How to get from the airport in Lima to Bruce Organisation in Trujillo:

1- Reserve a driver to meet you at the airport and take you to your hotel or bus. We use 2 safe and reliable chauffeurs - their names are Leonardo Moya. Leonardo will be waiting for you with your name on a sign when you come out of customs. Make your reservation directly with one of them via email:[Leonardo: leitomovil@hotmail.com . Give your name, say you are a Bruce volunteer - give your arrival date, time and flight number. He will charge S/40 to S/50 (roughly US$12-$15, depending on how long he has to wait for your flight to arrive - this driver only goes to the airport to collect our volunteers) to meet you and take you to your hotel or bus. The next day either contact one of them or else the hotel staff will put you in a safe taxi and give him directions to your bus terminal. NOTE - If you reserve Leonardo or Guillermo and then you do not turn up, you will be billed for $14 -because it means one of them has come to the airport and spent 2 hours for nothing.

2 - (A) - (assuming your international flight arrives at night, it will be too late to catch a bus to Trujillo until the next day, you will need to spend the first night in Lima) - Reserve a hotel room for the night. Below are three hotels in the best and safest part of town, which give our volunteers a discount. You can make your reservation via email.
.....(B) - If you arrive early in the morning, then we recommend that you get the driver to make a reservation for you on the 1:PM bus to Trujillo.
.....(C) - If you arrive in the afternoon or evening, then we recommend that you get the driver to make a reservation for you on the 10 or 11:PM bus to Trujillo.

3 - .Reserve a seat on the bus from Lima to Trujillo.
Either do this with the help of the driver (one of our trusted taxi drivers), or when checking in at your hotel - (be certain - immediately after checking in - to ask the hotel staff to reserve your seat on the Linea or ITTSA bus (presumably for the next day) - this can only be done once you are in Lima (because buses in Peru require payment within 24 hours).*

4 - Either the morning, or the morning after you arrive in Lima and have your bus reservation, please call us at this number: (044) 9924445 so we can have someone meet you at the ITTSA terminal in Trujillo.
Note, if the hotel staff can't get you on an ITTSA bus, ask for a seat on the bus company 'La Linea' it is a little more expensive, but also safe and punctual (we only pick you up if you travel with one of these two bus lines, and take their direct services - departing Lima at 1:PM and 10-10:30PM).*
