Transit visa or Tourist visa for multiple US layovers

score:3

Accepted answer

A US transit visa allows transits of up to 29 days. Presumably this is a relic of an earlier era in which long-distance travel by means other than air was still common. In light of that fact, the time waiting is definitely not too long.

However, since a transit visa and a tourist visa both cost $160, and the tourist visa is valid for 10 years by default for Peruvian nationals, you should consider whether there is any possibility that you will want to visit the US between now and 2028, and if there is you should probably apply for a tourist visa.
