From visiting little islands with penguins to riding in a buggy in the sand dunes of Huacachina it was just amazing! - Every part was amazing. The wines with pisco were delicious. Buggy in sand dunes was an unforgettable experience. Looking at little penguins and sea lions with a tour of the little islands was a fun start. Our tour guides were also very attentive to everyone and kept the group on time without rushing. Everything was smoothly executed and kept it all pretty fun. Our tour guide Paul did the tour in English and Spanish so everyone was included.
Lunch and breakfast was not included but we stopped at two really good places to get food. Not too expensive but remember to bring cash ( SOLES ) for bathroom and food.
Only down part would be this spot we stopped to buy some chocolates in. I didn’t have enough cash and I asked to pay with card. The girl who helped me told me it would be a 50% extra charge. Now I’ve been in Peru for the past 3 weeks and I know the charge for credit card is only 5% since most places accept credit cards. But of a scam on pricing since another lady told me the complete opposite after, but get the free samples it’s pretty good.
Tips:
• Bring Soles
• Bring a really warm jacket for the boat tour
• Bring Water and Snacks
• Bring a face cover and sunglasses (for sand dunes)
• It’s warm in the sand dunes so also bring a shirt.

Best day trip from Lima - This day trip was so fun and diverse. The trip out to Balleras was amazing with awesome wildlife, the Pisco tasting was a cultural experience and the sand buggy experience at the Dunes was truly memorable and once in a lifetime. Our tour guide, Mar, took time to explain the tour in English despite being the only English speakers. Overall, amazing value and a memorable day.

An unforgettable experience - They're great human beings. They are tourism professionals. And they make a real experience. One thing I value about this experience is that you’re not asking for tips for every activity you’ve actually already paid for. It is certainly obligatory and sincerely economical.
