When packing for a family trip to Peru, consider versatility and comfort.

Ensure that each family member has sturdy walking shoes and a lighter pair of sandals. Include necessary items such as a first aid kit, snacks for quick energy boosts, and entertainment to keep the kids entertained while traveling. 

Also, keep copies of important documents readily available to help streamline any travel processes. This preparation will ensure that your family can experience all of Peru's wonders in comfort and safety.

Traveling to Peru with children can be safe and enjoyable if properly planned and executed. While Peru has incredible cultural and natural attractions for families, it is critical to research your destination, ensure access to medical care, follow basic safety precautions, and stay informed about any travel advisories or local conditions.

When children travel to high-altitude destinations, they are at risk of altitude sickness, also known as acute mountain sickness (AMS). Symptoms may include a headache, nausea, fatigue, and difficulty breathing. It is critical for parents to be aware of the symptoms and take preventive measures, such as gradual acclimatization, staying hydrated, and avoiding strenuous activities upon arrival at high elevations. Consultation with a healthcare provider prior to the trip can also provide useful information on how to manage altitude sickness in children.

Children under the age of three can enter for free, while those aged three to seventeen can receive a discount on their tickets.
