Peru tours in May 2025

May is a brilliant month to explore Peru before the high-season crowds arrive. Venture into the mighty Amazon in search of monkeys and medicinal plants, learn how to make traditional chocolate or corn beer with locals in Sacred Valley, or munch and sip your way from Lima to Cusco on a food adventure. Big on hiking? May is one of the best months to hit the trails in Colca Canyon or conquer the iconic Inca Trail to Machu Picchu when everything's still lush and green from the recent rains.
