The adventurous end of world-class bus travel, with coverage that´s remarkable considering the varied and sometimes challenging terrain: desert coast, the mountainous Andes, and the Amazon jungle. Long-distance coaches connect Lima with Cuzco, Arequipa, Trujillo, and many smaller cities, with leading operators such as Cruz del Sur and Oltursa. Bus terminals are safe, and premium buses feature reclining seats (like the one pictured here on Cruz del Sur), and various levels of onboard service. Examples:
- Lima → Arequipa: 15–17 hours overnight, 80–180 soles (€20–€45 / $22–$49 USD)
- Lima → Cuzco: 20–24 hours, 100–220 soles (€25–€55/$27–$60 USD)
- Lima → Puno (Lake Titicaca): 20–24 hours overnight, 110–240 soles (€28–€60/$30–$65 USD)
