They showed up on time. ...

They showed up on time. The vehicle used for all day had outstanding room for us to stretch out in. You get a driver and a tour guide all day. They took care of everything. They made excellent recommendations on where to sit on the boat, food, drink and more. An outstanding tour/experienced was delivered.

We are so glad you enjoyed this experience. Thank you!

Is the Juice worth the Squeeze?

Michael_L, Sep 2021
This review is more about the event than the vendor. That said: we took this tour during the Time of Covid and the vendor had to do some gymnastics to get the tour to work and it did, sort of. For this they are commended. The guide and the driver were great. The guide was informative and informed. He was also flexible and when we came across a small flock of flamingos he was willing to stop so we could take pictures. But as for the event and my title: the juice was about an hour of seeing sights. The squeeze, however, was a very long day that started at 5 AM and ended at 9 PM. This included about 10 hours of driving about 600 km (~350 miles) over tedious road, mostly the Pan-American highway. The two sights: the Ballestas island with its marine and avian fauna and the Nazca lines are wonderful sights to see (the "winery" was a tourist trap -- although the lunch was good -- and it could have been skipped in its entirety, hence the "sort of" above). This event is a whole day for a very short time for seeing interesting stuff. The vendor's description is accurate but maybe not as informative as it could be on this point. As for the Nazca lines flight: If you are of a delicate constitution (which I am not) you might find yourself revisiting your last meal. The pilots do some aerial acrobatics so that each side of the plane can see about 13 of the more famous of the 100s of terraglyphs in the area but it was, umm, stressful. Eat light or not at all before is my recommendation. I took dramamine and was glad of it. The guide was also the pilot and his English was rough...so be prepared to find the glyphs with your eyes then in camera and shoot quickly as they go by fast. Again, the flight from Pisco Airport took longer than the overflight of the lines. However, unlike the Pan-American highway, there was some interesting scenery on the way and to that end I will recommend the flight later in the day because, on the way back, the sun casts interesting shadows on the landscape that were photo worthy...this was in early September... and can help take your mind off your queasy stomach...kinda. I am not at all sorry we did this excursion but it was a lot more downtime than I had expected.
