Travel tips?
I just wonder if I should take some local money with me or USD should be OK...? I only have 4 full days (arrive late & leave early), one day will be spent for a full day tour.
Also, could I get a local sim (with data)? I arrive late, so I don't think any shops open at the airport, but somewhere at a shop in Lima.
Finally, any must do/eat suggestions...?

Dollars are widely accepted in restaurants, shops, any formal business, though the exchange rate may not be the most convenient,it's better to change to soles in exchange locations (several in central Miraflores).

Thanks. Travelex seem to sell it, will exchange a bit of it, and take some USD too. I stay in Miraflores, so should be OK.
