Itinerary

Paracas: A green destination in Peru

Hotel Pick-up / Meeting Point:
The tour begins with the pick-up of passengers from hotels located in the districts of Miraflores, San Isidro, Barranco, Downtown Lima, and Surco, or from the previously agreed meeting point.
El Chaco - Paracas
Our next stop will be the Paracas Pier, known as “El Chaco”, the starting point of this unforgettable experience. From here we will board a modern speedboat that will take us towards the impressive Ballestas Islands.
During the trip we will navigate through waters influenced by the cold Pacific current, a privileged ecosystem that hosts an extraordinary marine biodiversity. We will witness colonies of sea lions, guano birds, and other species that find in these islands a unique natural sanctuary in Peru.
Ballestas Islands
We will take a panoramic tour around the Ballestas Islands, a group of rock formations located off the coast of Paracas, recognized for their extraordinary natural richness.
During the navigation we will observe colonies of sea lions in their natural habitat, as well as the emblematic Humboldt Penguin, in addition to numerous guano birds that fly over and inhabit these islands. We will also observe mollusks and a great diversity of marine species that make this ecosystem one of the most important along the Peruvian coast.
Pisco Route
We will continue our experience traveling through the impressive Ica desert, until entering the traditional fields of one of the most recognized wine estates in the region. In this setting full of history and tradition, we will learn about the production process of authentic Peruvian pisco: from grape cultivation and harvest, to the artisanal distillation that gives life to our national drink.
Huacachina
Finally, we will visit the spectacular Huacachina Oasis, considered one of the few natural oases in the Americas. This impressive landscape combines majestic golden dunes with the emerald-green waters of its lagoon, creating a unique setting in the middle of the desert.
Huacachina is the perfect place for adventure lovers. Here you can experience the thrill of sandboarding down the dunes, as well as enjoy an unforgettable ride in dune buggies, traveling at full speed across the natural formations of the Ica desert.
