What you can expect

  • Enjoy an unforgettable adventure exploring the best of Paracas in a single day, combining the sea, wildlife, desert landscapes, and paradisiacal beaches. We'll start between 6:30 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. with pick-up from your accommodation in Ica. The journey to Paracas takes approximately 1 hour.

    Upon arrival, we'll head straight to the harbor to board an airboat at 9:00 AM that will take us to the stunning Ballestas Islands. During this boat trip of about 1.5 hours, you'll see the mysterious Candelabro geoglyph, rock formations such as the Profile of Christ, Humboldt penguins, sea lions, and a wide variety of guano birds in their natural habitat.

    When you return from the boat trip, you'll have free time to have breakfast or buy a snack on Paracas Boulevard (around 10:30 a.m.). Then, we'll get into our van to continue on to the spectacular Paracas National Reserve.

    During our visit to the reserve, we'll explore:

    The flamingo vantage point, where you can see these birds in their natural environment.

    The famous Playa Roja vantage point, ideal for taking photos of the contrast between the sea and the reddish sand.

    La Mina Beach, where you'll have 1 hour of free time to soak up the sun and go for a swim in the sea.

    And finally, Lagunillas Beach, where you'll have 1 hour for lunch on your own and to savor the delicious local seafood cuisine.

    After lunch, we will begin our return journey to Ica, arriving at approximately 4:20 p.m.
    This sightseeing tour is perfect for those seeking nature, unique landscapes, and an unforgettable experience between the sea and the desert.
