Huacachina: fun, scenery and an exceptional guide - We had an amazing experience in Huacachina with Mr. Antonio. From the beginning it was very friendly, punctual and professional. It made us feel safe and well taken care of throughout the tour. His knowledge of the area and his good energy made the experience even more special.
We really enjoyed the walk, especially the dunes and the spectacular views. Everything was very well organized and exceeded our expectations. We certainly recommend Mr. Antonio to anyone who wants to live an unforgettable experience in Huacachina.
Thank you so much for everything!

Great day trip to Ica and Paracas - From start to finish a great day had by myself & my wife. We were met by our guide Edgar and our driver Antonio. We travelled for about an hour where we had breakfast made from fresh bread with five different fillings. This was a good start to the day. We we then travelled for 2 1/2 hours to reach Paracas where we joined a boat to see the sites about 30 minutes boat ride to see the sea lions and sea birds sadly no penguins. On our return after two hours, we were met by our guide and travelled to Ica. We had a fantastic experience on the dunes in our buggy, the heights of the dunes were breathtaking. Following the 60 minute dune buggy ride. We were met by our Driver who then took us on to our next location to have lunch and sampling Pisco wine. Great experience but sadly we had to leave to return back to our hotel in Lima. This was a four hour ride. Our Driver Antonio was such a safe driver and was not phased by the drivers on the road which were called in havoc we were told this was normal for Peruvian driving. Felt safe all day thanks to both Antonia and Edgar our guide for a great day.

Amazing Experience!! - We had an incredible experience touring Peru with this company and can’t recommend them enough. My husband and I did the Paracas boat tour followed by dune buggying and sand skiing/boarding in Huacachina, and every part of the trip was thoughtfully planned and executed.
The natural beauty of Peru is truly breathtaking, and this tour gave us front-row seats to it all. Our guide, Edgar, was outstanding. Incredibly knowledgeable, warm, and easy to talk to, he made the whole experience feel like we were traveling with a well-informed friend rather than just being guided through an itinerary.
Transportation was another highlight. The vehicle was spotless, comfortable, and well maintained, and our driver was excellent. Everything felt very professional, organized, and smooth from start to finish, which allowed us to fully relax and enjoy the adventure.
The only small thing I’d note is that it would have been helpful to know ahead of time that cash payment is preferred upfront. By the end of a long and exciting day, having to make a couple of ATM stops while exhausted wasn’t ideal. That said, this was a minor inconvenience in an otherwise fantastic experience.
Overall, this was a wonderful tour with a great team, and we’re so glad we chose them. If you’re considering exploring Paracas and Huacachina, you’ll be in excellent hands. 🌊🏜️✨

The best experience in life. Amazing place, with the best agency. - A unique experience, Antonio was always attentive to us, at all times.
You don’t have to worry about anything but enjoying yourself, the experience of sleeping in the desert is something you can’t miss.

Great Private Tour to Paracas, Huacachina and Vineyards - In November 2025 my boyfriend and I booked the private tour to Paracas, Huacachina and Vineyards.
We really enjoyed the tour and it was exactly what we expected.
We had a very nice guide! As it was one of our first days in Peru, our guide showed us a lot of local fruits, vegetables and dishes that we should try.
The driver was also very friendly and drove accurately and safe.
