US State Department Travel Warning for Peru


October 26, 2000
Sporadic political demonstrations are likely to continue in Peru until after the national elections tentatively scheduled for early April 2001. American citizen visitors and residents in Peru are encouraged to monitor local newscasts closely to keep informed about demonstrations, which are usually announced in advance. While marches and demonstrations in recent months have been largely peaceful, they have the potential to turn violent, and police often use tear gas to subdue crowds.

There has been no evidence of any antiAmerican sentiment in recent demonstrations. Nevertheless, U.S. citizens in Peru are advised to avoid demonstrations and crowds, and to plan incountry travel in accordance with U.S. Embassy travel restrictions contained in the Department of State's Consular Information Sheet for Peru.


Machu Picchu and other major tourist sites have been largely unaffected by political demonstrations. However, travelers have been occasionally inconvenienced by transportation strikes that have caused delays on the Cusco/Machu Picchu railroad, on major highways, and in downtown Lima. U.S. citizens are advised to avoid riding public buses during transportation strikes, as passengers have occasionally been injured in strikerelated confrontations.

For further information on travel to Peru, please consult the Department of State's latest Consular Information Sheet for Peru. News and information about current events is also available on U.S. Embassy Lima's web site at www.rcp.net.pe/usa.

US State Department Travel Considerations for Bolivia


September 29, 2000
Bolivia has recently experienced widespread civil strife, which has resulted in the death of at least eight Bolivian citizens over the last two weeks. The disturbances began with protests by coca leaf growers in the Chapare region of the country, but have spread to rural areas across Bolivia. Throughout the country, groups of Bolivians protesting various government policies have blocked highways with stones, tree limbs, and trash. Protesters have attacked motorists attempting to evade the blockades, and in one instance killed a motorist. There have been some clashes between police attempting to clear the roads and protesters. Travel to any of the usual tourist attractions, such as Copacabana on Lake Titicaca or Sorata (a favorite destination for backpackers) is dangerous.

All overland shipments to La Paz have been blocked or delayed and all roads leading to the city are also blocked, as rural protesters attempt to isolate the capital.

While U.S. citizens are not specifically targeted, U.S. citizens traveling in Bolivia are strongly advised to avoid overland travel. Air travel to Bolivia's major cities has not been interrupted but U.S. citizens are urged to monitor local news sources and to consult with the Embassy before commencing travel.

For further general information on travel to Bolivia, please consult the Department of State's latest Consular Information Sheet available at the Bureau of Consular Affairs home page at http//travel.state.gov. All Americans resident or traveling in Bolivia are urged to register with the U.S. Embassy in La Paz (Tel 5912430251), the consular agency in Cochabamba (5914273166), or the consular agency in Santa Cruz (5913426476) and to obtain updated information on the security situation.
