Embark on a full-day tour from Lima to the Ballestas Islands, Huacachina, and Ica. Enjoy a boat ride to the Ballestas Islands, a winery visit, a pisco tasting, and a dune buggy and sandboarding tour in Huacachina.
After your early morning pickup, stop at a local bakery to grab a snack for the journey. Upon arriving in Paracas, head to El Chaco port in Paracas Bay. From there, board a modern boat to sail to the Ballestas Islands and enjoy stunning views of the landscape.
While sailing, keep an eye out for marine wildlife, including sea lions, Humboldt penguins, guanays (black cormorants), and various seabirds. Next, it’s time for lunch at the “NIETO” winery, where you can dine in their restaurant.
After your meal, enjoy a pisco tasting experience. A guide will show you how Peruvian pisco is made, and you'll have the chance to sample the different varieties produced locally.
Then, continue on to Ica (Huacachina) and take a peaceful stroll around the scenic lake. Get ready for an adrenaline rush with a dune buggy and sandboarding tour in Huacachina, starting with an exhilarating 4x4 ride across the dunes with a skilled driver.
Once you reach the top, you can try your hand at sandboarding. On the way back, make a final stop at “Racimo de Uva,” where you can pick up snacks or souvenirs, including wine, pisco, traditional cookies, and other Peruvian treats. You’ll return to Lima around 10:30 PM.
