PERU XPERTS offers you an adventure destination to the fullest by visiting two great PARACAS and ICA attractions on the south coast of PERU, considered the fifth driest place in the world.
The desert and the sea come together in breathtaking landscapes in PARACAS. The Pacific Ocean coast is for those with an interest in archeology, sailing enthusiasts and wildlife watchers. From the Bay of Paracas you can visit the Ballestas Islands, a good alternative for the historical cultural attraction and visit the marine reserve.
ICA has characteristic dunes and fertile fields inhabited by ancient cultures: the Paracas and the Nazca. Valley land, sun, beaches and a Nature Reserve inhabited by a lush variety of flora and fauna, it is also a mysterious land, home of good wine and "pisco", Afro-Peruvian music, and an oasis like Huacachina, a life in the Heart of a blanket of sand.

    This adventure begins from the pick up of your hotel in Lima by a professional driver in a private transport and will be transferred to the PARACAS BAY (03 hours). Upon arrival you will meet our local guide who will take you to the port and board a speedboat to visit the Ballestas Islands, during the excursion to the Islands you will see several places of interest, among them a huge design engraved on the slope of the Hill facing the Pacific Ocean, known to the locals as "The Candelabra", this is a mysterious figure that has an unknown origin today. Another attraction is the thousands of birds found on the islands (guanay boobies, tendrils, pelicans, cormorants and seagulls, among others), as well as hundreds of sea lions on the coast of the beaches and the famous Humboldt penguins. After a boat trip, you will return to the mainland and take a half-hour break so you can have a coffee in the bay or just go shopping at the small craft market in the area.
