Overview

We’ll pick you up from your accommodation in Lima and head south along the Pan-American Highway to Paracas, where you’ll embark on a 2-hour boat tour of the Ballestas Islands. Along the way, you’ll see the mysterious “Candelabro” geoglyph etched into the desert cliffs, before cruising alongside sea lions, Humboldt penguins, and thousands of seabirds in their natural habitat. Next, we’ll continue to Ica, where you’ll visit a vineyard. Enjoy a delicious Peruvian lunch, explore the vineyards, and take part in a fun Pisco and wine tasting, learning about Peru. Our final stop is the breathtaking Huacachina Oasis, surrounded by towering sand dunes. Here, you’ll jump aboard a buggy for an exhilarating ride through the desert and try sandboarding down the golden slopes. Afterward, relax by the lagoon, take incredible photos, or shop for souvenirs before heading back to Lima. An unforgettable day of adventure, culture, and nature — all in one trip!
