Ica, Paracas, and Nazca Lines Tour

2 days / 1 night

The Ica, Paracas, and Nazca Lines Tour is an awe-inspiring journey that’ll take you to the most phenomenal landscapes, archeological artifacts, beautiful islands, and villages of Peru. This journey will have you spellbound with certain sites shrouded in mystery, bordering the unbelievable.

Enveloped in the golden dunes of the Ica desert sits the tiny oasis village of Huacachina, lying 5 km / 3.1 miles from the city of Ica. Huacachina, offering sandboarding, dune buggy tours, one of the best Pisco and wine in all of Peru and a flight over the Nazca lines, is truly every adventure lover’s treat.

The Nazca Lines, located northwest of southern Peru’s Nazca city, are geoglyphs of geometric line drawings, only visible if you’re able to secure an aerial view of the desert land.

On this 2 day tour, you’ll also visit Paracas, a charming coastal town lying 245 km / 152 miles from Peru’s capital, Lima. From Paracas, which is home to hundreds of marine species and ecosystems, you’ll be able to go on a boat tour of the Ballestas Islands and other boat tours which will grant you a glimpse of Peru’s Humbolt penguins, sea lions, and other marine life.
