Getting Around
Getting around the North Coast of Peru is best managed using a combination of local buses and taxis. For longer distances between cities like Trujillo, Chiclayo, and Piura, comfortable interprovincial buses are readily available and quite affordable. Within cities, 'colectivos' (shared vans) offer a cheap way to navigate, while regular taxis are plentiful for more direct journeys. Renting a car is an option for ultimate flexibility, especially if exploring more remote archaeological sites, but be prepared for varying road conditions and local driving styles. Planning your transport in advance will ensure a smooth experience exploring the diverse attractions of the North Coast.
