Paracas and The Nazca Lines Trips & Tours

A mere three hours south of Lima, Paracas feels like a different world. Here, stunning desert landscapes sit next to coastal views, and rugged cliffs drop straight into the deep blue of the Pacific Ocean. In the Paracas National Reserve and the famous Ballestas Islands, the movie-like magic continues as you're greeted by huge colonies of sea lions, Humboldt penguins, Peruvian boobies, pink flamingos and huge Candelabra geoglyph. Make your way inland and explore the Huacachina oasis, before taking a buggy and sand-boarding adventure around the massive desert sand dunes, or hop on a quad bike to explore further afield. And, when you’re done with land and sea, take to the skies and fly over the mysterious Nazca lines, where hundreds of enormous geoglyphs dating back to pre-Columbian times have been carved into the desert sands - and everyone’s still trying to figure out why.
