Lima

Forget about Emmanuelle and Scarlet Club, they are both out of business, have been for years. I'd forget about Kilate too, it is nothing like it was before Covid.

Check Club 69 and Las Suites de Barranco, they are doing business as usual. Check Tekila Rock, Bambu, Sabor Peruano or El Harem if you are looking for freelancers and semi-pros.

Thank you Jack for the info. Will do.
where are El Harem and Bambu located? Not finding them in the google maps

I'm reading "Exclusive Nightclubs.

The most exclusive and elegant nightclubs in the city of Lima such as: Emmanuelle, Kilates, Scarlet Club and Las Suites de Barranco".

Will check them all out and report. Please do comment if anyone is on the ground (it seems few posts due to protests or other reasons not many mongers around is the impression I get).

Anyone seen her? Any input to how she is? I am in town for a couple days but a bit nervous about seeing her as my last experience with Geisha was Celeste and she was much larger than advertised.

Anyone in Lima this week. Give me a shout (PM), we'll go out to clubs, etc.

I've spent quite a bit of time in Medellin over the last few years, but I'm thinking of visiting Lima for a change. I'm hoping I can get some information that might help me planning my time there. Is there an area in Lima where the expats tend to congregate? I'the like to meet some folks who know the scene there.

I prefer the Casas when I go to Medellin because it's so uncomplicated. I like to stop for a short session and then go about my day. No desire to hook up with girls for dates or long sessions. Can somebody pass along any info they are willing to share?

Also, I'm looking for a taxi driver (or someone) that can help guide me around a bit while I'm there. Things like picking me up at air-port, taking me for groceries. Etc.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Barnstormer.

Safe club to hit is Tequila Rock a couple blocks away. Always a sprinkled of pros, non pros and hot girls with friends. If your Spanish is good, hit up Pizza alley and try out your game on the many waitresses and regular girls.

You will probably be staying in Miraflores. Miraflores / San Isidro / Barranco have a continuous beautiful and safe area which is miles long (and a mile or two wide). Protests happen in the center, miles away from where you would stay, eat, walk. There is zero chance of protests in those nice areas I mentioned. And there is no reason for you to go to the city center.

You will be totally fine. You might be slightly stressed (but still completely safe) when taking a taxi from airport to Miraflores, as it goes through some not great areas, but once you get into airbnb / hotel, you will have no issues. If anything, being able to get into the best restaurants will be somewhat easier with less tourists.

Thanks for proving your thoughts guys. I am too invested to back out of my trip Ofcourse I will play safe when I am in Lima. I will reach out to some of the senior members soon for more advice and help with intros.

I am not doubting when you say its safe there from the perspective of locals, but think through the lenses of a tourist who doesn't know the city and don't know the government building / places to avoid and keep a tab on daily protest, they could stray into harm's way. These days due to social media, protests could initiate within minutes / hours and it will be hard for a tourist to be on top of it.

I have several friends / contacts in Lima that I communicated with lately regarding the situation. Lima (at least nice areas like Miraflores) is extremely safe, protests are localized, restaurants are open, etc.

Police here is very different from police in Mexico (for example), as to their level of integrity, and you should not worry about them, they are there to protect you.

I would not travel elsewhere, though, and just stick to Lima until things calm down.

That's true.

In fact, things are so "normal" around here (except on TV news programs) that, immersed in everyday life, one forgets that there are protesters and that Lima Centro should be avoided.

Just last Tuesday, around 4:30 pm, I was driving from the beach at Chorrillos to LOS Olivos to meet a girl and, without thinking, I took the fastest route: Circuito de Playas-Via Expresa Paseo de la Republica. Suddenly, I found myself right in front of the Palace of Justice; I thought "OMG! This was a mistake!", but everything was normal. Just a big kite with the colors of the flag (red-white-red) flying with a tail banner that read "DINA ASESINA" but not a single protester. Then I took Av. Garcilazo de la Vega and, a couple of blocks before arriving at Av. Tacna, there was a big bunch of protesters, nearly three blocks long, marching towards the Palace of Justice, wic, luckily meant I was driving in the opposite direction. I suspect there were some two hundred protesters with banners and flags, flanked by a small contingent of police officers and an army of reporters, photographers, and TV cameramen (nearly half as much as the protesters). I won't say that I wasn't afraid when the protesters filed past me, I expected at least a rock on my windshield at any moment, but none of that happened. Right after the protesters, all the cars and buses traveling in their same direction were slowly following them like nothing happened.

Now I wish I had taken some photos and videos with my cellphone but, at this point, I was too scared.

All I will say is, with all that adrenaline in my blood, the sex was amazing minutes later.

I don't know if things are going to get worse or not, I really don't think so, but right now just staying out of Lima Centro is enough to be safe. Of course, all plans to travel outside of Lima must be discarded.

I agree.

The demonstrations are taking place in important Avenues, close to government buildings and most of them are Pacific in nature.

Side streets are safe so are places like Miraflores, San Isidro and even Lince.

They have not affected neither sites Nike photokines or "delivery" or sweethearts..

Unrest has been going on for few weeks now, been following the news closely and I wouldn't want to get caught in the middle of any protest. I am not in Lima, but based on the news of unrest, I wouldn't want to be there, since there is no law & order, even police could take advantage of the tourist / foreigners. Machu Picchu has been closed indefinitely. It attracts a lot of tourist. My 2 cents would be to postpone your travel plans if possible. I am not sure if your airlines has any flexibility to change the tickets without any cost due to the unrest.

Hey guys,

How's the situation in Lima? I am reading of daily growing protests. Is this affecting local city travel, nightlife and dating. I've booked my travels and plan to be there in a couple of weeks. Let me know if any of you currently staying in Lima have any advice.
