Winter travel is here! Check out this 11-day itinerary for Peru and more, and enjoy the unique scenery of South America without the crowds! . 🛤️Itinerary: Day 1: Arrive in Lima and start your South American journey. A private car will pick you up and take you to your hotel to rest. Day 2–3: Visit Lima's historical sites, such as Plaza de Armas and the Government Palace, then fly to Iquitos and explore the Amazon rainforest. Day 4–5: Take a boat tour of the Amazon River in Iquitos, fish for piranhas, see pink dolphins, visit the Yagua indigenous village, and get up close and personal with baby sloths.

Day 9–10: Cross the Andes to Puno, enjoy the beautiful snow-capped mountains and grasslands, take a boat tour of Lake Titicaca, and visit the Uros floating islands. Day 11: End your South American journey and return home by private car.🌺 . Travel Essentials: 🧳Traveling to Peru and more? Don't forget these! 📞SIM Card: Don't forget to buy a local SIM card. Claro is a good choice in Peru, with plenty of data and smooth calls. If you're traveling to multiple countries, consider buying a multi-country SIM card or data package for convenience and savings. 🔌Plug Adapter & Charger: Peru's plug type is different from ours, so remember to bring a plug adapter. Also, bring a few extra chargers and cables so you don't miss out on the beautiful scenery when your phone or camera runs out of battery. 📜Documents: Bring your passport and visa, and keep your ID card handy. If you have any special documents, such as a student ID or teacher ID, bring them along. You might be able to save some money. Oh, and don't forget your driver's license and international driver's license if you plan to drive. 👕Clothing: In December, Peru has a pleasant climate, but the temperature difference between day and night is large. Bring a few light long-sleeved shirts, a windbreaker, and a raincoat. For shoes, bring sneakers and hiking boots. Comfort is important. Don't forget a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect your skin. 💊Medicine: Bring medicine for your stomach, colds, and band-aids. Also, bring mosquito repellent and spray, as there are many mosquitoes in Peru. If you get carsick easily, bring some motion sickness medicine. 💰Money: Bring cash and credit cards, as some places in Peru may not accept cards. Also, exchange local currency in advance so you don't get caught off guard. Of course, keep an eye on your wallet so you don't lose it. In short, prepare well before you travel, bring these essentials, and your trip to Peru and more will be smoother and more enjoyable!🎉 . The Peru trip is over, and you've seen the sights of many countries. Every step is a new discovery. See you next time!
