Description
If you have little time and want to see the best of Paracas, Ica and the Huacachina oasis in one day, this tour is for you. The adventure begins with an early morning pick up from your accommodation in Lima (San Isidro, Miraflores or Barranco), and then depart to Paracas in a comfortable 3 hours and a half trip.
Upon arrival in Paracas, we will make a brief stop for breakfast and then start the boat ride to the Ballestas Islands, where the first highlight will be the Candelabro, a mysterious geoglyph engraved in the sand of the peninsula. During the tour around the islands, you will see impressive rock formations and a great variety of marine fauna such as sea lions, Humboldt penguins and birds such as boobies, guanayes, cormorants and tendrils. After the tour, we will return to the pier at El Chaco.
At noon we will head to Ica to visit the traditional winery La Caravedo, where you will learn about the artisanal process of making pisco, see the wine press used for pressing grapes, and enjoy a pisco tasting. In addition, you will enjoy a delicious lunch with typical dishes of the region (a menu will be offered with options, including vegetarian and vegan alternatives). During your visit, you will also be able to witness a Peruvian Paso Horse show.
In the afternoon, we will transfer to Huacachina, the famous desert oasis. You will have some free time to walk around, take pictures or just relax. Then, we will live an exciting experience with a dune buggy tour and sandboarding at sunset, one of the most fun activities of the day.
At the end of the tour, we will return to Lima, with estimated arrival around 11:00 pm and transfer to your accommodation.
Live a day full of nature, culture, adventure and unforgettable landscapes!
