Itinerary

  • Islas Ballestas (Pass By)

    The tour starts with pickup from your hotel within Paracas town to the Marina Turistica where you will board our speedboat to begin our adventure to the stunning Ballestas Islands (group service).  On the way you’ll stop at the Paracas Peninsula to see the enigmatic figure of the Candelabra, stunning design drawn on the side of a hill in the Peninsula. Nobody knows for sure who did it or why. There are many hypotheses regarding its origin, some believe it is related to the Nazca Lines but still found no proof or evidence that can define its creation. Afterward you will head off to Ballestas Island where you will enjoy a stunning worlds filled with birds and sea lions. You will navigate around the islands at a distance allowed and probably some caves but this will be depending on the condition of the sea. At the end of the tour you will be returned to the port and then transfered back to your hotel or bus station.

This is a must do in Paracas

Published on Nov, 2024

This was definitely a tour that you should take while in Paracas. It was absolutely fantastic, first you sail to the candelabra to take pictures from the boat. They turn the boat so that each side can see it and take pictures. Then you go to Ballestas which was absolutely fantastic. We do recommend you bring a wind breaker since you will get wet. We highly recommend this tour

Lots of fun!

Our boat ride could not take place due to rough waters however it was replaced with sand buggy rides through the national reserve park, it turned out to be a very fun day with nice and helpful guides. Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful

Very kind and funny host. Beautiful tour. We were lucky with the sunny weather. Exactly what we hoped for!

Mother Nature at her best!

Published on Jul, 2022

educational and beautiful. lots of birds, pelican, boobies, terns and more plus seals. just a short ride from the pier plus you have an amazing view of the Candleabra carved into the cliffside. We had the added blessing of perfect weather and animals that were OK with the boat full of people coming fairly close. Absolutely wonderful!

Perfect

We met Saolu from las adventures, when we arrived at parracas. From the first moment he was very friendly and polite. He also helped us to find our hostel. We decided to book a tour to the isla balletas, the shuttle bus to huacachina and also the nazca flight with him. Everything has worked very well. And he made us a really good price. I could write him all the time through WhatsApp and he responed my questions immediatly. He speaks also fluently english. He also gave me a little salsa lesson - it was quite of fun. So I highly recommend las adventures! They are doing a really really good job. You can really trust them.
