🎯 Open terraces and outdoor markets — best season for al fresco dining Spring marks the start of the good season in Peru. Temperatures rise (23°C) and tourists have not yet arrived en masse. Rain is virtually absent (4% of days) — ideal for planning without a backup. A good balance between weather and crowds, even if February (8.7/10) remains theoretically better.
