    Local transport

    Get around the city with these convenient transport options.

    App ride-hailing (Uber, DiDi, Cabify, inDrive)

    Estimated costApprox. PEN 55-90
    Best forJorge Chávez International Airport (LIM) to Miraflores or San Isidro

    Labeled estimate for a standard car; airport pickup zones add a small surcharge. Confirm the plate and driver name in the app before getting in, and note that surge pricing applies at peak times.

    Best forJorge Chávez International Airport (LIM) to Miraflores or San Isidro

    Labeled estimate for a prepaid official airport taxi, more expensive than an app but useful if you have no data on arrival. Buy inside the arrivals hall, never from touts outside.

    Airport Express Lima bus

    Estimated costApprox. PEN 25-30 one way
    Best forJorge Chávez International Airport (LIM) to 3

    Labeled estimate for the official airport shuttle serving Miraflores hotels; check the current timetable and stop list before relying on it for a late arrival.

    Labeled estimate; agree the fare before getting in and avoid unmarked cars at night. App-based rides are easier to trace and usually safer for visitors.

    Weather

    December is early summer on the Peruvian coast. Lima days typically run around 24-27 C with nights near 18-20 C, high humidity and a strong chance of grey morning garúa in sea-facing districts such as Miraflores and Barranco, clearing to sunshine later in the day. Measurable rain is rare but not impossible. These are climatological bands, not a forecast: check a short-range forecast in the final week and pack light layers plus a compact umbrella.

    Plan for the climate

    Check temperatures and pack accordingly

    Venue connectivity

    Peru's mobile market is served by Claro, Movistar, Entel and Bitel. 4G/LTE coverage is good across Miraflores, San Isidro, Barranco and the historic centre, with 5G available in parts of Lima. A prepaid SIM can be bought with your passport at Jorge Chávez airport or in city stores, and eSIM plans bought before departure are the simplest option for a short congress trip. Hotel and cafe Wi-Fi is standard; the congress venue may run a separate network, so collect the password at the registration desk. Peru uses 220 V at 60 Hz with Type A, B and C sockets, so bring a universal adapter and check dual-voltage chargers.

    Cultural notes

    Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.

    Language and greetings

    Spanish is the working language of Lima and of the congress. Peruvians are courteous and fairly formal in first meetings: a handshake with eye contact works for both men and women, and the polite forms usted and buenos días are appreciated. English is common in hotels and among specialists, less so in taxis and shops.

    Dress and congress etiquette

    A medical congress in Lima is a formal professional setting: suits or smart business dress for speakers and industry teams, smart casual for delegates. Sessions tend to start close to the published time, but coffee breaks and the exhibition hall are social and unhurried, so build in time for conversations rather than trying to leave immediately.

    Meals and tipping

    Lunch is the main meal and often runs from 12:30 to 15:00, with dinner late by North American or European standards. Restaurants frequently add a voluntary propina of around 10 percent; check the bill before adding a tip. Taxis and ride-hailing do not expect tips, though rounding up an app fare is common.

    Water, food and altitude

    Lima sits at sea level, so altitude is not an issue in the capital, but tap water is generally not drunk untreated and bottled water is inexpensive and everywhere. Ceviche and street food are part of the trip for many delegates; choose busy places and be cautious on the day before a presentation if you have a sensitive stomach.

    Safety and getting around at night

    Miraflores, San Isidro and Barranco are the most comfortable districts for visitors, with busy streets and many restaurants. Use app-based ride-hailing after dark rather than hailing street taxis, keep phones out of sight on busy roads, and ask your hotel which blocks they recommend for an evening walk.

    Weather habits and timing

    Limeños dress in layers because garúa mornings can feel cool and damp before the sun breaks through. Traffic shapes the day more than the weather: the 7-9 am and 6-9 pm peaks can double a short journey, so schedule meetings and airport transfers outside those windows where possible.

    Money and payments

    The currency is the Peruvian sol (PEN). Cards are widely accepted in hotels, restaurants and the congress venue, but small shops, market stalls and some taxis still prefer cash. Withdraw soles from bank ATMs inside malls or bank branches rather than from street machines, and keep small notes for short rides.

    Practical guides

    Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials

    Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.

