Not Turkey and Not Egypt: Where to Fly in March 2026 for Sun and Emotions 0 10

Tourists looking for warm weather and fewer crowds at the beginning of spring should consider Peru. This destination has been recognized as one of the best places in the world to travel in 2026, and March is one of the most attractive months for a trip, writes Express.

It is noted that while many popular resorts remain cool or crowded with tourists during this period, Peru offers both warm weather and impressive beaches, along with significantly fewer visitors.

In March, temperatures in certain regions of the country reach around +27°C, especially along the northern coast. According to travel experts from Rough Guides, in coastal towns like Punta Sal, warmth can reach 25 degrees, and in some places even higher. The capital city, Lima, also remains warm, with temperatures around +26°C in March.

The article explains why Peru's popularity is growing. Recently, experts from Lonely Planet ranked this country first in their list of the 25 best travel destinations for 2026. Among other things, they highly praised Peru's landscapes, culture, and biodiversity.

Experts also noted that Peru attracts tourists seeking a deeper experience than just a beach holiday.

The author writes that there is also a practical reason why March is a good time to travel. This is when the rainy season in the mountains and jungles is coming to an end, making it one of the calmest months for tourism.

According to experts from Audley Travel, the number of visitors in March is significantly lower compared to the dry season, which lasts from April to October. This means fewer crowds at major tourist attractions, particularly Machu Picchu, lower hotel prices, and more tranquil cities.

Another major plus mentioned in the article is the variety of activities in Peru. Tourists can explore the ancient streets of Cusco, embark on multi-day hikes through the picturesque Andes, or travel deep into the Amazon jungle, where excursions for wildlife watching and river journeys are organized from centers like Iquitos.

The northern beaches offer calm seas, warm weather, and significantly fewer people compared to many popular resorts during the same time of year.

The cultural aspect of the country is equally strong. Travelers can attend traditional festivals, sample local cuisine, learn about the history of indigenous peoples, and visit museums that tell the story of Peru — from the Inca Empire to modern times.
