Join us for a wonderful day along Peru’s southern coast, where you’ll discover the rich biodiversity of the Ballestas Islands, home to sea lion colonies, penguins, and a variety of seabirds. You’ll also admire the impressive Candelabro geoglyph, a mysterious figure reminiscent of the Nazca Lines.

Next, we’ll visit the unique Oasis of Huacachina, with its natural charm, lush vegetation, and scenic boardwalks. From there, adventure awaits as we head deep into the desert for 45 minutes to 1 hour of thrilling buggy rides across the towering dunes, with the chance to try sandboarding.
