Renowned for its vibrant culinary scene, Lima is widely regarded as the unofficial gastronomical capital of South America, boasting world-class restaurants and authentic local hidden gems.

The capital is also full of historical and natural wonders to explore, with breathtaking rolling hills and pristine white sand beaches along the Pacific Ocean.

Better yet, Lima will be heading into its summer season when direct flights begin, making it an ideal escape from the Canadian winter.

The flight schedule for Air Transat's Toronto-Lima route is set for twice-weekly flights out of Pearson International every Wednesday and Saturday, starting from December 20, 2023 until April 24, 2024.

You can already book your flights directly on Air Transat's website.
