If I could give them 6 stars, I would! Highly recommend this company.
My husband and I booked a private tour. Lima VIP let us completely customize our itinerary based off of our special requests. Our guide was Ronald and our driver was Liam. We were picked up in a new and clean SUV from our hotel in Lima. This was our itinerary:
Boating in Ballestas Islands
Scooter rental in Paracas National Park
Pisco winery tour in Ica
Dune buggy and sand boarding in Huacachina
1. Boating in Ballestas Islands
If we didn’t have Ronald’s support, this would’ve been so challenging. With Ronald’s support, it was a breeze.
Most tour companies will drop you off from a bus at the boat dock without giving you much further instruction. Ronald helped us navigate the check in, the lines, was prepared with our tickets, and made sure we boarded the boat. He was waiting for us right when we got off to take us to get a bite to eat.
The boat ride was scenic. I recommend packing a rain jacket.
2. Scooter rental in Paracas National Park
Ronald walked with us to the scooter rental store and took care of arranging our reservation. Lima VIP had never had a customer request to book scooters to do a self guided tour of Paracas National Persevere, but they willingly accommodated our request. Ronald was in touch with us the entire time via what’s app, making sure we were enjoying ourselves.
This was awesome! Would recommend this experience. I think experiencing the Preserve in a scooter would be much more enjoyable than a car. I would also recommend looking into ATVs or buggies. I think a self guided tour was more fun and provided more flexibility than a guided tour.
3. Pisco winery tour in Ica
This was brief stop, but we enjoyed the ambience. The tasting was fun. Again, Ronald was prepared and made the experience very smooth.
4. Dune buggy and sand boarding in Huacachina
The highlight of the day! Some roads were closed, and Ronald and Liam did not hesitate to implement an alternate plan. They took us to a bar while they worked very hard to coordinate new logistics for us as the roads were closed, and we were very grateful for them. Ronald was friends with people at all stops along the way, which gave us preferential treatment.
Thank you to Ronald, Liam, and Lima VIP for an unforgettable experience!

Great Day!
We had a great trip. Our driver Brayan made us feel comfortable during this full day excursion. He was very friendly and accommodating. During our trip to the Ballesta Island, we saw many birds and some sea lions. The water was a beautiful blue and the island was fascinating. We had a blast on the dune buggy portion and have amazing pictures that captured the fun. Finally the lunch was incredible. Brayan helped us navigate the menu and we enjoyed the pisco while visiting this area. Thanks again for a wonderful day.

Highly recommend this crew, very happy our hotel in Lime told us about them and their great service!
Ronald is the best tour guide, and Carlos the best driver! We had so much fun with them while touring the amazing places they took us in Peru, always being considered of our needs, not rushing us around, but actually letting us enjoy everything while answering our many questions with the best humor!
