A very nice trip but one u can plan yourself - A very fun trip if u are in Lima But one u can plan yourself , there is a bus service to and from Lima that is about 3.5 hours Once there it is a pretty small city u just need to get to the port where it is very easy to buy a ticket for the boat ride But a really fun trip and one that is very worth it , and fun to see Nice animals and fun boat ride but one where is the guide is very important to have on the boat Then will be another 3.5 hour bus back , also the buses are quite nice with tv screens in each seat The chairs are very comfortable and easy to sleep in
