Paracas Ica Full day Tour
Overview
Embark on a unique adventure with Machu Picchu Explorators, where excitement and nature combine in an unparalleled experience. We will begin our tour by picking up passengers from their hotels in Miraflores, San Isidro, and nearby areas. Head to Paracas, home to impressive marine biodiversity and one of the most spectacular destinations in southern Peru.
Our first stop will be at the Paracas Tourist Port, where we will board speedboats to enjoy a tour of the Ballestas Islands. This archipelago, part of the Paracas Marine Reserve, is the second largest in South America and a refuge for various species, including sea lions, Humboldt penguins, dolphins, and a wide variety of guano birds such as pelicans and boobies. Along the way, don't miss the famous Candelabra, a mysterious geoglyph reminiscent of the enigmatic Nazca lines.
After this fascinating marine experience, we will head to a winery, where you will learn about the process of making pisco, Peru's flagship drink. The tour will continue with an optional lunch (not included) to recharge your batteries before heading to the magical Huacachina Lagoon, an oasis in the middle of the desert. Here, you will enjoy an exciting buggy ride through the high dunes and the opportunity to try sandboarding.
At the end of this day full of adrenaline and natural beauty, you will have time to shop before returning to your hotel or the Ica terminal. A perfect tour for lovers of nature, adventure, and culture, all with the Machu Picchu Explorators seal of approval!
