Ica, Perú
FULL DAY TOUR HUACACHINA
16 hours | Languages: Spanish and English
Ready for the adventure of a lifetime? Join us for an exhilarating sandboarding experience in the stunning Oasis of Huacachina, one of the world’s most unique and iconic sand-ski resorts. Whether you’re a seasoned boarder or a complete beginner, our all-inclusive tour is designed to provide an unforgettable day of thrills, cultural experiences, and breathtaking scenery.
Our adventure begins bright and early when we pick you up from your accomodation in Lima and leave the bustling city behind on a scenic 4-hour drive to Ica. There, we’ll immerse ourselves in the rich Peruvian culture with a pisco experience. You’ll learn about the history and production of Peru’s national spirit and enjoy a tasting session to sample its unique flavors. Afterward, we’ll treat you to a fabulous lunch, offering a taste of local cuisine in a delightful setting.
Next, we head to the breathtaking Oasis of Huacachina, a small town built around a picturesque lagoon and surrounded by towering sand dunes. You’ll have some free time to stroll around this natural wonder and snap some incredible photos that are sure to make your friends and family back home jealous. Then we’ll gear up for the main event: professional sandboarding! We’ll provide all the necessary equipment, including sandboards, boots, and helmets, and our expert guides will offer a step-by-step introduction to ensure you’re comfortable and ready to tackle the dunes.
A dune buggy will be waiting to whisk us away to the most spectacular dunes in the Huacachina desert. Feel the rush of adrenaline as you ride down massive 200-meter-high sand slopes, with our guides there to support and cheer you on. This is not your typical tourist experience – we focus on providing an exclusive adventure away from the crowds, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the beauty and excitement of the desert.
As the day winds down, we’ll gather to watch a magical desert sunset, painting the sky in hues of orange, pink, and purple. It’s the perfect way to end an action-packed day and capture those final Instagram-worthy moments. After sunset, we’ll start our journey back to Lima, ensuring you return safely to your hotel or Airbnb with memories to last a lifetime.
For groups larger than four, we offer private transportation to ensure a comfortable and personalized experience.
