Special Tourist Police Station, PNP
Comisaría Especial de Turismo Lima
(Tourist Police Station - City Center)

Av. España, Cdra. 4, Lima, City Center

Phone Number: (0051 1) 423-3500

(This station covers mostly the City Center and the northern districts of Lima)
It might be very helpful to contact them directly when you are in trouble (fraud, theft,…), because due to the chain of command the ‘normal’ police will call them anyway to deal with all cases where a foreigner has been involved (most of them are supposed to speak English).

Special Tourist Police Station, PNP

Comisaría Especial de Turismo Lima Sur
(Tourist Police Station - South)

Calle Colón 246, Miraflores

Phone Number: (0051 1) 243-2190

The 'Brigada de Águilas Blancas' (White Eagles) based in this station, is an additional force on the streets with the main aim to increase the protection, security and attention especially of/for tourists.

Tourist Police Miraflores (operated by the Seguridad Miraflores)
Tourist Police Miraflores
(Seguridad Miraflores)

Phone Number: (0051 1) 313-3773

The municipality of Miraflores operates like most other districts as well, its own ‘city – police’ (called Seguridad). These ‘forces’ are independent from the police and give additional security to the citizens.

In February 2007 the Seguridad Miraflores put a new unit in service: 'The Tourist Police'.
They have clearly marked vehicles and there is a big sticker on the car saying: 'We speak English'. According to press releases by the municipality their employees are prepared to maintain ‘fluid conversations’ in English, French, Italian and Japanese. On board of the vehicle are additionally two regular Policemen.
