The tour begins in a producer of wine and pisco, products that have made the valleys of the Ica desert famous. Then, we will visit the Regional Museum of Ica where we will appreciate the evolution of the five most representative cultures of the region such as Paracas, Nazca, Wari, Ica Chincha and Inca. Thereafter is a visit to the sanctuary of the Lord of Luren, a dark-skinned saint from Ica, whose carvedimage was made in Spain in the year 1556. On the third Monday of October each year the image is taken from the church and carried through the streets of Ica accompanied by hundreds of devotees. Finally, you will visit Lake Huacachina. Originally an oasis in the middle of the desert, the lake is one of Ica´s major attractions. It is surrounded by large sand dunes and offers a variety of optional services: from good food to an adrenalin-stimulating sand buggy ride through the desert.