    Flights

    Lima is served by Jorge Chávez International Airport (LIM), and December is high season for travel to Peru, so fares and seats tighten as the congress approaches. The indicative economy round-trip samples captured for these dates show Avianca via Bogotá from around PEN 2,599 and a nonstop LATAM/Delta option around PEN 3,043 from New York JFK, including taxes and fees but excluding optional bags. Treat those as directional only: compare your own departure city, check whether a Miami, Panama City or Bogotá connection is cheaper, and book once your registration and venue district are confirmed. Add at least one buffer day before the first session for long-haul delays, and reconfirm the return leg if you plan a Cusco or Machu Picchu extension.

    Transport

    Get to the venue and around the city with these options.

    Airport → venue: Use the nearest international airport serving Lima; Metro, train or taxi links are typically available to the venue district.

    Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near 3: Cercado de Lima: Historic Centre (Cercado de Lima) - standard business hotel; Miraflores: Miraflores - upscale hotel; San Isidro: San Isidro - business hotel.

    Ride-hail: Uber, DiDi, Cabify and inDrive all operate in Lima, and ride-hailing is the default way middle-class Limeños and visitors move around Miraflores, San Isidro, Barranco and the centre. Fares are paid in the app in Peruvian soles, cars are traceable, and the airport pickup zone is signposted at LIM. Set your hotel address in Spanish, check the plate and driver name before getting in, sit in the back for solo night trips, and expect surge pricing during the 7-9 am and 6-9 pm peaks. Avoid hailing unmarked street taxis, especially after dark.

    Public transit: Lima runs two rail-like systems: the elevated Metro de Lima Line 1, with a flat fare paid by a rechargeable card, and the Metropolitano bus rapid transit, with articulated buses on dedicated trunk corridors and feeder routes, also paid by card rather than cash on board. Together they cover long north-south and east-west movements cheaply, but neither reaches every hotel door, and both are extremely crowded in peak hours. Traditional combi minibuses and coasters fill the gaps on dense city routes, though they are hard for visitors to navigate without Spanish and a route map. For the congress, use the Metropolitano or Metro where a station sits close to your hotel and the venue, and fall back on app ride-hailing for the rest; buy and top up the card at a station booth on arrival day.

    Parking: Parking is not part of the typical delegate journey, since most visitors to Lima use ride-hailing or the Metropolitano. If you drive or rent a car, central Lima venues and hotels normally rely on paid commercial garages rather than large free car parks, with hourly charges in Miraflores and San Isidro of roughly PEN 8-15 and day caps around PEN 40-70 as a planning estimate. Confirm with the organiser whether the confirmed congress venue has its own car park, whether exhibitor vehicles need a permit for the loading area, and what the daily delegate rate is; do not assume on-site parking without written confirmation.

    Weather

    Plan and pack for the event climate.

    Month: December 2026 (early summer in Lima)

    Temperature: Approx. 18-27 C: nights and early mornings around 18-20 C, afternoons around 24-27 C. Climatological band for coastal Lima in December, not a forecast - check the short-range forecast before packing.

    Seasonality: December falls in Lima's dry coastal summer. Measurable rain is rare, but humid grey mornings with garúa fog and fine drizzle are common in sea-facing districts such as Miraflores and Barranco, usually clearing to sunshine in the afternoon. It is also high season for domestic travel in Peru, so flights, hotels and any Cusco extension should be booked early.

    Packing: Pack light layers for 18-27 C days: shirts and light trousers for sessions, a sweater or light jacket for humid evenings and air-conditioned halls, sunglasses and sunscreen for afternoon sun, and a compact umbrella for garúa drizzle. Bring comfortable walking shoes for hotel-to-venue and evening strolls, Type A/B plug adapters for Peru's 220 V supply, a refillable bottle for filtered water, and a printed copy of your registration, insurance and passport details in case your phone data fails on arrival.

