Leave the city behind and dive into the best of coastal Peru in this all-in-one, 2-day trip. Cruise with sea lions, ride dunes like a pro, and fly over ancient mysteries etched into the desert floor - this tour brings together wildlife, adrenaline, and ancient history in the most epic way.

Day 1: Lima to Paracas, Ballestas Islands, and Huacachina Oasis
Start your adventure with an early morning pickup from your hotel in Lima. Travel in comfort by bus to the coastal town of Paracas, a 4-hour journey along the scenic Pacific coast.

Upon arrival, set off on a 2-hour boat tour to the Ballestas Islands, known as “the poor man’s Galapagos.” Spot sea lions, Humboldt penguins, and dozens of marine bird species as your guide shares insights about the unique ecosystem.

Enjoy free time for lunch in Paracas from 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. Choose from a variety of local restaurants - your guide can offer great recommendations.

In the afternoon, continue by bus to Huacachina, a stunning natural oasis in the heart of the Ica Desert. Enjoy free time to explore the palm-lined lagoon or walk the surrounding dunes.

Later, take part in an exhilarating dune buggy and sandboarding experience. Ride up and down massive desert dunes in a 4x4 buggy, then try sandboarding down the soft golden slopes. It’s one of South America’s most exciting natural playgrounds.

The following day, go from Huacachina to Nazca in a shuttle. Arrive in Nazca around 11:00AM and go straight to the airport. Fly over the mysterious Nazca Lines, which have left thousands of people baffled for years.

Day 2: Nazca Lines Flight and Return to Lima
On the second day, depart Huacachina early for Nazca by private shuttle. Arrive around 11:00 a.m. and head straight to the airport for your 30-minute scenic flight over the Nazca Lines. Admire enormous geoglyphs in the shapes of monkeys, hummingbirds, and other figures, etched into the desert more than 1,000 years ago. Your pilot will guide you through each figure during the flight.

After the flight, enjoy approximately two hours of free time in Nazca. Take this opportunity to visit the Cantalloc Aqueducts, an ancient underground irrigation system still in use today, or relax in the town.

At 3:00 p.m., begin your return journey to Huacachina, then back to Lima by bus. Relax and enjoy the ride before being dropped off at your hotel or hostel in the evening.
