Often heard lies at the bus stop
"That's a very good hotel, but it is full because there is a convention in town. I know because it's our family's hotel. But don't worry, we have another hotel and we can give you a room there!"
"The hotel is full. I know because I work there."
"The hotel changed owners and is now very, very bad."
"They've upgraded and the price has doubled/tripled/$850 a night/whatever"
"The owner is a Polish women one wonders what the Polish ever did wrong in Nazca who is very unfriendly and she'll attack you sometimes another former Eastern bloc nationality is used.
"My father has a hotel, my brother is a pilot and I have a travel agency"
Getting around in Nazca is easy. You can walk almost anywhere and a taxi inside of town really costs around 3 soles although every taxi driver might try to charge you more.
The big hassle in Nazca are the touts that hang out at the bus stations and on the streets. They represent shady or nonexistent hotels and travel agents, claim to work for your hotel or to offer cheap flights for viewing the Nasca lines. Ignore them and have your hotel pick you up from the bus station.
