This was the worst travel agency I had in Peru out of three that I hired. First, the driver they use was really reckless (even for Peru standards). Second, the agency is unprofessional (not to say dishonest). They take you to a very expensive restaurant for lunch which is in the middle of nowhere and the food is BAD and of dubious quality. I ate tasteless oily pasta and felt hungry the whole day. The Huacachina oasis is not worth it. Apparently, it is not even real anymore and there are some pipes feeding water into the little pond.

Itinerary
Approximate arrival at the Paracas Beach Resort, where you can observe the main activity of the area such as artisanal fishing and tourism.
Guided excursion to the Ballestas Islands, where you can appreciate this wonder of nature along with the wild marine life of the area, such as sea lions, Humboldt penguins, black or guanay cormorants, flamingos, parihuanas and various sea birds. The sea lions, like the penguins, will probably approach the boat and you will be able to appreciate the gift of nature. Then the guide will take you to the Viviana candy store where you will taste the traditional artisanal chocoteja, as well as alfajores, jams, artisanal cookies, mouse stuffing, etc. of artisanal Chocotejas.
Then we will visit a winery "El Catador". where we can have lunch (food not included). After lunch, you will go to a room where the local guide will give an explanation about the preparation of Pisco. Then there will be a tasting of Pisco and its derivatives where you can delight in its wonderful flavor of sweet, citrus and dried fruits.
In this beautiful oasis you can enjoy the tranquility of the place and walk around the lake and take unforgettable photographs.
One of the most anticipated parts for tourists, the guide will give explanations where they will form small groups where they will board the famous sand carts better known as buggies. With an experienced driver at the wheel of the vehicle, you will feel free to let go and embrace the adventure of speeding through the dunes. At the top of the dunes, you can slide by gravity on sand boards, better known as sandboards.

Milagros a tour guide at the catacombs hooked me up with Vivencial Trips. She asked me if I had any booked activities and I said no. Because I was staying really close to the airport so no tour agency was willing to pick me up at the airport area. Milagros made a call and I only paid $5 usd extra!!! I was picked up and dropped off by the airport area. Most tourist stay in Miraflores and that’s where all the pick up/drop off points are. Thank you Milagros. Martin the driver and Valeria were amazing. We were safe the whole time and made it back in time. Valeria is very kind, I enjoyed her as our tour guide. This was a long activity. Approximately 14+ hours.
One of the best activities you can enjoy, whether with family, as a couple, or alone... the important thing is to enjoy it and want to have a great time! Enjoy the pleasant company! Thanks to Maximos and Arnold!!! una de las mejores actividad que puedas disfrutar , tanto en familia, pareja o solo… lo importante esta en disfrutar y que desees pasarla Super Bien! disfruta de compañia amena! Gracias a Maximos y a Arnold!!!🌹🥰🙌

Excellent service and memorable experience, my husband and I planned this tour last minute and Liz was very accommodating. I am currently recovering from ankle surgery 3 months ago and all of the tour guides we worked with were very accommodating, I decided not to do the sand board activity and the tour guides drove me to a location where I could watch everyone else do the activity. The pick up and drop off were on time as they mentioned and the activities just like they described. Thank you Flor and Benjamin our driver for your kindness.
It was an amazing experience, I recommend everyone to come to Lima to take the walk. The agency was great, guided in everything, the guide, Eliflor was super friendly and understanding since I do not speak Spanish or English, continued explaining everything closely.
Impressive! A lot of responsibility from this agency.
Wonderful experience, the guide Rocio and driver Rogelio excellent in their work; we met extraordinary places, they complied 100% with the schedules and everything agreed. If you are thinking of coming to Lima, you can not stop doing this tour. We were a group of six friends and exceeded all our expectations
Excellent service, fulfilling the agenda 100% both in activities and on agreed schedules.
Wonderful experience, beautiful places visited
It was an unforgettable few days. We feel the magic of the Ballestas Islands, seeing sea lions and penguins in their natural habitat. And then, the adrenaline rush to the fullest by riding the dunes of Huacachina in buggies, with a fast heart and constant laughter. Adventure and nature in a couple of days, the best of two worlds left in the heart. If you have the opportunity to visit Peru put these destinations on your bucket list.
Wonderful excellent attention the driver and guide formed a great team..very responsible and loving..thanks so much for this tours...I am from Chile
The tour met all my expectations, nature, fauna, mystery and the feeding and tasting of typical drinks was incredible, thanks for the understanding to the tour guides who helped us at all times, we will return in the future to rely on another walk and experience again
I loved the tour everything was spectacular, the agency fulfilled all the proposed itinerary, the very comfortable car and the beautiful places. Darlyne our guide is very professional and charismatic thank you infinitely for the attentions and information shared from each place. Super recommended this experience.
The tour was very good, had many emotions and our guide Darli, was very attentive and welcoming. Super recommend this paddeio!
All very punctual and according to the description , a rather enjoyable tour, comfortable transportation and spectacular and knowledgeable guide!
We did the family tour, there were children and adults, it is a tour suitable for all ages. The guide, Julia, was very friendly and even made some dynamics during the trip. We had a great time
A wonderful experience, we thoroughly enjoyed, seeing the penguins the sea lions, we were even lucky enough to see whales
The walk is quite long, but with the stops along the way ends up the time passes fast. The return, as it is direct, becomes a tiring journey. At the first stop we took a boat to some islands to see penguins and sea lions, they are very few. What you see most are the local birds. The second stop is at the restaurant with good food and price ok. The taste of pisco was pretty cool! Finally we went to the desert for an interesting Buggy tour and lots of photos.
Excellent tour. We had a great time and lived excellent experiences. Very good Service and very worried about one. Very helpful
An amazing experience, the dunes are very beautiful, for those who like the extreme is 10/10. The Oasis is also very nice, and even though it was hot, the adventure makes you forget about it.
Very good tour. Super entertaining all activities, the guide Julia very attentive, explained everything very well, had us super entertaining. Very responsible driver. I'd definitely repeat.

Very satisfactory services received by the task force, Arnold the guide, Martin the driver and Eduardo. We had a great time! Thanks for everything
I recommend them 100%, the guide Arnold, his companion Eduardo and the Driver very fun. We had a spectacular day on this tour. They took beautiful pictures of us. The important things gave us very good information about the history, culture and gastronomy of your beloved Peru.
The experience of traveling almost 4 hours from Lima to Paracas in the first instance where we travel in a first-rate water transport to the Ballestas Islands and the geroglyph corresponds to a fabulous experience, later knowing its culture of both wine and pisco well, but the best was the arrival at the oasis of Huacachina and its ride in Tubulares, an experience with a lot of adrenaline, recommended for anyone looking for adventures at a high level, delighted with the attention, the guides, the driver, the punctuality in the schedules and generally a must if you visit Lima.
Excellent service from Arnold, Martin and companion. Definitely recommended. We had a great time recommending the service
Our guide Eliflor and driver Eduardo impeccable at all times, punctual, very clear, playful and informative. The tour itself very complete and entertaining! Highly recommended
Unforgettable experience, recognition the tour 100% met my expectations, I enjoyed every place, the oasis of huacachina (cuqui the driver of incredible bugies a kingpin) is a space that I recommend to visit, as well as Paracas and the place where we did the tasting of the pisco (which was very good).
very nice experience and very grateful for going to very beautiful area of Peru very nice memory I brought to chile region of the Rivers thank you very much
It was an excellent experience, I loved the work and professionalism of Guide and Driver, it was fulfilled as promised 👏🙌🏻
