How to use the bus in Lima [Peru]

Lima, the capital of Peru, has a huge number of bus stops, and is a great way for locals to get around. It's also cheap, so it's a good deal for both locals and tourists! [How to buy] There are vendors at the bus stops, so buy a card (commonly known as a Lima Pass) from them. I paid about 5 soles for the card issue fee and 10 soles for the charge, for a total of 15 soles. Payment can be made by card (I think it depends on the bus stop...) The same goes for charging. Just hand over the amount you want to charge in cash and they will charge it for you. You will also get change. [Fare] When I went, it was 2.4 soles per person. (The fare is the same for one ride regardless of distance.) It seems that if you pay with cash, you won't get change, so it's more convenient to make a card. When you get on the bus, just tap the card at the payment area and you can get on. This card can also be shared, and according to the vendor, up to four people can use one card. (Sometimes, people who don't have a card would pay cash to other people and borrow a card.) [Movement] There are no signs to guide you to the next bus stop, so look at your current location on the map and get off at the appropriate place. Just like in Japan, buses have a get off button, and if you press it, the bus will stop at the next stop. #Traveling Abroad #Peru #Lima #Bus
