Phone calls from Peru to USA and probably Canada, etc.
by John
In Peru many people use cell phones with either Movistar, Claro or one of the other cell companies. But to call the USA or probably other countries and "fijo" or landline phone is the way to go. Buy a card "Hola Peru" for S/10.00 soles and you get over 1-1/2 hours worth of phone calls to the US. That's about $4.00 for around 100 minutes so very cheap! That's if you know someone with a phone. Of course if you call from a "locutorio", a place with pay phone cabinets, you will also be charged a small amount per minute. Either way, calling with an Hola Peru card is really a deal.
