Visited Peru for 7 days. Enjoyable experience. Scene is improved. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $67/day. Best part: friendliness.
Overall: 8.5/10. One of my favourites.
AMA.
Is Peru worth visiting?

Did you use the local sites or find girls at clubs?

Did you feel safe walking around at night?

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try going midweek next time.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the new laws came in. Current prices are higher than what's described here.

I'd also recommend downloading Google Translate before you go. Essential.

Adding my experience from February.
The scene has changed a bit since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since last year. Current prices are actually lower than what's described here.
