Best experience EVER!
Quite possibly one of the best experiences I’ve ever had! This was absolutely a blast. Looking over the side I was scared to sand board, but it was SO much fun! I will note, our 12 year old daughter was very scared and cried, so if your child doesn’t like roller coasters, maybe have them sit this one out. Thankfully, our group was ok going a tad easier the second half of the trip so she was ok. Our 11 year old loved it as well, but he’s our daredevil.

Unforgettable Sunset Tour in Huacachina – Highly Recommended!
Before my trip, I came across Alejandro online and we stayed in touch quite a lot via WhatsApp. From the very beginning, he was extremely friendly, helpful, and professional. By coincidence, he recommended that I book a sunset tour in Huacachina through his agency — even though I had already booked a different tour beforehand. Looking back, booking with Alejandro was absolutely the best decision. I did not regret it for a single moment. A huge thank you also goes to our driver: you could immediately feel how passionate and experienced he was. I honestly had the impression that he even chose special routes through the dunes to give us a more exciting and unforgettable experience. Because of that, I happily gave him an extra tip equal to half of the tour price. The sunset in the dunes was simply breathtaking and definitely one of the highlights of my trip. On top of that, we were surprised with small snacks and even a glass of red wine — such a thoughtful and personal touch. I can truly recommend the entire company and organization from the bottom of my heart. Everything was perfectly organized, warm, and authentic. Tomorrow I will also do my Nazca tour, and I am excited to see if that experience will be just as amazing. Thank you very much for this special and unforgettable afternoon!

We had the best time on...
We had the best time on this trip. The staff were very friendly and communicated about the trip well. The dune buggy riding was incredibly fun and looked like something out of mad max due to the sheer amount of buggies out. Despite the large number of buggies, our driver managed to carve down the dunes without bumping into any traffic or slowing down, was very fun! After the buggies we then were taught how to sandboard on a smaller dune and gradually levelled up to larger/steeper dunes. Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone in the area!

Can't believe what...
Can't believe what happened. Please don't purchase from them. Just found out that they are scam you. I lost from them over 100 soles and kids is 70 soles. It is for 2 hours. But I purchased other agents more cheaper !!! 50 soles for me and my kid both! It is for an hour but you can purchase double for 50 per person. Just help you a tip. Save money. Also they are disrespectful if you are disabled person or reason issue. They DONT care about you. They just want your money because they know that you are tourist.
Operator response
We must clarify several points to protect our reputation and the safety of our passengers. Regarding your claims: our service is a formal 2-hour tour that includes all mandatory insurance and a guaranteed seat for every passenger. Your reservation was for one adult only. For safety and legal reasons, we cannot allow a child to travel without a reserved seat and the corresponding insurance coverage. This is not about 'charging more for being a tourist,' but about strictly following safety regulations. Comparing our service to a 1-hour informal tour is not accurate, as those options often lack the same duration, professional standards, and safety guarantees that we provide. Finally, we categorically reject any accusation of disrespect or discrimination. Our staff remained professional despite the verbal aggression received. We pride ourselves on our service quality and strictly adhere to safety protocols for the well-being of all our guests. We regret that our refusal to compromise safety led to this misunderstanding. We wish you the best in your future travels

An oasis of possibilities
He didn't love it! It is a must-see experience! Go through the dunes by buggy, see the sunset in the middle of an incredible landscape, lyse by the sand, everything was perfect. Also the accompaniment of the guides was very good.

Amazing evening in the desert!
Amazing evening in the desert! The buggies are really good fun and the drivers definitely test the limits. We boarded down two dunes and finished off with an unexpected picnic within the dunes with nibbles and wine provided to watch the sunset. 100% recommend.
