  • Las Islas Ballestas
    After breakfast, we will head to the pier to board a boat to the Ballestas Islands, where we will observe sea lions, seabirds and the geoglyph of the Candelabra. Important: In case of bad weather, access to the islands may be restricted by security. If it happens, we will visit the Paracas National Reserve or Isla Blanca as an alternative. This decision is usually made the same day, shortly before boarding.
  • At the end of the boat trip, we will head towards the city of Ica to visit the restaurant Cultur Pisco, where we will have free time for lunch (lunch not included in the price). After the break, we will start a guided tour of the renowned winery Cultur Pisco, famous for the elaboration of pisco, the emblematic distillate of Peruvian grapes. During the tour, we can taste its different varieties and get to know the production process, from harvest to distillation.

On board powerful buggies, expertly conducted, we will tour the imposing dunes of the Iquican desert. You will have the opportunity to practice sandboarding, sliding through the sandy hills in a unique adventure. With a little luck, we will finish the day with an unforgettable view of the sunset on the dunes, from where you can admire the golden landscape of the desert and the beauty of the oasis in all its glory.

Please note that the tour ends between 11:00 p.m. and 12:00 a.m., so if you have a flight scheduled the same night, we recommend you take precautions.
