day 1 - Lima - Paracas, Peru
Your Peruvian adventure begins with an early morning pickup from your accommodation in the cultural hubs of Miraflores, Barranco, or San Isidro. As you leave the bustle of Lima, embrace the changing scenery on your way to Paracas, arriving in time to see the town awaken. At 11:00 am, you'll venture into the awe-inspiring landscapes of the Paracas National Reserve. Here, witness the striking contrast between the desert and the ocean. Gaze at the breathtaking Playa Roja, one of the few red-sand beaches on the Peruvian coast, a result of ancient volcanic activity. Wander through the serene environments of Playa Yumaque and eventually unwind at Lagunilla Beach, where you'll have the opportunity to savour local cuisine (lunch at your own expense). After an afternoon of exploring and relaxation, you'll return from your tour and settle in at your hotel, where the rest of the evening is yours to enjoy.
day 2 - Paracas - Ica - Lima, Peru
Begin your day with a delightful breakfast before being picked up from your accommodation. You'll meet with your group and embark on an exciting tour to the Islas Ballestas. A speedboat with dual outboard motors will whisk you away to these enchanting islands, the most significant wildlife sanctuary along the Peruvian coast. Here, you'll have the chance to observe sea lions, boobies, pelicans, penguins, and a variety of other seabirds for a couple of hours.
After this captivating experience, you'll be transported to Ica, where you'll visit a renowned winery. Enjoy some leisure time to indulge in a delightful lunch, choosing from a carefully provided menu.
In the afternoon, continue your journey to the oasis of Huacachina. You'll have some free time to explore this unique setting before gearing up for an adventurous tour of buggy rides and sandboarding, perfectly timed to watch the sunset.
As the evening draws in, you'll begin the journey back to Lima, arriving in the late evening where you'll be dropped off at your accommodation, marking the end of an exhilarating day.
