Chan Chan is fairly quite high on the list of things to do in Peru. It’s a national treasure and the Peru tourist industry promote it only slightly less than Machu Picchu. To get there make your way to Trujillo.Considering Trujillo is supposedly the second most important city in Peru after Lima, I was quite surprised how ugly it is; aged, crippled and predominantly concrete.
A string of taxi drivers wait to pounce on tourists getting off the bus at the terminal. Expect them to squeeze as much fare out of you as possible. I had already noticed people in the north of Peru, from Lima upwards, are more geared towards money-making than they are to genuinely helping tourists.
My taxi driver does pretty well out of me. Communicating in Spanglish he tells me about Huanchaco 20-minutes away. There is a beach and it sounds much easier on the eye than concrete central. Even for two nights the 50 soles (11GBP) taxi fare was worth it for a bit of scenery.
