Highlights
The Nasca Lines Land Tour is recommended for all audiences, combining small hikes with beautiful views of the Nasca and Palpa valleys. Contrary to the belief that they can only be seen from the air, we tell you that there are several figures or Geoglyphs that can be easily seen from the lookout towers and from the surrounding hills, this tour takes you to know some little known but just as mysterious as "The Andean Cat", "The Lizard", "The Royal Family", "The Orca" and others.

About Nazca
Nazca is a desert town on Peru's south coast, famous for giant ancient lines and figures etched into the plain, best seen from the air or a viewing tower.
Nazca lies in a coastal valley in southern Peru, at the foot of the Andes, in one of the driest stretches of the country. On the plains nearby, the Nazca Lines, giant figures of a hummingbird, a monkey, a spider and a condor, together with straight lines and geometric shapes, were etched in the stony ground between about 500 BC and AD 500. UNESCO lists them as a World Heritage site, and the German mathematician Maria Reiche spent decades mapping them.
Top-ranked sights in Nazca: Cantalloc Aqueducts (Acueductos de Cantalloc).
