Peru will play the last two matches in this stage of Qualifiers heading to the Qatar 2022 World Cup. This Thursday, March 24, he faces Uruguay in Montevideo and on March 29 he will close the qualifying stage in Lima against Paraguay and the loyal fans, as in Russia 2018, will not hesitate to 'break the chanchito' to accompany the Peruvian team to qualify directly to the top world cup party or the repechage that will be played at the same venue where the World Cup.

But how much does it really cost to travel to Qatar from Lima?

Four years ago the World Cup fever ignited with the Peruvian qualification to Russia 2018 and the fans did everything and sold everything in order to accompany the bicolor in its world cup debut after 36 years.

Thousands of Peruvians took the main Russian cities, becoming the red-and-white tide that won him the prize of the 'Best Fans in the world' and for this occasion it will be no exception.

The ways to plan your trip to Qatar 2022 will depend on the results of the Peruvian national team in these last two matches, but if you are thinking of traveling to this distant Middle Eastern country you will have to be prepared, because it won't be cheap.
