Make this Trip a Priority. - This really is a must-do experience for when you are staying in Lima. The pickup and dropoff was just as advertised. We got picked up from our hotel in Miraflores around 4am and dropped off around 11pm. The buses are nice. Nothing super fancy but the seats are comfy and roomy enough to sleep in, and they have AC. Our guide Jordan was great. He was very knowledgeable and educated us on each leg of the trip. He was clear with instructions and when/where to meet each time we went to a new place. He kept everything on time and was funny and easy to talk to. Jordan es mi amigo! My favorite part of the trip was the dune buggy/sand-boarding in Huacachina. The oasis is beautiful and the sunset was amazing. That said, the boat ride/Ballestas islands and the Isco tasting was also perfect. It is definitely a long day, so just be prepared to get to sleep early the night before. I’d suggest having some snacks packed (or buying something on one of the stops). Being a jacket but also (depending on time of year) be prepared for hot weather in Huacachina. I started with long sleeves and a light jacket (needed for boat ride) but then changed into short sleeves when we went for the Pisco tasting. Again, if you have more than 1 day in Lima, this is a must-do activity/tour. You’ll be tired by the end of the day, but it’s well worth it to have this experience and create memories that will last forever. Thanks again to Jordan and everyone for coordinating a magical experience!

1 Day Tour of Costa Rica Oasis and Ballestas Islands - I had an amazing experience on this tour. Being my first time in the country, the Guide made me feel very comfortable from the beginning. He was friendly throughout and made sure we made the most of the time, allowing us to see and enjoy more than expected. His knowledge of the place and attention to detail really made a difference. It gave me a lot of confidence, and I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants a worry-free and well-guided experience.

Desert, Oasis, sandboarding. - I was in Lima for work, and couldn’t really take adventures that would put at risk my business stay. This trip had been a great choice: picked and brought back to the tour hotel, we reached as far as 250km south to Lima. Great start in the morning with the sea lions and Ballestas islands, then Pisco tour but the icing on the cake was being driven like crazy in the desert, starting from an oasis and once in the deep desert, we also used boards as of “snow sleds”.

Excellent !!! - Fantastic!!!!! Best part of the tour? Guide Davi. He certainly enjoys his work and does it with affection. The tour service was also excellent!! We delayed longer than planned for the return, I was the last one to be returned to the hotel and arrived at 12 pm. The delay was because at the time of return we had to meet some passengers coming from another destination (Nazca) The rest was very organized and the activities excellent. The top notch lunch and excellent tasting! Second best? The sanbord and the amazing sunset in the dunes

Landscapes, gastronomy and adrenaline in one day! - Of the most beautiful excursions we did in Peru! While it is true that it is very long, lasting almost a whole day, the trip became very enjoyable. The Guide, Jordan, was always very attentive to the group, providing information and taking care that we are all at ease. Transportation was in excellent condition, comfortable enough to make such a trip smoothly, and the driver also excellent. The excursions to Islas Ballestas, lunch in Cultur Pisco and the visit to Huacachina are very beautiful experiences and that combined with each other create a unique and truly unforgettable day!

Amazing Nature - The walk was great! One thing that could improve is the bus, because our air conditioning was failing, so we spent a lot of heat along the way. We were also not warned that the buggy driver asks for a drawer... Being a day trip, it's exhausting, but nothing that disabnes.
