An amazing place to visit. We managed to do a bike ride through the reserve was really easy to organise and a great day biking around. Just leave early before the heat sets in

Islas Ballestas

If you are travelling on a cruise and passes through Paracas, don't miss this opportunity and visit the Ballestas islands. This tour is for all visitors who are landing at San Martin Port where you can enjoy a half day trip around the beautiful Islands. You will be able to spot thousands of marine species such as, penguins, sea lions, sea birds, dolphins and many other species.

It was a privilege to visit these islands by boat early in the morning. Our trip left from the hotel jetty. We had a chance to see the Nazca "candelabra " up close which was a nice add on to our flight over the Lines a few days before. The islands of course are brimming with bird life and the boat was able to get quite close to the cliffs to watch them.Quite bizarre having a tiny Humboldt penguin and an enormous pelican in the same photo! There is plenty of opportunity to see the sea lions basking…there are hundreds of them, including babies. The history of this place is interesting too. At one time the value of the Guano ( bird poo) was worth more as a fertiliser to the Peruvian economy than gold! No-one is allowed to land on the islands apart from the wardens who stay there for three months at a time. They are a protected site. I have not been to the Galapagos islands, but my trip to Ballestas must surely have been nearly as good?

Playa Roja

Reviewed By DonCesar - Nuremberg, Germany

Great looking beach. No one there and I am not sure if it’s possible to just let there or if it’s supposed to be only to look and not to lay there. Amazing landscape.

Atrévete a descubrir las profundidades y secretos del Cañón de los Perdidos, un majestuosos atractivo ubicado en el distrito de Santiago y a casi 2 horas del centro de Ica.

Reviewed By JulienMordret - Villecresnes, France

A really nice experience deep into the desert, we were alone. We went with a private car and driver arranged by our Huacachina hotel. A beautiful natural site that will for sure get more popular in the coming years, I think you should go ASAP if you want to enjoy the exploratory feel of the tour!

Oasis of Huacachina

Reviewed By Guide725654 - Philadelphia, United States

We stopped here on a day trip from Lima, and unfortunately we only had a short time to visit, but it was absolutely worth it. I mean, IT'S AN OASIS. I've never seen anything like this in person, and it's exactly what you'd see in a movie. There's a lagoon surrounded by trees, park, promenades, and shops. And the oasis is surrounded by sand dunes, which you can climb to get an overall view and terrific photos. Besides shopping, eating, drinking, and lounging, there are paddle boats on the lagoon and plenty of dune buggy and sand boarding outfitters. I expect it would be a nice place to spend a day or two. But just for the novelty of it, don't pass by without at least a short visit.
