I am planning a trip to Peru and am wondering when the best time to visit Machu Picchu is. I am looking for the perfect combination of good weather, fewer crowds, and the best experience overall. I know that the dry season is from May to October, so I am leaning towards this time frame. However, I am also aware that the rainy season can bring cooler temperatures and fewer crowds. I am looking for advice from people who have been to Machu Picchu and can provide insight into what the best season to visit is.
