I visited Peru 🇵🇪 and a I just loved everything I loved and experienced.
Due to COVID-19 for travel to Peru right now you will need to be fully vaccinated or to simple do a PCR test 72hours before your arrival (just be careful this rules are constantly changing).
Peru is a big country in South America with a unique culture, fun people and good (but specific) food.
We flew to Lima (country’s capital) from Oporto with a stopover in Madrid. It’s a 12h flight with Iberia Airline.
We bought a package that included a local guide to show us the best places and spots.
When we just land we collected our luggage and meet our driver that was waiting for us with a board bearing our names. He drove from the airport to our hotel (we stayed at Jose Antonio Hotel at the city centre) so we can drop our bags and start immediately the tour.
Lima is the most populated city in Peru, with a big cost line and never rains there due to its unique micro clime!
We started to visit el Parque del Amor (Love’s park) known for its garden benches covered with small pieces of different tiles forming a pattern; and for the big sculpture right in the middle of the big human figures kissing each other. The goal is to promote love and the in love people in Peru 🥰
Then we just walked through the city streets discovering local stores and restaurants. People are very kind and we felt always really safe.
We found on Kennedy Park (a big green area in the middle of the city heart) a place where the local people join to dance latina music with each other. A real South America experience. There was young people and older people from the 8’s to the 80’s and there you can feel the love, friendship and union on the air.
In Peru everyone is authentic and you can really fell this authenticity!
Well… this was just the beginning of our trip. There are too many tips to share with you. Would you like to live this trip with me again ?
I will write you everything soon
