What to see and do in Peru in 12 days?<\/strong> I know, 12 days to visit Peru is very little, but it gives you enough time to see the essential parts of Peru, but you will have to choose between the different options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ll tell you about my itinerary, and I hope you will find it useful!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my case, for example, I wanted to go to Arequipa and tour the Colca Valley and the canyon of the same name. So I\u2019ll tell you everything below.<\/ins><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2-day in Lima<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I arrived in Peru in the rainy season on February 2. I entered the country through Lima, as flights from Madrid were direct and cheaper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I remember the humidity hitting me just coming down from the plane, terrible, 100 % humidity, and I don\u2019t think I am exaggerating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had hired, with the accommodation, the transport to the hotel because it was supposedly cheaper, but when I arrived my taxi driver wasn’t there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coming in with euros was complicated; no one wanted to exchange with them; they said dollars, yes, but no euros. I called the hotel, and they didn\u2019t give me an answer. So I got myself a cab and haggled; I got a ride for 15 bucks. (Miraflores is quite far from the airport)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The taxi thing was an adventure; the car was ramshackle. The taxi driver stopped halfway in a neighborhood that didn\u2019t cool me at all, and to top it off, his phone card didn’t work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He did not know where my accommodation was, and he called himself to ask what height (of an important street) he was, he was quite friendly and in the end, I reached my destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the taxi adventure, when I arrived at the hotel, the receptionist told me that there was no water until 6 am due to the \u201chuaicos\u201d (avalanches that are produced by the heavy rains). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least I could leave my stuff, get some rest, and meet a friend from Madrid who lives in Lima right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
