Very interesting historical site. Hard to believe people were living there in the last century. Definitely worth a visit if in the area or on a cruise stop. Full review by Maury F
How much damage have the sites and sights in and around Trujillo suffered from this years rains?

Most of the intricate detail at Chan Chan is under roof. The rains last fall were minimal, I saw more damage at one of the other sites near Trujillo, It was reparable...

We had a private English speaking guide and we had a long day but did visit Huacas in the morning then lunch then Chan Chan. I do feel you need a guide as previously stated there is not much information on site.
Do your tours include pickup from the cruise ship port? The tour would need to begin in the morning
A:
You will have to coordinate this venue with your ship. I was on a ground tour so I cannot answer the question. Hope you get to see this part of pre-inca history!

We travelled around Trujillo by taxi for about a week and a half and saw no taxi that would accommodate 11 passengers. Every taxi we rode in had 4 available seats, although I saw 5 squeeze in on more than one occasion and I am told that even more have at other times. Incidentally, rear seat belts may not exist, may be inaccessible or otherwise inoperative anyway. Meanwhile, taxis are everywhere, especially at the airport and taxi travel is not expensive.
