Currency for Peru...?

Travel Info
Can I buy Neuvos Sols in the US or do I just wait until I get to Peru? I've read that many places in Peru accept the US dollar...should I get Sols at all?

Other Travel Tips
Take dollars. You can probably get a better exchange rate if you exchange in Peru. Airports are not a good place, because the exc rate is a rip off. You change there when you need to.
In Latin America, businesses take US dollars, but I would not advise it, since you also get screwed in the exchange rate sometimes
If you need exchange rate please use converter below

1 dolar is 2.36 soles right now..here in Lima, it's better to change your dollars on the streets than in the banks or the money house. They are safe, dont worry.
Take dollars...BUT ---BE SURE THAT THEY ARE NEW AND NOT RIPPED. They won't take damaged currency. I learned this the hard way!
