Beschrijving
Explore two of Peru's natural wonders like never before. Sail near a vast colony of sea lions and explore deserts and cliffs that blend into the Pacific.
Your experience begins at the meeting point in Paracas (Office), followed by a direct transfer to the port. There, you'll board a speedboat accompanied by an expert guide fluent in both Spanish and English. Together, you'll head out into the ocean toward the famous Ballestas Islands.
During the journey, you'll make a special stop off the coast of the Paracas Peninsula to observe the mysterious Candelabra, a gigantic figure etched in the sand that continues to raise questions about its origin and meaning.
Later, you'll approach the marine ecosystem of the Ballestas Islands, where you'll witness the extraordinary biodiversity: colonies of sea lions resting on the rocks, penguins swimming nimbly beneath the waves, and a variety of birds such as pelicans and blue-footed boobies that inhabit the area.
After the cruise, the tour continues overland to the impressive Paracas National Reserve. This protected area offers unique views of desert landscapes that contrast with the deep blue sea, creating an environment of almost surreal beauty.
During the visit, you'll see the remains of "The Cathedral," an ancient rock formation eroded by time and natural phenomena, and you'll visit two iconic beaches: Playa Roja, with its distinctive reddish sand, and Playa Lagunillas, surrounded by cliffs and nature.
After this tour of one of Peru's most iconic natural environments, you'll return comfortably to the meeting point, with unforgettable memories of this journey.
