Embark on a captivating journey from Lima to discover the mesmerizing Islas Ballestas and the enchanting oasis of Huacachina. Experience the serenity of nature's wonders, from the marine sanctuary teeming with wildlife at Islas Ballestas to the tranquil desert oasis of Huacachina. This tour promises unparalleled scenic beauty and unforgettable memories. On this tour, we get the chance to explore a natural site located south of Lima. We'll have the unique experience of visiting one of the country's most beautiful beaches and the incredible oasis of Huacachina.

We will travel 245 kilometers along the Panamericana Sur until we reach Paracas, a tourist resort in the province of Pisco. Along the way, we'll have a short stop in the city of Chincha to use the facilities and/or enjoy a typical breakfast from the city (optional). We continue our journey until we reach our destination, Paracas, at approximately 7:45 am.

We'll see the famous Candelabro, a vast petroglyph located in the Independence Bay, Paracas. As we travel 30 minutes further out to sea, we'll witness the marine biodiversity of the Ballestas Islands, such as: guano and marine birds like the famous Peruvian Booby, Guanay Cormorant, Red-legged Cormorant, Peruvian Tern, Peruvian Pelican, Humboldt Penguin, sea lions, and dolphins. After a 2-hour tour, we'll return to the private port of Independence Bay to continue with our next excursion. Between 10:00 to 10:30 am, we'll depart for the city of Ica.

Award-winning national wineries. Here we'll learn how wine and pisco are made traditionally and have a tasting of the cellar's spirits.

This is a natural oasis located five kilometers west of the city of Ica, surrounded by immense dunes and emerald green waters. Around it, there's abundant vegetation consisting of palms, eucalyptus (introduced species), and the Huarango carob tree, which serves as a resting place for migratory birds that pass through this region. Here, we'll enjoy a 1 hour 30-minute BUGGY (dune buggy) tour, ideal for those who love the feeling of speed, adrenaline, and the wind brushing against their faces, and who don't mind getting covered in sand as our BUGGY climbs and descends the dunes. After the tour, we'll return to the Huaca-china Oasis, where you can stroll around the resort and take photos.

At 6:30 pm, we'll depart from Ica, heading back to Lima, arriving at approximately 10:30 pm.
