Lima’s city centre can be challenging to get around for tourists and travellers. The high levels of traffic and erratic, aggressive drivers make navigating the city by car a tough job. Walking around the city is a good way to find hidden gems, but it is important to remember that pedestrians don’t have the right of way - so be careful! Lima’s bus systems are also chaotic, so it might be best to use the Lima Metro. Trains operate every 6-10 minutes from 6am to 10pm. You must purchase a Tarjeta card to use the trains.
Lima’s mild to dry climate mean this destination is great to visit all year round. December to March are the hottest months and are ideal for surfing and sunbathing.
The winter months (from June to October) are seen as the off-season as the cooler temperatures, high humidity and dark skies set in. However, there are many great events and festivals that take place during these months including the Fiesta de Santa Rosa de Lima, a celebration of the patron saint of Lima.
Jorge Chavez International Airport began life as Lima-Callao International Airport in 1960. It was renamed in 1965 after the famous Peruvian aviator Jorge Chavez and has been serving international passengers ever since. Flights make their way to Jorge Chávez International Airport from a wide selection of destinations including Miami, Sao Paulo, Mexico and Madrid. There are no direct flights from Australia, so most Australian travellers make their way to the Peruvian city via destinations such as Los Angeles, Atlanta and Houston.
