Since Arequipa experiences heavy traffic, having a compact or mid-size car will enable you to manoeuvre through traffic easily.

The default speed limits in Arequipa are 30 km/h (20 mph) in urban areas, including city streets, residential areas, and the downtown areas, and 60 km/h (35 mph) on open roads.
