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.
