Aventura

The Paracas – Ica – Nasca route is a fascinating journey that combines Peru’s coast, desert, and ancient history. Over two days, we explore the Paracas National Reserve and its islands, home to sea lions, penguins, and seabirds. We also visit the magical Huacachina Oasis, a paradise of rolling dunes perfect for adventure sports like sandboarding and buggy rides. Finally, we soar over the mysterious Nasca Lines, ancient geoglyphs etched into the desert sands. This itinerary offers nature, culture, and adrenaline all in one trip, with expert guides and carefully selected activities for a safe and memorable experience on Peru’s southern coast.
