Hello. I'm from Peru, so I hope I can help you.
Go to Miraflores, Barranco and the Plaza Mayor. What you should definetely do is tasting peruvian food (sincerely, the best of the world). Cebiche, aji de gallina, papa a la huancaina and arroz con mariscos are dishes you'll love. Also, try chicha morada (a drink made of purple corn), Inca Kola (our national soda), and Pisco Sour (the national alcoholic drink). These places are extremely good: "La Mar" (seafood) and "Jose Antonio" or "Señorio de Sulco" (Peruvian cuisine). If you want to spend more money, go to "La Rosa Nautica" or "Astrig & Gaston". It's more expensive, but worth it. You can also watch our typical dances at "Brisas del Titicaca", buy your tickets in any "Wong" supermarket.
Some tips:
- TAXIS are never more expensive than 12 soles ($ 4). When you take a taxi they'll notice you are not from Peru and sometimes they will try to take advantage of it. The only taxi that could be $10 or $15 is the first one you take from the airport to your hotel (I recommend you to hire it inside the airport).
- Don't drink the water from the faucet.
- Always ask if the food is spicy, so they can regulate that to the point you like: spicy, just a little bit, not at all.
- You'll have to pay taxes when you are returning to your country: $28, so save some money if you don't want to stay here forever.
Hope you come and have a wonderful time. This is the official tourism website: www.peru.info , also available in English |

Then, try any of these ideas, depending on your interests, time and money.
