Save Money in HUACACHINA Desert Oasis, Paracas & Ballestas Islands | Sand Boarding & Dune Buggy

  • We were planning to visit Huacachina because of the amazing dune bashing, sand boarding, and Desert Oasis. We saw that Peru Hop, Viator, and Get Your Guide offer the tour but it was around $130/per person. We knew that this couldn't be the cheapest way to do the tour. Instead, we took the local bus and got here significantly cheaper. We didn't plan to visit Paracas but when we heard it was called the Poor Man's Galapagos we had to visit. Especially since we were able to see the Ballestas Island for such a cheap price as well. The Highlight for us was the Dune buggy tour as well as sandboarding through the desert oasis. Check out our experiences and let us know if you'd like to visit this beautiful desert oasis.

    Visited there about 2 years go. I did book with Peru Hop, it was definitely a great experience and worth the cost, visited three locations, overnight hotel stay, plus they pick you up and drop you back off. It was like a vacation in a vacation. You do get so much for $$$.

    • @ChewsToExplore

      Thanks for sharing! Glad you had a grat experience. I can absolutely see how it can be worth the value. We were on a tight budget and did it ourselves for a fraction. If you have the bduget the peru hop is a great option

    Do you guys typically buy lodging ahead of time? Or wait until you get to your location and just figure it out?
