An experience you’ll never forget - Our tour operator Alex and driver Elvis ran a very tight ship. They were always on time and ensured everyone else was too. Alex’s knowledge of the local area meant that we were treated to local knowledge. Everything from the Ballasted island tour to lunch and pisco tasting and then Huacachina with sand duning was well thought out. The sand boarding and sand duning in a dune buggy was amazing and watching the sunset with no other tourists present was incredible. I have already recommended this tour to other travellers and will continue to recommend this amazing tour.

Super well-organised day of adventure - Brilliant day, the most organised trip I’ve been on, particularly the WhatsApp group for pick-up keeping us well informed. The day was packed full of adventure but very nicely paced, with time to soak up the places between. I really liked that everything was booked and there were no added extra spends that popped up on the day. The bus seats reclined nicely to get some sleep after the early start. George was amazing, super friendly and full of knowledge (we particularly enjoyed hearing about the history and the pisco talk at the beautiful vineyard), and he sent us loads of information on the group, took lots of photos and videos and sent them on to us, he really makes this tour! In terms of the actual activities, the wildlife in Ballestas was beautiful, and the desert is outstanding with the super exhilarating buggy and sand boarding. The pisco and wine tasting (which we didn’t realise was all included) was also very fun- salud! The included lunch was delicious, and it was really handy being able to organise breakfast and dinner while on the trip, with well-priced options, to start and end the day also! A more expensive day trip for us, but we thought it was definitely worth it!

Diversified and beautiful excursion - We were able to see penguins and sea lions on the Baltas Islands. The visit to the vineyard was refreshing, we tasted 5 different types of pisco and ate a meal. The most beautiful experience was to go boarding/skiing on the sandy slopes (7-8 descents, lift with buggy, with the local company dito sand xsports - it must be specified during the Reservation because it is a small amount extra) and to admire the desert sunset. Thanks to Guide Fernando for his enthusiasm, interesting information and impeccable organization of the excursion.

Paracas - We as a family had an amazing day! The coordination was flawless. The tour guide Edwin and driver Gandi were very kind and welcoming even though we were a little late in the morning. Whatever the kids asked, they always answered with a smile and with the best attitude. Edwin went down with us sand boarding and helped us all the way! Doing this long dreamed trip to Peru has been super easy with Lima Experience! the followup, the constant updated information and multiple persons available has made us feel very secured.

Fantastic full day adventure for our family in Paracas and Huacachina dunes! - Awesome experience. Started early which my teens were not thrilled about. We did a private trip but you don’t need to do that. We did the atvs (dune buggies) instead of the boat near Paracas and it was awesome. We had the desert to ourselves. Cool vistas. Lunch and other activities were great. Huacachina blew the experience out of the water… er sand dune. Massive Dune racers and boarding (skiing) downhill was a treat. Long day AND thrilled we ended our trip doing it. Loved George and this that out the trip together and helped during the day. Cherry on top of our vacation week here in Peru.

Paracus private tour - I booked a private trip with Lima experience a day before the actual trip took place. It was a very smooth experience. Our guide George was great and we got a lot of information about Peru from him. Paracus was beautiful and the trip was extremely well-organized. I will definitely suggest my friends to visit Peru and book Lima experience as their operator.
