Public safety

Robberies repeatedly occurred during taxi transfer from Lima "Jorge Chavez" airport. Organize the airport transfer to Lima only with a licensed taxi and bus companies with an official desk inside the arrival area.

In Lima, theft is frequent in touristy areas, like the city center, Miraflores,  Barranco quarters, and markets, bus stations. Be careful with crowds.

In bars, discos watch out for your drinks to avoid that someone put a knockout drop in it. Do not leave drinks unattended and do not accept drinks from strangers.
