Recommended! - It was one of the best experiences. The agency team helped us coordinate everything from pickup to Return. They gave us a nice sourvenir to use in the desert to cover the sand and gave us a free beer to watch the sunset. The driver was very friendly. On the sandboard side at the start I was a little scared and he helped me launch.

Amazing value for money - I do think there is anything with a better value for money ratio. I do not know if other trips are equally exciting or not, but once in Peru this is a "must do". I took the skiing option and it was fun. But even if you take the body boarding, it is still amazing.

I recommend it without problem
The view is breathtaking, the buggy in the sand top. I thought sunboarding would suck but it was too good and the kids loved it

Awesome sand dune adventure for our family of four with teens - You have to experience this trip! It was easy to book for our family of 4 with 2 teens. Ica discovery Tours arranged pickup at our hotel, was very organized, and our dune buggy tour driver Armando was the best! We sandboarded 4 times and were all thrilled by the ride over the dunes in the buggy. Views are spectacular and we were taken to several different lookout points. Sunset was amazing and so were the final evening pics of the oasis. Loved every minute!

Dune buggy ride and... - Dune buggy ride and sandboarding/skiing was amazing!! So much fun and the views were epic. Only complaints would be that we only went down dunes 3 times and spent a while riding in the buggy (Fun in its own sense). It was also not clear that the only thing included was a sand sled and once we arrived we had to pay extra if we wanted a snowboard or skiis to use. Well worth the extra money and the owner included a taxi back to our hostel which quickly helped dissolve any annoyance.
