HELPFUL TRAVEL TIPS
This is a summary of precautions to keep in mind during your travels. Miraflores is one of the safest travel areas in Peru and most tourists have no issues.
GENERALLY
● Try to keep a low profile;
● Dress modestly;
● Don’t carry large amounts of cash;
● Don’t carry all your credit cards;
● Don’t wear expensive jewelry;
● Secure your pocketbook and electronics;
If you are the victim of a robbery, call the Peruvian police immediately. The emergency number for the English speaking tourist police is 080022221. You can also call iPeru for tourist assistance at 1-574-8000. In case you are the victim of an armed robbery, please don’t resist. Thieves are aggressive and often act under the influence of drugs.
MONEY/CREDIT CARDS
● Change money at local banks and authorized agencies. In Miraflores, you can use street money exchange that usually have a better rate. Many of these can be found along Avenida Larco, Avenida Pardo and Parque Central Miraflores.
● Be careful when withdrawing money from ATM machines. Many criminals target ATM locations and can either accost you as you are completing or finishing your withdrawal or following you to rob you after.
● When paying with a credit card, never leave your card alone and keep your eye on your credit card throughout the payment process.
TAXI
● Only use taxis from registered services. Do not flag a taxi on the street. The use of taxis by UBER or other telephone/smartphone apps does not guaranty your safety. It is however, a means to mitigate your risk of kidnapping or other crimes associated with taxis.
● Robberies have been reported with taxi services. If your taxi driver is using his cell phone (voice or message) at the time of service, instruct your driver to not do so.
● It is always safer to calling a taxi service or an Uber than getting a taxi on the street.
● If you are hailing a taxi on the street, be aware that there are no meters and that you need to advise the driver of your destination and negotiate a price for the ride in advance. To get a sense of what a reasonable cost for a trip is, it is always good to ask 2-3 drivers before agreeing to an amount.
WALKING
● Avoid dark streets or isolated areas at night, particularly around tourist areas.
● Be circumspect about the display of expensive jewelry, watches or electronics.
BACKPACKS & WALLETS
● Avoid making anything on your person readily accessible to pickpockets.
● Always keep backpacks, purses and suitcases close to you and within your eyesight.
PASSPORT
● Keep your original passport in the apartment safe or in another safe place. Make a copy of the main page, the page containing the visa (if necessary) and a copy of the Peruvian Immigration form received at the port of entry to keep on your cell phone or to have as a hard copy to keep with you.
BUSINESS HOURS
● Most banks serve the public from Monday to Friday between 9:00 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Most commercial establishments are open from Monday to Saturday between 10:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.
TIPPING
● Although tipping is not considered compulsory, 10% of the total bill is an average tip.
CLOTHING
● Throughout the year Lima maintains warm temperatures and little to no rainfall. It is advisable to wear fabric that breathes easily in the summer months and for the winter you may need a sweater or jacket, as the nights become cooler.
FOOD
● Although Peruvian gastronomy is world-renowned for its quality and taste, it is advisable to eat in moderation if you are not use to Peruvian food.
WATER
● Consume only bottled water.
DRINKS
● It is advisable to buy your own drinks and to not leave your drink out of your sight, as someone could slip drugs into your drink.
A/C POWER
● A/C power in Peru is 220 volts.
BUS OUTSIDE LIMA
● When travelling by bus, never leave your carry-on bag and valuables alone. Thieves often steal when passengers are asleep or distracted.
● Try to use direct bus or executive service.
● Non-direct busses make many stops along the way. This increases your chances of being robbed, assaulted or hijacked.
AIRPORT ROUTE TO MIRAFLORES
● Lima has a lot of traffic congestion. The route between the airport and Miraflores has a lot of motorcycle thieves that take advantage of the traffic to rob. They break the car window when the car is not moving.
● If you are inside a car/taxi, etc. keep the windows closed and valuables out of sight.

HELPFUL TRAVEL TIPS
This is a summary of precautions to keep in mind during your travels. Miraflores is one of the safest travel areas in Peru and most tourists have no issues.
GENERALLY
● Try to keep a low profile;
● Dress modestly;
● Don’t carry large amounts of cash;
● Don’t carry all your credit cards;
● Don’t wear expensive jewelry;
● Secure your pocketbook and electronics;
If you are the victim of a robbery, call the Peruvian police immediately. The emergency number for the English speaking tourist police is 080022221. You can also call iPeru for tourist assistance at 1-574-8000. In case you are the victim of an armed robbery, please don’t resist. Thieves are aggressive and often act under the influence of drugs.
MONEY/CREDIT CARDS
● Change money at local banks and authorized agencies. In Miraflores, you can use street money exchange that usually have a better rate. Many of these can be found along Avenida Larco, Avenida Pardo and Parque Central Miraflores.
● Be careful when withdrawing money from ATM machines. Many criminals target ATM locations and can either accost you as you are completing or finishing your withdrawal or following you to rob you after.
● When paying with a credit card, never leave your card alone and keep your eye on your credit card throughout the payment process.
TAXI
● Only use taxis from registered services. Do not flag a taxi on the street. The use of taxis by UBER or other telephone/smartphone apps does not guaranty your safety. It is however, a means to mitigate your risk of kidnapping or other crimes associated with taxis.
● Robberies have been reported with taxi services. If your taxi driver is using his cell phone (voice or message) at the time of service, instruct your driver to not do so.
● It is always safer to calling a taxi service or an Uber than getting a taxi on the street.
● If you are hailing a taxi on the street, be aware that there are no meters and that you need to advise the driver of your destination and negotiate a price for the ride in advance. To get a sense of what a reasonable cost for a trip is, it is always good to ask 2-3 drivers before agreeing to an amount.
WALKING
● Avoid dark streets or isolated areas at night, particularly around tourist areas.
● Be circumspect about the display of expensive jewelry, watches or electronics.
BACKPACKS & WALLETS
● Avoid making anything on your person readily accessible to pickpockets.
● Always keep backpacks, purses and suitcases close to you and within your eyesight.
PASSPORT
● Keep your original passport in the apartment safe or in another safe place. Make a copy of the main page, the page containing the visa (if necessary) and a copy of the Peruvian Immigration form received at the port of entry to keep on your cell phone or to have as a hard copy to keep with you.
BUSINESS HOURS
● Most banks serve the public from Monday to Friday between 9:00 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Most commercial establishments are open from Monday to Saturday between 10:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.
TIPPING
● Although tipping is not considered compulsory, 10% of the total bill is an average tip.
CLOTHING
● Throughout the year Lima maintains warm temperatures and little to no rainfall. It is advisable to wear fabric that breathes easily in the summer months and for the winter you may need a sweater or jacket, as the nights become cooler.
FOOD
● Although Peruvian gastronomy is world-renowned for its quality and taste, it is advisable to eat in moderation if you are not use to Peruvian food.
WATER
● Consume only bottled water.
DRINKS
● It is advisable to buy your own drinks and to not leave your drink out of your sight, as someone could slip drugs into your drink.
A/C POWER
● A/C power in Peru is 220 volts.
BUS OUTSIDE LIMA
● When travelling by bus, never leave your carry-on bag and valuables alone. Thieves often steal when passengers are asleep or distracted.
● Try to use direct bus or executive service.
● Non-direct busses make many stops along the way. This increases your chances of being robbed, assaulted or hijacked.
AIRPORT ROUTE TO MIRAFLORES
● Lima has a lot of traffic congestion. The route between the airport and Miraflores has a lot of motorcycle thieves that take advantage of the traffic to rob. They break the car window when the car is not moving.
● If you are inside a car/taxi, etc. keep the windows closed and valuables out of sight.
