Most Peruvians get around the country by bus, both for shorter and longer distances. Another way of getting around is by train, but that tends to be a lot slower. With the distances in Peru being so vast, many Peruvians and travelers choose to fly instead of going by road or rail. Taxis can be found anywhere at any time in almost every town. Any car can become a taxi simply by sticking a taxi sign up in the front window, and many people, especially in Lima, take advantage of this to supplement their income.
