Itinerary
We’ll begin the day with our arrival at the Port of Chaco. We’ll have 30 to 40 minutes to have breakfast and use the restrooms (breakfast not included in the price). A perfect break to kick-start your day!
After breakfast, we’ll head to the dock to embark on a fascinating excursion to the Ballestas Islands. During the boat ride, we’ll admire up close the impressive variety of seabirds, such as pelicans, boobies, and gulls, as well as sea lion colonies and the enigmatic Candelabro geoglyph etched into the side of a hill.
After the boat ride, we’ll transfer to ICA and head to the Cultur Pisco restaurant. Here, we’ll have time for lunch (menu not included in the price).
After the break, we’ll begin our exploration of the renowned Cultur Pisco winery. This winery is famous for its production of pisco, the Peruvian grape spirit, and offers visitors the opportunity to sample its products and learn about the pisco production process.
In the afternoon, we’ll head to the Huacachina Oasis for an exciting dune buggy and sandboarding adventure (1 hour). We’ll board dune buggies driven by expert drivers through the vast desert sand dunes, and you’ll be able to practice sandboarding, gliding over the dunes.
Optional Service:
If you have snowboarding experience and would like a professional sandboard, you can request one in advance for an additional cost of $15.00 USD per person. This option can be included in the regular tour time.
Additionally, if you’d like to extend your experience and enjoy a spectacular sunset from the Huacachina dunes, with panoramic views of the oasis and the surrounding landscape, you can add this additional service, which will extend the tour by an additional hour.
