Overview

The Ballestas Islands, Huacachina, and Desert Sunset Private Tour is an experience that combines the best of the Peruvian coast and desert. You’ll begin sailing among sea lions and birds on the Ballestas Islands, then explore the famous Huacachina oasis and experience the adrenaline rush of the dunes with a magical desert sunset. You’ll also visit the historic Hacienda Caravedo, recognized as the oldest distillery in the Americas, where you’ll learn about the Peruvian pisco-making process and enjoy a tasting. If you’re looking for more desert adventures, you can join our Sandboarding and Sandsky Pro tour in Huacachina. We also recommend the Palomino Islands Yacht Tour to swim with sea lions in Lima, or the comprehensive 10-day tour of Peru, which combines the coast, desert, and Andes in a single itinerary.
