G'day all, I have grey nomad relatives touring Lima, Peru at the moment. They are now climbing Machu Pichu. If they survive the climb and return in one piece I want to take advantage while they are there. Can somebody recommend to me what to buy? Gold, Silver, coins or bullion. I have a budget of A$1,500 to a$2000. And if you can suggest where they can be bought. Thanks, LD
I urge caution for your relatives when buying coins over there as forgery is rife. Tourists can be an easy target for everything from taxi change to buying coins. I was there last in 2012 and the problem only seemed to be getting worse.
