Frequently Asked Questions

Can I avoid toll roads in Peru?

Alternative free routes exist but significantly increase travel time and may have poor road conditions. Major intercity travel typically requires using tolled highways.

Do motorcycles pay different rates?

Motorcycles are generally classified as Category I vehicles and pay the same rates as cars at most toll plazas.

Is it better to pay cash or use electronic tags?

Electronic tags (e-Pass) offer convenience and time savings, especially during peak hours. Cash is universally accepted but may involve waiting in manual lanes.

What happens if I don't have exact change?

Most toll plazas provide change, but having small bills (S/ 5, 10, 20) speeds up the transaction process significantly.

Are tolls charged both directions?

Generally, tolls are charged in one direction only on intercity highways, but metropolitan Lima tolls may apply in both directions depending on the specific route.

Do foreign tourists get different rates?

No, toll rates are uniform for all users regardless of nationality. Tourist status does not affect toll charges.

Can I use credit cards at all toll plazas?

Most major toll plazas accept credit/debit cards, but cash remains the most reliable payment method, especially on secondary routes.
