“A day that is close to perfection to be honest. The value for money is incredible with having the boat tour into morning in Paracas finishing off with the headliner that is Huacachina. Huacachina is really a wonder in itself with the sand buggys on the dunes and sand boarding aswell with an incredible sunset. 10/10”

Travel south from Lima with bilingual support from Peru Hop guides such as Joss, Jacquie, and JP. See the Nazca Lines by small aircraft, cruise to sea lions and penguins, ride Huacachina’s dunes, visit a pisco vineyard, and explore Paracas and ancient aqueducts.

“I have been on a lot of tours as a solo traveler, and this one was honestly probably the best one yet. The 2 main issues with tours I find usually are - 1) lack of flexibility, and 2) lack of coordination/communication. The Peru hop team has somehow managed to tackle both extremely well. The unique format where you can choose between a lot of flexible options are awesome (I am sure this adds a lot of logistical work for the team, which is highly appreciated). Also, special shout out to the genuinely amazing tour guides Joss, Jacquie and JP who were pro-active and clear with all communication, and made…”

“ABZOCKE! Diesen 2-Tages-Ausflug kann man sich sparen! Als ich den Trip im Januar gebucht habe, stand auf dem Programm am 1. Tag der Ausflug zu den Ballestas Islands, Pisco Verkostung, und die Huacachina. Anschliessend eine Übernachtung im Hotel mit Pool. Am 2. Tag Sandbuggy + Sandboard sowie der Besuch eines weiteren Pisco Herstellers mit traditioneller Peruanischer Tanzshow. Während wir im März den Ausflug antraten stellte sich heraus, dass man die Tour in den Dünen auch noch am ersten Tag machen kann. Wir entschieden uns ins Hotel zu gehen, da wir den Tag am Pool ausklingen lassen wollten. Das Hotel hatte keinen Pool, nur das Hotel nebenan, was wir gegen Gebühr…”
