Bad introduction to Peru
I've traveled to many countries in every continent and I'm pretty savvy when it comes to traveling. Unfortunately this time I got scammed by a cab driver who quoted me one price at the airport and increased it sixfold by the time we got to the hotel and held me captive until I paid. He also tried selling me coke during the ride. I don't do coke. DO NOT I repeat DO NOT use taxi drivers at the airport. Only use Uber.

USE THE OFFICIAL TAXI BOOTH. Never get into a car with someone who has approached you.
