ITINERARYITINERARY
DAY 1 – Lima – Paracas – Ballestas Islands – Huacachina – Sandboarding – Night in Huacachina
You will get picked up at your central accommodation in Lima at around 6.00 am (time changes depending on location - if you are out of the city centre we will arrange a meeting point) and board on a tourist bus where our guide will explain you in detail the programme of the day while you start heading towards Paracas. Once there you will be taken to the dock to start your amazing boat tour to the Ballestas Islands at around 10 AM - you will have the opportunity to explore this paradise and will be able to spot the local fauna on the rocks, such as big groups of sea lions, small penguin families, and a huge variety of sea birds like seagulls, cormorants, pelicans and others. You might also be lucky enough to see dolphins in the water.
The tour lasts about two hours and back to the shore (at about 12.00) you will have about an hour break to buy your lunch
. At 13.00 we get back on the bus and make our way to Huacachina arriving there at around 14.15. This breathtaking oasis is located in the middle of the desert in a surreal atmosphere. Here you will be able to sandboard down the biggest dunes in the whole continent and get to take a ride on a Dune Buggy. After the activity is finished (h 18.00) you will have free time and will do your check-in at the local hostel where you will spend the night.
 
DAY 2 – Huacachina – Nazca – Nazca Lines Flight – Return to Lima 
The second day our adventure continues with the 8.30 AM transfer from Huacachina to Nazca airport. Once at the airport you will do your check-in (original passport is required) and start your amazing flight adventure over world-famous Nazca Lines. Who made these lines and the reason why they did it is still unknown and is one of the biggest mysteries of human history. What's more incredible is the way they managed to draw such perfect figures with such a basic technology as it was centuries ago.
The flight lasts for about 35 minutes. Back in Nazca you will then have free time until 3 PM, when you start your journey back to Huacachina. From there you connect with the bus back to Lima that leaves at 18.30. You will be dropped off at your accommodation in Lima late in the evening, 23.45 approximately.

IMPORTANT INFORMATIONIMPORTANT INFORMATION
  • Accommodation in Huacachina - You will spend the night in a shared accommodation (dorm style). Private accommodations are available for an extra price but you will pay that directly to the guide on the bus. Please still let us know in the Further Details if you would like to have a private accommodation (subject to availability). In case you want to book your accommodation separately on your own, please let us know so that we can make a little discount on the price.
  • The pilot will go around each geoglyph in circles in order for you to see each of them from both sides. This might cause motion sickness for those who are prone to it, so it is highly recommended to take some medicine before leaving - also, please tell the pilot about this and ask for a motion sickness baggie as soon as you get onboard.
  • Please don't forget to bring your original passport on the tour.