    FAQs & glossary

    Answers

    Frequently asked

    When and where does the SOCREUMA congress take place?
    The 2026 edition is scheduled for 3-5 December 2026 in Lima, Peru. The official congress site is congress.socreuma.org.pe; check the venue address and hall allocation there or with the secretariat before booking accommodation, because the exact building and room block can be updated by the organiser.
    Who organises the congress and how do I contact them?
    The congress is organised by the Peruvian society behind the SOCREUMA brand, and the official domain congress.socreuma.org.pe is the authoritative channel for registration, programme and venue details. Use the contact form or secretariat email published on that site rather than third-party listings.
    How do I register as a delegate?
    Registration is handled through the official congress site. Create or log into your account, complete the delegate form, choose your category (specialist, resident, student or accompanying person) and pay through the payment options shown there. Keep the confirmation email and the payment receipt, since you may be asked for them at the accreditation desk.
    What are the registration categories and are there reduced rates?
    Medical congresses in Peru typically separate specialists, residents and undergraduate students, and sometimes offer early-bird and on-site rates. The SOCREUMA congress page is the only place where the current categories and prices are published, so confirm your category and the payment deadline there before you book flights.
    What is included in a delegate registration?
    Delegate passes normally cover access to scientific sessions, the exhibition area, congress materials and the certificate of attendance, with pre-congress courses or social functions sometimes ticketed separately. Confirm the exact inclusion list for the 2026 edition on the organiser site, since it is set by the scientific committee.
    Will sessions be in Spanish, and is translation provided?
    The working language of a Peruvian national congress is normally Spanish, and international guest lectures may be delivered in Spanish or English. Where simultaneous interpretation is offered it is announced in the programme and headsets are collected at the room entrance; check with the secretariat before you rely on translation.
    Do I need a visa to travel to Lima for the congress?
    Peru allows visa-free short stays for many nationalities, including the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Canada and most Latin American countries, but the permitted length of stay and permitted activities vary by passport. Check Migraciones Peru and your nearest Peruvian consulate for your own nationality, and confirm with the organiser whether your role (delegate, speaker, exhibitor) needs a specific entry category.
    What documents should I carry at Lima airport?
    Carry a passport valid for at least six months beyond your arrival date, proof of onward or return travel, and the address of your hotel or the congress venue for the immigration form. Exhibitors bringing equipment or samples should also carry the commercial documents and customs paperwork arranged with their freight forwarder.
    How do I get from Jorge Chávez International Airport to the congress area?
    The airport sits in Callao, roughly 11-12 km northwest of central Lima. Options include app-based ride-hailing or an authorised airport taxi (allow 30-60 minutes depending on traffic), or the Airport Express Lima bus that runs to Miraflores. Confirm the congress venue district first, then pick the option that matches it.
    Where should I stay in Lima for the congress?
    Miraflores and San Isidro are the most practical bases for a medical congress, with a wide range of hotels, restaurants and safe evening walking; Barranco suits a quieter boutique stay, and the historic centre is closest to government and colonial venues but busier and less green. Choose according to the confirmed venue and your tolerance for a daily commute through Lima traffic.
    What is the weather like in Lima in early December?
    December is early summer on the Peruvian coast: expect mild, humid days around 24-27 C, cooler evenings around 18-20 C, grey morning garúa in sea-facing districts and very little measurable rain. This is a climatological pattern rather than a forecast, so check a short-range forecast in the final week before packing.
    How do I move around Lima during the congress?
    Use app-based ride-hailing or radio taxis for door-to-door trips, the Metropolitano bus rapid transit and Metro de Lima Line 1 for predictable trunk journeys paid with a reloadable card, and avoid hailing unmarked street taxis at night. Allow generous time in the morning and evening peaks, when traffic across Miraflores, San Isidro and the centre can be slow.
    Is Lima tap water safe to drink?
    Tap water in Lima is generally not recommended for visitors to drink untreated. Hotels and congress venues normally provide filtered or bottled water, and bottled water is inexpensive and widely available; use it for drinking and for brushing teeth if you are sensitive.
    Can I combine the congress with a trip to Cusco or Machu Picchu?
    Yes, many delegates add a few days in Cusco, the Sacred Valley or Machu Picchu, and December falls in the Peruvian summer high season, so flights and train tickets to Aguas Calientes should be booked well ahead. Cusco sits above 3,300 m, so plan an acclimatisation day and do not schedule the altitude stay immediately before your return flight if you can avoid it.
    What should exhibitors confirm before shipping materials to Lima?
    Confirm the stand build rules, delivery windows and lift access with the organiser, and check temporary import and clearance requirements with SUNAT or your freight forwarder, since medical devices and samples can require additional documentation. Do not ship anything until the organiser has confirmed the venue address and the receiving contact.
