Everything is very beautiful 🤩 It's just that they passed us from behind and we couldn't take, well, buy the outfit for the desert until we left and saw it

The experience was unforgettable; the guide, the driver, the timing, and the way of managing everything was very good, thank you very much for your services.
It is very worth the tour, the guide very attentive and kind, the tour is top too!! I like it.
The van, minibus, or van, I don't know what you call it there, the back part is very uncomfortable, three adults and a 10-year-old girl, we had a very bad time because of how uncomfortable it was, super cramped, and on the way back, a lot of heat, it was like the air conditioning wasn't working very well, the rest was perfect
¡Muchas gracias, Pablo, por compartir su experiencia y por sus comentarios! Nos alegra saber que, en general, disfrutaron de la excursión a Paracas, las Islas Ballestas y Huacachina, y que el resto de la experiencia fue de su agrado. Respecto al transporte, queremos aclarar que la excursión se realizó en una Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, un vehículo diseñado para ofrecer comodidad durante este tipo de recorridos. Entendemos, sin embargo, que la percepción del espacio puede variar dependiendo del número de pasajeros y de la ubicación asignada dentro del vehículo, especialmente durante un trayecto largo. En cuanto al aire acondicionado, hasta el momento no habíamos recibido comentarios similares de otros pasajeros que realizaron esta misma excursión. No obstante, tomamos muy en serio su observación y revisaremos el correcto funcionamiento del sistema de climatización para asegurarnos de que nuestros pasajeros viajen en las mejores condiciones posibles, especialmente durante los trayectos de regreso. Agradecemos sinceramente sus comentarios, ya que nos ayudan a identificar aspectos que podemos seguir mejorando. Nos alegra saber que, a pesar de esta situación, disfrutaron de la excursión y de las diferentes actividades incluidas en el recorrido. Esperamos tener la oportunidad de recibirlo nuevamente y ofrecerle una experiencia aún mejor. 😊
Excellent experience, the transportation was excellent, the guide was very kind, the activities were very organized, everything was on time, the experience was fantastic, I loved it.
The experience was incredible!! Everything as it is designed is perfect! Analú was a wonderful guide and made this experience memorable!
Excellent walk, very well worth it. I highly recommend to anyone going to Peru.
This tour was truly awesome and exciting. The desert buggy ride and sand boarding was great. The boat captain was excellent turning the boat so everyone could see and take photos. Wonderful guide, helping with dietary restrictions. It was a pleasure.
Excellent, I recommend the guide Rocio, the driver, and the company in general; they are very good, fulfilling everything that is offered and making the experience safe and very punctual.
They were punctual; they pick you up at your hotel and take you directly to the end of the tour. I went with my partner because we had a free day in Lima. The guide Darlyne and the driver were very good; they supported us at all times and were also very professional regarding tourism services. The van we traveled in had air conditioning and seat belts. The entrance fees to the attractions were included, and they also gave us a little free time after each attraction. You only pay for food in case you want to eat.
