- El Chaco - Following breakfast, the group will proceed to the pier to embark on a boat trip to the Ballestas Islands, where sea lions, seabirds, and the Candelabra geoglyph can be observed.
Important: In the event of adverse weather, access to the islands may be restricted for safety reasons. If this occurs, the Paracas National Reserve or Isla Blanca will be visited as an alternative. This decision is typically made on the day of the tour, shortly before departure.
- Islas Ballestas - After breakfast, the group will head to the pier for an exciting excursion to the Ballestas Islands. During the boat journey, participants will have the chance to see a remarkable variety of seabirds, including pelicans, boobies, and seagulls, as well as observe sea lion colonies in their natural habitat.
Before reaching the islands, there will be an opportunity to view the enigmatic Candelabra geoglyph, etched into a hillside facing the sea.
- CULTURPISCO - At the conclusion of the boat trip, the group will travel to the city of Ica to visit the Cultur Pisco restaurant, where there will be free time for lunch (lunch not included in the price).
After the break, a guided tour of the famous Cultur Pisco winery will commence, known for producing pisco, the iconic Peruvian grape distillate. During the tour, participants can sample various types and learn about the production process, from harvest to distillation.
- Huacachina Oasis - In the afternoon, the group will transfer to the Huacachina Oasis for an exhilarating experience with buggies and a sandboarding tour. Aboard powerful, expertly driven buggies, the group will explore the majestic dunes of the Iquican desert. Participants will have the chance to try sandboarding, gliding down the sandy slopes in a unique adventure.
With some luck, the day will conclude with a breathtaking view of the sunset over the dunes, offering a stunning panorama of the desert’s golden landscape and the oasis’s beauty.
- Miraflores - Finally, after enjoying all the planned activities, the group will return to their hotel or Airbnb in Lima. Please note that the tour concludes between 11:00 p.m. and 12:00 a.m., so if a flight is scheduled for the same night, it is advisable to take precautions.
If the flight is between 11:00 p.m. and 12:00 a.m., it is recommended to book a private tour for comfort, flexibility, and punctuality in returning.
