I had so much fun, the wine tasting & food were exceptional. The sand boarding experience was so thrilling, it reminds me of Dubai. We also got to see, the sea lions, and penguins. My guide was so friendly, informative, and always made sure I was good. I Highly recommend this tour. Great experience.

Terrible. We were confirmed and booked for 10/7/25. And pick up time as said on the confirmation message starts at 5am. We woke up at 345am to prepare ourselves and took the uber to the meeting place JW Marriott at 430am.We waited and waited and tried to call the Milenario tour operator but no answer. My husband got the message from Elver Jhon Llacza Chuco from the tour company 7 minutes before 6am that the booking was cancelled and they already had 2 buses out for the day. What the h…k! They never sent us a cancellation message the day before. They wasted our time, and Elver Jhon Llacza Chuco sent an apology and said they committed human error. The h…k! I don’t recommend thos Milenario company, can’t be trusted.
It was exciting and full of information about the Peruvian history. Great entertainment and fun activities. Thank you for the friendly helpful hosts.
The trip is great and fun. The time control is perfect. So we can catch the midnight flight home smoothly. The customer service and guide are both very understanding and caring.
Adventurous dunes, beautiful scenery, and an expensive restaurant. Nice tour guide and great driver.
Gabby, our guide, was excellent. She took very good care of us. I especially enjoyed the boat trip to the island to see the sea lions and various sea birds. And the trip to the sand dunes was fun – I wish we could’ve spent more time there. It was, however, a very long day.
From start to finish, Joel , Jesus and Juliann made planning our trip a breeze. Their expertise and attention to detail were truly exceptional, and we couldn't be happier with the results!
The guide was very professional and friendly, she took us many pictures and gave us enough time to enjoy the view. I really recommend this tour.
Incredible experience and whilst it was supposed to be an English guide, it was all in Spanish and I didn’t understand anything but that didn’t matter, as the whole journey was so profound, educational, enjoyable and spectacular. I will never forget it for the rest of my life and I met some great people.
Great tour, very complete!
Fantastic... wonderful place, sea lions, penguins, lots of birds, all very beautiful. Boat trip with exceptional guide. Then we went to the two with bugs, good muuuuito. Beautiful place. Excellent guides. Super recommend.
I was in agreement with what they offer, compliance, Ballestas Island is the best, the hotel restaurant is very good, the guide was very kind and helpful, to improve I had more expectations in the pisco tour, since I needed to know the manufacturing process
It was a beautiful and safe experience. My tour guide, Valeria, was very attentive. They were very punctual at pickup time, I really liked that
If you have a chance to take a tour with another operator do it. The guide did not show mastery of the itinerary, omitting information about the stops and their times, nor did it maintain a line in the story he made during the tour. Personally I selected this experience to meet Pisco Nietto and the tasting ended up being somewhere else, where there was disorder at the time of charging for lunches. The weather in Huacachina is very short and disorganized, the activities are after lunch and are a bit heavy. The best was the tour to the Islands, where the guide of the place (Rocio), provided a great experience telling the peculiarities of the Islands and their fauna. The bus was very small, next to me was a large person and we were both very uncomfortable.
Excellent tour times, all very organized and fulfilled the itinerary Javiar the guide very attentive and always kept the group informed and organized
Just complement my previous comment. The route described was not the one followed in the day. In the description says "stop in Huacachina...internal part...Hotel Desert. Then outside with bugs lasting 1 hour." If the driver of the Bugue gave us 5 minutes (cried with passenger that should slow down the dune "and that I don't have the whole day and buzinava impacient+ 5 minutes of sandboard... was not 1 hour in Huacachina.
Beautiful excursions. Terrible transport van given the amount of hours: you can not make 10 hours of travel in a day van, in 25 people, all cramped. As other fellow travellers put it "never again"! So the 3 stars are for really beautiful excursions (which deserve 5 stars!), but in reality the organization deserves 1 star: van completely inadequate, always present disturbing music, not particularly nice guide.
Guides Joel and Cristian are attentive, experienced, fun and make the trip always unforgettable! Very fun!
Excellent tour, the guide kept us happy and participatory all day, the logistics well handled and the activities super fun.🫶 Definitely, I would take the tour again.
Excellent everything, small delays at the beginning which we lost a little time, but everything they indicate in the tour is fulfilled, I recommend it!
The tour was excellent, the Gabriela Guide was attentive to our inquiries from the beginning and had patience all the time for all of us. The walk around the Ballestas Islands was amazing, we saw many marine species, the wind is cold but with a little warmth we enjoyed it very much. When we were in Huacachina we lived a lot of adrenaline. The service was excellent and I would repeat with my family another time.
