香港旅遊業議會總幹事陳張樂怡證實,事發時兩個本港旅行團身處秘魯涉事酒店,分別是捷旅假期廿七天南美遊及尊賞假期卅四天南美遊,分別有廿一名及廿名港人團員及領隊。其中捷旅假期的旅行團有一名旅客被劫匪搶去護照,另一名旅客被搶去手機,被搶護照的旅客需留在秘魯補辦證件,其餘團員繼續行程,昨日已到玻利維亞,而尊賞假期旅行團亦繼續行程。
有團友遭搶劫的捷旅假期,其總經理周永強轉述事發經過時指,當地晚上時間十時許,旅行團在酒店內聽到槍聲,當地職員隨即要他們到廚房內躲避。領隊及團友也被持槍劫匪打劫,匪徒搶走兩名團友的護照、手機及袋後離去,當地警員在約一小時後到達。事發後有部分團友感到害怕,但會繼續行程。
尊賞假期總經理胡宇緯轉述涉事領隊指,團友剛晚膳完畢在酒店房間休息時發生搶劫案,得知事件後均鎖上房門,而該團領隊則留在離大堂相對較近的事發地點,目擊一班蒙面匪徒闖入酒店,同時亦聽到六至八下槍聲,場面驚險,領隊感驚恐並躲在一角等待救援,待事件平靜後即時確認團友安全情況,並向旅行社報告情況。
胡續說,目前所有人安全,團員雖驚訝仍表現冷靜,會繼續入住該酒店多一晚,今日繼續行程。該南美團行程至今進行到中段,預計下月十日回港。尊賞假期會觀察情況,或考慮將該旅遊點從南美團中刪去,但認為事件屬單一事件,相信不會影響南美團情況。
港入境處:續跟進事件
入境處發言人回覆指,接獲一名港人遺失證件的求助後,已即時透過外交部駐港特派員公署、中國駐秘魯大使館及旅議會了解情況,並協助辦理所需的緊急證件。據了解,事件中涉及的港人均安全,處方會繼續與各方保持聯繫跟進事件,並按其意願提供一切可行協助。
近年南美洲長線團大受港人歡迎,有本港旅行社表示,每年都會有十多團南美團,由十六天至卅四天不等,旅程偏向深度遊,會到訪世界文化遺產秘魯馬丘比丘、玻利維亞「天空之鏡」烏尤尼鹽湖,更有機會到南極探訪企鵝,即使團費最高達十萬至卅萬元,但往往在出發前半年已爆滿。

The Director of the Travel Industry Council of Hong Kong, Mr Chan Che-yee, confirmed that at the time of the incident, two Hong Kong tour groups were located at the hotels involved in Peru. They were the seven-day South American tour of the Journey to the Journey and the four-day South American tour. Anonymous Hong Kong people members and team leaders. One of the tour groups of the Journey Holidays was robbed of the passport by the robbers, another passenger was robbed of the mobile phone, and the passenger who was robbed of the passport was required to stay in Peru to reissue the documents. The remaining members continued their journey and arrived in Bolivia yesterday. The tour group also continued its journey.

During the trip to the group, the general manager Zhou Yongqiang said that the incident occurred at 10 o'clock in the evening. The tour group heard gunshots in the hotel and the local staff immediately asked them to escape in the kitchen. The team leader and group members were also robbed by guns and robbers.

Some members of the group were scared after the incident, but they will continue their journey.

Hu Yuwei, the general manager of the Rewards Holiday, relayed the leader of the incident, saying that the group had a robbery in the hotel room after the dinner was finished.

The South American group tour has been carried out to the middle section and is expected to return to Hong Kong on the 10th of next month. Rewarding the holiday will observe the situation, or consider deleting the tourist spot from the South American group, but believe that the incident is a single event and I believe that it will not affect the situation of the South American group.
Hong Kong Immigration Department: Continued follow-up incident

A spokesman for the Immigration Department replied that after receiving a Hong Kong man's lost documents, he immediately obtained information through the Office of the Special Representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong, the Chinese Embassy in Peru and the Brigade and assisted in handling the required urgent documents. It is understood that the people involved in the incident are all safe, and the prescriptions will continue to keep in touch with the parties to follow up the incident and provide all feasible assistance as they wish.

