Trujillo Inns - Reviews and Rates

Each morning I have gone around the corner from the hotel to a locutorio. This is where you can make very inexpensive phone calls or use the internet. I check all my e-mails there. The general rate in Peru is S/. 1.00 (US$ 0.35) per hour. These communications centres are located all over the country wherever telephone reception is available, wit...

Today I have to be at the church for the rehearsal. That's easy, as the San Francisco Church , is just across the street from my hotel. The rehearsal goes well. I am to escort my daughter down the aisle, preceded by Alexandra, who is the flower girl. It seems an awfully long walk to me. I have been told that the church will be pretty full, with ...

Take a tour of several pre-Incan sites. Moche temples and ruins of the Chan Chan. I was told the tour would be in English. The guide speaks almost none. She has memorized verbatim key parts of the tour in English. I get to work on my Spanish. Tschudi Palace was the most impressive (see photo). A large complex that housed the nobility. Interestin...
