You will be met by our guide at your hotel, then you will be transferred to Paracas town, at this point you will meet the rest of the group and board our speedboat to begin your adventure to the stunning Ballestas Island. On the way, you will stop at the Paracas Peninsula to see the enigmatic figure of the Candelabro. A stunning design is drawn on the side of a hill on 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. Afterwards will head off to Ballestas Island where you will enjoy a stunning world filled with birds and sea lions. Here you will visit the three islands at an allowed distance, navigating in some caves (this will depend on the condition of the sea). On your return to the port, you will board our vehicle to drive towards Paracas Reserve. During your tour, you will learn more about Paracas Reserve by visiting the interpretation centre, an interesting building that displays photos of all the fauna, flora and many other important facts about the Paracas Peninsula. Afterwards, we will drive through a lifeless desert till we reach an area where once stood a great natural rock formation known as the Cathedral. Unfortunately, this old formation did not withstand the 2007 earthquake. At this place, you will have amazing views of the desert and the blue ocean and you will see thousands of sea birds, you will visit Playa Roja and Lagunillas beach for some refreshments. At the end of the tour, you will be returned to Paracas.
