- Nasca Lines - After picking you up, we will go to Paracas city to flight around the famous and enigmatic Nazca Lines. They are a group of very large geoglyphs hand formed/scratched out to make very strong depressions or shallow dirt removals in the dark soil of the Nazca Desert to reveal the very white under layer of rock or clay. These were carved out sometime between 200 AD and possibly 600 AD. There is no written record of the exact dates, but these seem to be a possible time frame. There is no a definitive reason for the carvings; however, numerous theories have been advanced: sculptures to be seen from the surrounding mountains, a big work project to worship they ancestors, or possibly a kind of message for their god so as to have water since the area is dry and it almost does not rain. You will watch the most representative figures such as the hummingbird, spider, monkey, geometrical forms and other mysterious forms.

Great day full of adventures! - What a wonderful day start to finish with my new BFFs, Ronald and Wilton! Communication by the company prior to the excursion was very good with suggestions and prompt responses to my questions. Tour guide, Ronald, and driver, Wilton, were on time. The vehicle was comfortable, clean, and well maintained. We were provided water and helped in and out of the vehicle. Every effort was made to ensure our comfort. Driver was very safe. Our first stop was the oasis for a sand dune buggy ride. The buggy picked us up right at our vehicle. Ronald provided information about the area and ensure we were comfortable with the speed of the ride. The private tour made sure we were comfortable. The buggy driver was very good and safe. I (at 77 years old) did the sand dune board riding. What a kick!! Once again my safety and comfort were attended to. Ronald our guide took many photos through out the day which made things even more memorable. I highly recommend doing the dune ride and boarding! After lunch and the mandatory pisco tasting 😝 ( although we had so much fun doing this as Ronald and Wilton were adorable and so funny). We headed to the Airport to see the Nasca Lines. Ronald did a great job of providing historical context the the Lines so we could understand and appreciate what we were seeing. The small plane ensures everyone has a window seat and the pilot explains the Lines and turns so everyone has an equal opportunity to fully see the sites. The ride is long and rough (1.5 hours of turbulence and turning) so I wish I had taken Dramamine as it was tough. A bit of time for souvenir shopping at the airport then back to the hotel. What a delightful day…great sites enhanced by a wonderful tour guide, Ronald, and driver, Wilton. Highly recommend this tour, company, guide, and driver!

Great tour from Lima - Ron my tour guide and Carlos my driver did a great job taking me on this tour which included a drive to Pisco and Ica along with a wine tour, flight over the Nazca lines and a dune buggy adventure. Ron was a great tour guide sharing a tremendous amount of info on Peru’s history and geology

Great guide, great tour. A bite-size tour about the Peruvian history and culture! - It's a long and busy day, but definitely worth every second. The Nazca Lines are breathtaking... So intriguing and amazing. It can get tricky to spot all of the lines, but there is a leaflet you can follow to guide you and the pilots will point out the figures your should be looking at. The plane journey is safe and the only real way of appreciating the work done by the ancient civilisation of the Incas (if you believe that theory).
The trip to the desert and the Oasis is an adrenaline rush. It's great to go on the sand buggies and to experiment sand boarding. It's so peaceful and nice at the desert, away from the busy cities of Peru.
Finally, ending the tour with a nice meal and a wine/pisco tour is just the perfect conclusion forna great day.
Our guide, Felipe, was amazing. So knowledgeable, went above and beyond with the details and explanations he provided us. Made the whole tour 100 times better. And our driver, Carlos, was great too. Made us waste no time and always in a safe way.
This is a tour that definitely needs to be done, if you want to get a taste of the Peruvian culture and get a sense of the different geography you can find in the country.
100% recommended!

Highly recommend!! - My husband and I highly recommend the private tour to the Nazca lines and Huacachina Oasis with Chasky Xpedition. The team that provided the tour, Felipe, and our driver were exceptional. We were picked up on time and taken from our hotel to the Pisco airport, a several-hour drive in a comfortable SUV. Our driver ensured a very smooth and safe drive. During the drive, Felipe provided helpful background information on the Nazca lines. He is very knowledgeable and can communicate complex concepts in a friendly and understandable manner.
When we arrived at the airport, he took us to the museum and continued explaining what we would see while we waited to receive our seat assignments on the plane.
The Nazca Lines plane flight was a once-in-a-lifetime experience! Upon our return, we drove to the Huacachina Oasis. The dune buggy company and driver provided exceptional service, making our dune buggy ride thrilling and memorable. We ate a delicious lunch. We also did a private tasting at the beautiful Tabernero winery, and Felipe ensured we tasted high-end sipping piscos. We had an excellent drive back to our hotel.
We highly recommend the tour. It’s more expensive than others because you spend less time (hours) on the road, and the plane flight is more expensive since it’s from a closer airport to Lima. However, it was well worth it! It is a first-class tour.

Awesome trip, would definitely do it again! - The entire trip was wonderful! Ronald, our tour guide was probably the most knowledgeable tour guide I’ve had in any country and on any trip. He should be a college professor with his amount of knowledge!
I would book a tour, just knowing that he would be the tour guide, because it would be a wonderful and enlightening experience!

Unforgettable Adventure: A Must-Do Tour with Ronald! - What an amazing tour! Even though it was an early start, Ronald kept us entertained and taught us so much throughout the day. This is truly a bucket list trip and an absolute must-do, with so many exciting experiences along the way! Don’t be afraid to go down the dune on a snowboard—it’s an absolute blast!

Rich experience to the Oasis, Sand Dunes, and the Nazca Lines! - Felipe and Carlos were great guides and hosts on this extensive tour. Felipe explained every leg of the journey, was enthusiastic about the history and stories of the places we visited, and showed us additional places along the way to give a rich experience of Peru. The Nazca Lines are worth the trip! The oasis, desert and sandboarding were particularly memorable. Carlos and Felipe were thoughtful, informative, and made the trip relaxed, even through Lima traffic. Highly recommend this tour!

The most convenient tour for Nazca Lines and Huacachuna - Expensive but totally worth it! Very professional and organized. Great communication with the company. Very flexible, offered options, since this tour is private for your group only. We saved time by flying to Nazca from Pisco, a 3h drive from Lima, instead of having to drive 7h to Nazca to take the flight to see the lines. Pick up and drop off were both on time. Knowledgeable tour guide and safe driver. Felipe and Wilton made our trip one of the best experiences in Perú.

Maybe go with a more established tour operator - Tour company cancelled because they claimed "safety reasons" of the aircraft, but we all know it was because not enough people signed up for the tour. They provided a full refund, but it was a pain in the neck to meet up with them because they wanted to give me cash back instead of refunding to credit card.
