November to March is generally the best time for tours in Benin, as the weather is cooler, drier, and more predictable, making it ideal for outdoor activities and photography. The annual Voodoo Festival happens on 10 January each year. The FROST team is privy to 'insider' information about special pre- and post-festival celebrations.
April-May can still be good for photography, but the heat can be challenging.

Lima, the vibrant capital of Peru, is a dynamic city where colonial charm meets coastal drama. On your Peru photographic tour, you’ll explore its UNESCO-listed historic center, capturing grand cathedrals, intricate balconies, and rich street life. Along the Pacific cliffs, scenes of crashing waves and sunsets create striking coastal compositions, while the bohemian districts of Miraflores and Barranco pulse with color, murals, and creativity—ideal for vibrant urban photography in Lima.
In contrast, Arequipa—the “White City”—offers a different kind of elegance. Framed by snow-capped volcanoes and built almost entirely from white volcanic stone (sillar), its baroque facades and sun-drenched plazas are a visual treat. With its blend of dramatic natural surroundings and colonial detail, Arequipa photography is a rewarding highlight on any Peru photo adventure.
In the heart of the Andes, the Sacred Valley invites you to explore its ancient wonders. Iconic Sacred Valley photography moments await at towering Inca ruins like Ollantaytambo and Pisac, where intricate stonework and expansive terraces are set against breathtaking mountain backdrops. As golden light illuminates these archaeological sites during sunrise and sunset, you’ll capture the rich essence of history in stunning photographs.
Beyond the ruins, the vibrant local markets and Quechua traditions offer intimate cultural encounters, perfect for those seeking cultural photography in Peru. The Sacred Valley’s unique blend of ancient history and living traditions creates a truly unforgettable experience on any Peru photography tour.
Lake Titicaca, the world’s highest navigable lake, offers an unforgettable journey into a timeless way of life. During your Lake Titicaca photography tour, you’ll capture the iconic floating Uros Islands, where reed houses and traditional canoes reflect centuries-old customs. As you visit Taquile and Amantaní, the islanders’ warm hospitality and handwoven textiles add a cultural richness to your photographs.
Whether photographing the breathtaking landscapes or the portraits of locals, photography in Peru takes on a deeper meaning at Lake Titicaca, where the fusion of stunning scenery and indigenous heritage creates an unparalleled experience.
The Peruvian Amazon, covering over 60% of Peru, is a vast, untamed wilderness teeming with extraordinary biodiversity and rich Indigenous cultures. On a Peruvian Amazon photo tour, you’ll capture exotic wildlife, including jaguars, pink river dolphins, giant otters, and countless bird species, all set against the backdrop of towering ceiba trees and winding blackwater rivers. Whether exploring by canoe, trekking through the dense rainforest, or listening to the symphony of the jungle at night, photography in the Amazon offers an immersive, unforgettable experience. This pristine ecosystem provides endless opportunities for wildlife photography in Peru, where every moment is a chance to document one of the most biodiverse places on Earth.
Rainbow Mountain, or Vinicunca, is the most famous of Peru’s Rainbow Mountains, but its lesser-known counterparts, Palccoyo and Pallay Punchu, are equally mesmerizing. On a Rainbow Mountain photo tour, you’ll explore these stunning landscapes, shaped by millions of years of mineral sedimentation, which have created breathtaking natural formations with vivid, painterly hues. Beyond their striking beauty, these mountains hold deep spiritual and cultural significance for local communities. Visiting them offers not only the chance to photograph one of nature’s most vibrant spectacles but also an opportunity to connect with Peru’s rich Andean heritage. As you observe the snowy Apu (sacred mountain) contrasting with the red, turquoise, and yellow colours of Rainbow Mountain, you’ll also encounter llamas, alpacas, and vicunas in their natural habitat—some of the finest wool producers in the world.
