Current pricing for Peru:

Short Time: Budget $33-84, Mid $107-188, Premium $152+
Long Time/Overnight: $145-389
Massage with extras: $21-129

These are approximate ranges as of early 2026. Prices vary by area, provider quality, and negotiation. Tourist areas tend to be more expensive.

Tipping is expected — 10-20% is standard.

Best value: local areas away from tourist strips.

I was there in January and prices were about average. Spent about $50/day all-in.

My tip: avoid weekends.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.
