Reviews
Our family of 4 did this awesome day trip. It was an extremely long day, we started at 5:15am and got back to the hotel at 12 midnight. Our tour guide Luis was very attentive the entire time. He spoke excellent English and was always ready to answer questions. The pick up in the morning was very well coordinated and prompt. The bus was very comfortable, the wifi worked the entire day as did the charging port in the seat handle to charge our phones. This tour was THE BEST experience! The Ballestas Islands are beautiful. The tour operators ensured we visited a few islands to view so much wildlife. We saw sea lions, penguins, pelicans, and a million other birds. The highlight was the Huacachina dessert. The dune buggy ride was insanely fun! My 8 and 9 year olds loved it. Luis instructed us well to keep them in the inside seats and always wear their helmets. The driver we got was great! The sand boarding was the highlight for my children. And of course we waited for the gorgeous sunset to take incredible photos! We did have a toast with red wine at sunset and all in all we returned to Lima tired but fully satisfied. I highly recommend this tour for anyone wishing to make some special memories.
I had a wonderful time. My guide was amazing . Thank you for the fun experienced
Se state pianificando una visita a Paracas, non posso che raccomandare questo tour con tutto l'entusiasmo possibile! Abbiamo vissuto una giornata davvero eccezionale, immersi nella bellezza mozzafiato dove il deserto incontra l'oceano. Il vero valore aggiunto di tutta l'esperienza, però, è stata senza dubbio la nostra guida, Luis. Preparatissimo, simpatico e mosso da una passione contagiosa per il suo lavoro e per la sua terra, Luis ha saputo trasformare una semplice escursione in un'avventura perfetta. Ci ha raccontato aneddoti affascinanti, ha risposto a tutte le nostre curiosità con grande pazienza e si è assicurato che ogni momento fosse curato nei minimi dettagli, facendoci scoprire scorci che da soli non avremmo mai notato. Organizzazione impeccabile, paesaggi da sogno e una guida eccezionale che fa davvero la differenza. Grazie mille Luis per aver reso la nostra tappa a Paracas così speciale. Consigliatissimo al 100%!
