Directions
Please make sure you take a taxi from within the gates of the bus terminal. These taxis are safe!!! The price is 5 soles.
Should you arrive by plane a taxi is around 15 soles from the airport to the hostal.
Please be aware that the Google map is wrong. La Casa de los Pinguinos is at Avenida Parra 110, exactly there where the flag is. But Google have mistakenly changed the name of the street in Alameda Mario Varga Llosa. No taxi driver will know this street, you have to ask for Avenida Parra!