In recent years, the South American long-term group has been greatly welcomed by Hong Kong people. Some local travel agencies say that there are more than a dozen South American delegations every year, ranging from 16 days to four days. The journey is biased towards deep tours and will visit the world cultural heritage of Machu, Peru. Bhikkhu and Bolivia's "Mirror of the Sky" Uyuni Salt Lake has a chance to visit penguins in the Antarctic. Even if the group fee is up to 100,000 to 10,000 yuan, it is often full in the first half of the year.

■死過翻生的周先生,事後獲持槍警員保護。
【星島日報報道】(星島日報報道)本港旅行團在秘魯豪華酒店遇武裝分子殺人洗劫,《巴士的報》獨家訪問到遇事港團友,親述導遊為救團員,引開悍匪而遭槍殺;該團友想起事發時生死一刻,至今仍膽戰心驚,有如死過翻生,一度哽咽落淚,更指遇害導遊是英雄,部分團友自發捐款給死者遺孤。
秘魯導遊犧牲性命救了兩港人旅行團共四十一人。歷劫生死的其中一名港人團友姓周,洋名Michael,與太太、兒子及姨仔一行四人,參加捷旅假期二十七天中南美洲旅行團,事發本周二晚(當地時間)為旅程第六天,捷旅假期及尊賞假期的兩個香港旅行團共四十一人,連續兩晚入住亞馬遜森林附近的Inkaterra Reserva Amazonica酒店。
當晚捷旅團友及領隊二十人在酒店餐廳用膳,尊賞假期部分團員已離開餐廳,但仍有數名團友和數名外國旅客留下,餐廳約有三十人。
已工作了十多年的當地導遊萊昂,翌日準備帶團員到亞馬遜雨林遊覽,當晚首次認識團員,事發時萊昂正與四至五名酒店職員在接持處,突有十七名槍手闖入打劫。
據Michael了解,該批賊人除洗劫酒店,更打算向每名住客行劫,萊昂知道旅客有危險,雖被歹徒持槍挾持,仍趁他們搜掠時偷走,到餐廳通知團友。
「佢同我們講發生打劫,要我們熄燈疏散。」Michael接受《巴士的報》獨家訪問時說,他指感到萊昂當時好緊張,但仍保持鎮定,還不斷安慰團友,並指示各人到較安全的廚房躲避,沿途更要各人趴在地上前行,以免被匪徒發現。
其後,匪徒知道萊昂向旅客通風報信,到餐廳找尋,萊昂為保護旅客,便引開匪徒到餐廳附近的禮品店。Michael稱:「我見萊昂離開後即傳來多響槍聲,再未見他回來。」
各團友一直在廚房等候,感到時間十分漫長,直至警察趕來才知道萊昂已被槍殺。據Michael了解,槍手洗劫整家酒店後,原準備向旅客行劫,但因殺了萊昂,才改變計畫撤退。Michael講到此處開始哽咽,更流出眼淚,「今次有如死過翻生,萊昂是大英雄,他犧牲性命,救了全部團友!」
另一女團員Gloria形容經歷;「真係好似拍戲咁!」當團友知道萊昂為救大家被殺後,心里很難過,不少人更哭泣落淚。「我們都視萊昂為救命恩人,他遺下妻子及三名年幼子女,兩個旅行團的導遊及部分團友,都自發捐錢給其家人,以表達心意。」事發後,當地派出多名持槍警員到酒店駐守,並隨團保護兩個旅行團在當地活動。該兩個旅行團會完成餘下行程,至下月十二日一同返港。

The group members who lost their passports need to return to the capital Lima to reissue their documents, because the remaining three countries have visas, and they hope to meet with the group members as soon as possible. The Travel Industry Council hopes that the hotel will strengthen security, and members and leaders will be more alert.

The two tour groups involved were the "South American Four-State 27-Day Group" organised by the "Journey to the Holidays", with 19 passengers and 1 team leader; and 20 passengers and 1 team leader from the "Rewards Holiday". The two tour groups are expected to return to Hong Kong in the middle of next month.
