Peru tourism sector developments

Overview

The Peruvian tourism sector is characterized by both significant cultural attractions and ongoing operational challenges. Major destinations such as Machu Picchu, the Sacred Valley, and Cusco remain central to travel itineraries, offering archaeological sites and diverse landscapes ranging from the Andes to the Amazon.

However, the industry faces regulatory and informality issues. The Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism (MINCETUR) is working to address concerns regarding informal adventure tourism on hiking routes like the Inca Trail and Salkantay. Other management efforts include resolving conflicts over vehicle use in Huacachina and improving service organization in areas such as Rainbow Mountain and the Cordillera Blanca.
