Description
Discover an oasis in the middle of the desert and a city with plenty of charm on our Ica and Huacahina Day Trip. We'll also visit the rugged Ballestas Islands.
Having picked you up from your chosen meeting point at the scheduled time, we'll set off for Paracas. We'll make a brief stop to rest and, once we arrive at our destination, you can have breakfast on your own.
Once we've arrived at the dock in Paracas, we'll board a speedboat headed for the Ballestas Islands. As well as their incredible wildlife, which includes sea lions, Humboldt penguins and pelicans, we'll see the famous Paracas Candelabra geoglyph.
After the boat ride, we'll go to Ica. Here, we'll visit a local winery and learn all about the production of Ica wine and pisco. We'll also enjoy a tasting of different regional products.
Next, we'll visit the breathtaking Huacachina Oasis. When we get there, you'll be able to admire the peculiar landscape or use your free time to do some of the activities offered by the locals, such as sandboarding and buggy tours.
We'll then make our way back to Lima and arrive at 10:30 pm.
