About this activity

Escape the city and immerse yourself in Peru’s most iconic coastal and desert landscapes - all in just two unforgettable days.

Start your journey with a wildlife-packed boat tour to the Ballestas Islands, home to playful sea lions, penguins, and even dolphins. Then, stand atop the wind-carved cliffs of the Paracas National Reserve, where the desert meets the sea in breathtaking contrast. On day two, buckle up for an adrenaline-filled ride through the golden dunes of Huacachina, a surreal oasis straight out of a postcard - and top it off with sandboarding thrills or an optional ATV upgrade.

Let us handle the logistics - all transportation and entry fees are included so you can focus on the adventure.
