Fun in the Sand - If you are planning to visit Peru, the Huacachina Oasis and Paracas tour is an absolute must-do, and I can't recommend it enough! From start to finish, the experience was unforgettable, especially with our incredible guide, Jaime, and our skilled driver, Henry. Jamie and Henry picked us up at exactly 5:30 a.m. at our hotel in Miraflores at JW Marriott. Jaime went over our itinerary and first stop would be breakfast. I forget the name of the place, but it was amazing. They served some delicious breads and pork sandwiches. Afterwards, we headed towards the Paracas National Reserve where we took a speedboat to see some hieroglyphs before going to ballesta Islands to see the wildlife including- sea lions, penguins and a variety of seabirds. We then made a stop at Tacama Winery and had an amazing lunch. I literally had the best tres leches cake I've ever had in my life here, highly recommend!!!The winery was stunning and we were able to do a pisco and wine tasting and took a lot of great pictures. After lunch we headed off to the Huacachina Oasis to do some sandboarding and dune bugging through the sand. Let's talk about Huacachina Oasis. It's like stepping into another world, a desert paradise surrounded by towering sand dunes, all centered around the serene, lush Oasis. The dune buggy ride through the desert was a major highlight. Jaime made it even more exciting by providing fascinating insights into the history and formation of the Oasis while keeping the energy high with his fun and engaging personality. We stopped at various points in the dunes for sandboarding, and while it was a bit of a thrill for first-timers like me, Jaime's encourage made it feel like a breeze. The stunning desert sunset over the dunes was breathtaking and a perfect way to wrap up our time there. Henry, our driver was fantastic. He kept us safe and comfortable throughout the journey, ensuring we're always on time and taken care of. Overall, this tour is a perfect blend of adventure, nature and cultural insight. Jaime's passion for his country in the region really shown through, I highly recommend this to anyone when looking to explore the beauty of Peru Southern Coast.

An Experience of a Lifetime - Punctual service where we were picked up at our hotel at 5:30am. We were first taken to a beautiful stop to have breakfast, Carlos our driver took us all over and weaved in and out of traffic with grace. Driving in Lima is no joke.. so it takes skill to get from point a to b safely. Jaime was our guide and we can’t express how appreciative we were to be paired with them. They took care of us every step of the way. From what to eat, where to go, and always 10 steps ahead of making sure our every whim was thought out and taken care of. The highlight of course were the dunes… absolutely breath taking. It is a definite must when coming to Lima- an experience that will last a lifetime and definitely worth the trek. Hats off to Jaime and Carlos for being so considerate, helpful and kind.

Great option for day trip from Lima - Our guide, Mario, was informative and awesome. Started the day with a great breakfast, then boat ride in paracas. Delicious lunch at the winery followed by a tour and tasting and then off to huachachina for dune buggy and sand boarding by the oasis. Beautiful views and lots of fun. I would for sure recommend this private tour as opposed to the big bus options

An Unforgettable Day with Henry and Jaime! - Our tour with Henry, our driver, and Jaime, our host, was absolutely perfect! From the warm welcome over a genuine Peruvian breakfast to the breathtaking Ballestas Islands tour, Jaime’s knowledge and passion made every moment special. Lunch at Tacama Vineyard was a highlight, with delicious food, pisco, and wine. Henry’s expert driving took us safely to the Huacachina Oasis, where did a buggy ride and sandboarded the dunes! That was a perfect end to an amazing day! Henry and Jaime were professional, fun, and made the day seamless. If you’re lucky enough to have them, you’re in for an incredible adventure! Thank you both for an unforgettable experience!

Fun day at Isla Ballestas and Huacachina - Our guide Mario made this such a memorable day for my friends and I! He was punctual. He made sure to get us to where we needed to be on time without making us feel rushed. He was so knowledgable whenever we had questions and we had a lot! He took pictures and videos of us. He was so friendly and funny.

Fantastic all inclusive adventure. Full day, lots of variety, small group. A lot of fun! - A great day. Highly recommend this tour by Berrios Travel. Our guide Jaime was well organised and the driver Francisco managed the long drive well. Our small group of only 4 was very personalised. Food was included and excellent at both the breakfast stop and vineyard. We made our own Pisco Sour cocktails which were great. Jaime expertly cut through the long lines for the speedboat ride so our wait was minimal. Huacachina Oasis and sand buggy experience was an absolute highlight. So much fun! Exceeded my expectations.

Amazing! Thank you Jaime! - The trip was excellent! I must commend the driver Francisco, but especially the guide Jaime, who went out of their way to provide us with as many different experiences as possible and were available at all times, sharing information about Lima and the surrounding areas. The sights were fascinating and unreal, creating memories for a lifetime. We were particularly impressed by the Tacama winery, but the desert experience, with buggy rides and sandboarding, was truly once in a lifetime! Highly recommended, thank you for everything, and we would definitely repeat the trip if we return to Lima!

Must Do Ica Day Trip!!! - Booked a day trip to Ica via Lima Gourmet Co. It was an unforgettable amazing experience! “Super” Mario was our guide and Panchito was our driver. Mario was so passionate and knowledgeable about the history and culture of Peru; we were so much more able to appreciate the places that we visited! Panchito expertly navigated and maneuvered the roads, safely and we knew we were in good hands! The vehicle was so clean and the air conditioning was excellent! Overall the trip was smooth and seamless! Thanks to the wonderful kind people of Peru!
