolute best trip to Peru.

Destinations: Lima & Huaraz I've included tips and recommendations for transportation around Lima, places to eat & drink, places to remote work (with wifi speeds), places to shop, places to get health & beauty services, and places to explore. I've also included a few recommendations for Huaraz as well. There are 58 recommendations included with an interactive map to help you plan your adventure. These are mostly personal recommendations from my 1-month stay. Updated June 2024
