Tuesday
Lima - Pisco
In the morning, we'll embark on a city tour of Lima. Lima can be a chaotic city at the best of times, but our guide will help us to avoid the traffic and instead take in such delights as the Plaza de Armas and the Monasterio de San Francisco with its famous catacombs.
After several hours of sightseeing, we'll head to the quiet neighbourhood of Barranco. Here, we'll find a big restaurant serving typical Peruvian cuisine popular with locals. We might like to try a Chicha Morada, which is a local drink, a bit like hot red wine, but without the alcohol :-(
If we want to spend more time in Lima, we can explore more of the historical centre. We might want to do some shopping or visit the Museo de Oro before departing Lima for Pisco.

Pisco - Ica - Nazca
In the morning, we'll take a speedboat to the rocky Ballestas Islands. It's prohibited for humans to enter the islands on land, so we'll have to stay in the boat and observe the animals from a distance of about 50 metres. However, we'll be able to observe penguins, sea lions and thousands of marine birds completely free from captivity.
We'll then travel to Huacachina, just outside the city of Ica. Here, we'll find white sand dunes. Aside from the natural beauty of this calm oasis, it will be possible to hire equipment for sand-boarding or to take buggy tour.
Finally, it's on to Nazca where we'll arrive at night.
