Rute

1. At 8 am, our experience team will pick you up from your hotel in Huacachina or Ica and take you to the Maria Reiche airfield in the city of Nazca. Our pilot and copilot will take us on an unforgettable 35-minute flight to observe animal, plant, and geometric figures: the monkey, the condor, the hummingbird, the spider, the pelican, the hands, the tree, the astronaut, and the trapezoid. The Nazca Lines are located in an immense desert and were created between the 1st and 7th centuries AD and were declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The creation of the Nazca Lines remains a mystery to this day; they could have been an astronomical calendar, places for religious rituals and ceremonies, symbols of their magical and religious world toward the gods, or a system for water management. After our experience, we return to the hotel in Huacachina or Ica.

About Ica

Ica is a desert city on Peru's south coast, known for its vineyards and pisco, the nearby oasis of Huacachina and the Nazca Lines to the south.

Ica lies in a dry river valley on Peru's southern coast, a green strip of vineyards, cotton fields and orchards between the Pacific and the Andean foothills. The Ica Regional Museum holds mummies, textiles and trophy heads from the Paracas, Nazca and Inca cultures, and the colonial centre has a plaza with a cathedral. The region is one of Peru's centres of pisco, the grape brandy, and many bodegas on the roads around town make it.

Top-ranked sights in Ica: Tacama Vineyard, Canyon of the Lost (Cañón de Los Perdidos).
