weegegirl 2 #2 January 21, 2004 I didn't skydive in Peru, but I went there two years ago (to hike Machu Piccu) and it is a really cool place to visit. Planning a trip? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skydiveelis 0 #3 January 21, 2004 I was there about two years ago !!!!!!! there is a DZ over there but I didn't take my rig with me , I was there for work , things are cheap , but not skydiving !! scubadiving is not that great for what i heard, but if you are in to surfing they have pretty cool waves , I can tell you all about that and for sure for sure!!!!!! you have to go hiking in Machu Pichu , Lima is a cool city , don't get lost on it !!!!!!!!is one of the most unsafe places in S. America, if you need more info PM me and I can give you details on where to stay in Lima and all that , I even have friends over there , they can always give you some help if you need it________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LouDiamond 1 #4 January 21, 2004 Peru is a fantastic place. A single mans paradise and a non stop party. It shouldn't be hard to find something to keep you busy. As for jumping and diving I would tell you to go somewhere else as neither is really worth the effort. Despite being in the old American embassy when it was blown up, I must say that Lima is still my favorite place in Peru with Iquitos a close second. You need to get a way from the tourist areas if you really want to see the country and experience the real Peru. Traveling in Peru is like skydiving, it's fun but it can be dangerous, especially if you do something stupid. If your into surfing you might have a good time as the waves are OK , the water is pretty dark and dirty but the best part is you can have a board custom made for you at a pretty good price. The same goes for leather items and suits, completely custom made for a very good price. You do need to know where to go though to get the good deals as you will get Gringoed in most places. Have fun and try the Anticuchos with a cold beer, they are awesome."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
