Weekday mornings between 8:00 AM and 11:00 AM offer the coolest temperatures and most active animals. The dry season (May through October) provides the most comfortable weather for outdoor farm activities, avoiding Lima's humid winter months.

The farm is budget-friendly ($ rating) and operates Monday through Friday only, closing on weekends. Located about 45 minutes east of central Lima in Chaclacayo, you will need private transportation or taxi service as public transit is challenging with children.

Open year-round Monday through Friday. The dry season (May to October) offers the most pleasant weather conditions. During Peru's rainy season (December to March), morning visits are preferable as afternoon showers are common.

Chaclacayo has several local restaurants along the main road. Try La Granja de Tía Nina for traditional Peruvian dishes in a family-friendly setting, or pack a picnic lunch to enjoy at the farm.
