July and August are the peak tourist months, so if you're looking for a more peaceful experience, consider visiting in May, June, or September. The weather is still good during these months, but there are fewer tourists.
October to March is the wet season, and it's not recommended to visit Machu Picchu during this time. The trails can be muddy and slippery, and there's a high chance of rain.
Here are some additional tips for visiting Machu Picchu:
- Book your tickets in advance, especially if you're planning to visit during the peak tourist season.
- Arrive early in the morning to avoid the crowds.
- Bring comfortable shoes for walking on the uneven terrain.
- Pack sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses to protect yourself from the sun.
- Bring a camera to capture the amazing views.
