Breathtaking taste of Peru - I highly recommend this tour which shows a breathtaking range of view landscapes and activities. The tour organisers did a good job with transport and switches between activities being well-organised.

Once in a lifetime experience - Guadalupe was a great tour guide. She was very fun and interactive with the group. There is a 2 hour boat ride around an island. There is a buggy ride with sand sliding. The buggy ride is like a roller coaster, it is not a smooth ride so fair warning for those who dont like that. I didnt but I didnt know until it happened. But overall it is an unforgettable experience. The ride back to town is 5 hours long, so get cozy. Overall it was an amazing time. Also it gets hot so be prepared to dress down.

A nice surprise - Great tour! We came with no expectations, but it was actually really great and a good deal for the money. The guide was nice and really flexible with schedule and we got time to enjoy every part of the tour! The degustacion which was some random extra activity which we didn't care much about, revealed itself to be actually one of the highlight of the trip, with great explainations and many nice tastings. Totally recommended

Amazing tour! - Great tour! Did this with my wife and two friends, well worth it. It’s a full day ordeal though that runs from 5a - 10p so plan accordingly!

A marvellous day trip to explore in the sea and the oasis - It was highly recommended to join. We have great fun and experience. The bunky ride in the oasis was with great excitement. Of course the sand boarding.

One of the cheapest... - One of the cheapest options for the same itinerary. Mediocre but you still see everything. Pickup is punctual.

Fun activities - The tour activities were great and fun! Our tour guide was a bit lost half the time and unstructured with time.

Do not use this company!!! - Do not use this company!!! Booked this tour, specifically the English speaking option. Found out on the day, an hour into the bus ride that the tour guide didn’t speak a single word of English, and was conducting the whole tour in Spanish! Had to catch a cab back to Lima, and foot the bill for the cab. Still waiting for a refund. That was my only day to go to Huacachina, and I was extremely disappointed to say the least. One of the worst tour experiences to date.
