    Convenient but not great

    Rushelle_B, Nov 2025
    This was a good tour for those short on time that want to experience a few stops in peru. Communication prior to the trip was great and pick up/drop off were timely. But few things to know before booking: 1. Bring extra toilet paper and small change for bathrooms (they charge 1-2 soles each). 2. The Isla Ballestas boat tour was great (much better than expected) but it was colder than expected and you will get splashed so bring a light rain jacket. 3. Don’t feel pressured to buy a sand bandana at the first instance since many more people will be selling them along the way and you can bargain down the price (heard as low as 3 soles). 4. At the pisco tasting restaurant the service and food were not good but the tasting itself was at least entertaining. 5. Sand boarding was great and plenty of opportunities to take pictures. 6. The final tasting in Chincha was totally unnecessary since it didn’t offer anything new and was basically a roadside convenience store. 7. Pressure sales tactics at many of the stops (particularly the chocolate tasting). This is likely not specific to this tour as I experienced this on other tours in Peru as well. All in all, some great stops on the tour (paracas/sandboarding) but be prepared for subpar food, bathrooms and tasting experiences.

    Less than expected

    Jessica_L, Sep 2025
    Nice experience. This activity is like a must from Lima, but this is less than what we expected unfortunately. We supposed to have a stop #6 to chincha Alta winery but this is skipped. We supposed to finish around 11pm but we arrive hotel 830pm
