For Indian citizens planning an adventure to Peru, a visa is indeed a necessary prerequisite, offering a generous maximum stay of 180 days to explore its wonders. With two primary visa types available—tourist and working holiday—you can tailor your visit to your specific travel goals, remembering that the application fee for your chosen visa represents a small investment for such an enriching experience. Given that flights from India to Peru often involve at least one layover, typically in Europe or the Middle East, planning for a longer travel time is wise, and you'll want to be prepared for the 9.5-hour time difference between Delhi and Lima.
