The intinerary
Day 1 - Paracas and Overnight Glamping
We pick you up nice and early on our 4x4 fleet and head down to Paracas (with a cheeky stop for freshly-baked cheese filled bread as an extra morning snack).
Once in Paracas we board our boat tour to the Ballestas Islands to enjoy the ocean and its diverse wildlife. Back for lunch, we recharge our batteries before heading into the National Reserve Highlight Tour.
Afterwards venture into the California Desert, where we will jump on sand boogies taken deep into the dessert in an adrenaline packed adventure and finish watching the sunset. At dusk we head to our desert glamping spot to enjoy the comforts of a truly luxurious camp. The evening is spent by the fire and enjoying a delicious BBQ for dinner.
Day 2 - Epic Offroad Expedition
After breakfast we leave the comforts of our luxurious overnight spot, we lower our tyre pressure, ticking all the boxes of our off-road safety prep list, and start our dessert traverse towards the ocean. An epic drive drive will take us through gravel roads, open flatlands and sandy dunes to reach Barlovento, a beach frequented usually by adventurous locals only. This will be our fist stop for a mid-morning snack, a leg stretch and an opportunity to jump into the ocean for those keen to swim in the Pacific. Shortly after we pack up and head north through the dessert to re-enter the Paracas National Reserve from the south end. We follow the coast visiting multiple viewpoint for jaw dropping sites of the incoming waves clashing against the seaside cliffs of the Reserve. We make it through the Reserve and into Paracas town in time for late lunch. After lunch we head back to Lima.
