We will leave Lima very early to begin a trip of around 4 hours to the south, where this Paracas & Huacachina + Ballestas Islands Full Day will take place. The first stop will be at a restaurant in Paracas, where you will have time to have breakfast (not included). Then you will walk to the El Chaco pier, where you will pass through a security checkpoint and embark towards the Ballestas Islands. During the navigation you will have views of the coast, where El Candelabro stands out, a formation in the sand of which there are various theories about its function. You will then arrive at the islands, where you will be able to see the varied marine fauna of the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Peru. Afterwards, you will return to the restaurant where you had breakfast to be part of a ceviche class and tasting, a classic of Peruvian cuisine, recognized worldwide. You will then board the vehicle to begin a 1-hour trip to the city of Ica, to a restaurant where you will be able to have lunch (not included). At this place, you will also be able to tour the vineyard and have a local wine and pisco tasting. Afterwards, you will visit the last place on the tour: the Oasis of Huacachina. In this true postcard of the Peruvian desert landscape, you will have the chance to take a 1-hour ride in buggies and also slide down the sand dunes on sandboards. After this truly adventurous experience and a final tour of the oasis, you will begin the return to Lima, where the activity ends.
