Itinerary
This is our starting point to walk towards the Huacachina lagoon and board the buggies to tackle this adventure. At this point, travelers buy tickets for the tourist tax of S/ 3.60 soles. From there a 2-hour adventure awaits us in the immense dunes of Huacachina and we will travel through them, like a roller coaster of emotions. We made stops for the Sanboarding boards and finally appreciated the Sunset in the largest desert in southern Peru.
If you book this experience, you'll ride a buggy through the impressive desert dunes, feeling the thrill of each high-speed climb and descent.

Jota is THE MAN!!!!!! We had so much fun during our buggy ride. He greeted us at the meet up point and off we went. We hiked up a challenging sandy hill - took us some time but we made it! Once inside the car, Jota let us know what to expect and off we went. We did mini jumps in the buggy and I went up to level three sand boarding (couldn’t imagine 4 & 5!) Once at the final stop, we were able to capture some beautiful photos of the pending sunset before other groups joined up. Then we popped open our beers (the hosts drank water) and toasted to another beautiful and incredible day on this earth. Jota gave us so much information on how this came to be a thing in Huacachina and his “why”. We learned so much (being a Spanish speaker is helpful) but he can communicate well enough in English to get points across and have an enjoyable time!
Thank you so much for your comments; they help us a lot to continue growing.
Of all the activities I did in Huacachina, this was one of my favorites. The buggy ride was incredible, the sandboarding was super fun, and the sunset on the dunes was simply spectacular. What I liked the most was that they took us to the swing and viewpoint in the middle of the desert, a unique place with stunning views that made the experience even more special. In addition to having a great time, I took some of the most beautiful photos of my entire trip. The team was very friendly, professional, and always attentive to ensure we enjoyed every moment. If I return to Huacachina, I would choose them again without hesitation.
Muchas gracias por tu comentario nos motiva a seguir trabajando para ustedes.
We had an amazing time. It was the best tour I have ever been on. I am 60 years old and always wanted to slide boogie board on dunes after seeing it on YouTube. It was a blast.
Thank you very much for your trust.
Amazing. The driver was skilled and after realizing that we were confident going a little faster through the sand he gave us a good kick of adrenaline. Also the sand sliding activities were well explained and funny. Everybody had a lot of fun. Thank you
Thank you so much for your comment; it helps us to keep improving.
Probably one of the best experiences I had in Peru (maybe ever). The dune buggy ride alone is so much fun and then throw in the sandboarding. What an experience!

My buggy and sandboarding experience completely exceeded my expectations. The company, the guides, and every activity were top-tier and made the whole trip unforgettable. From racing across the dunes to sandboarding at sunset, capped off with fireworks and amazing vibes, every moment felt special. It was truly the best experience we’ve ever had.
