The adventures in Nazca don’t have to end when your flight returns to the airport. There is so much more to see and do in this region of Peru. We have an exciting selection of historical tours and adventure tours for you to consider.
Chauchilla was the final resting place of many important figures in the Nazca culture. The tombs of High priests, royalty and upper class citizens are here. Learn about the burial practices and religious customs of the Nazca people, and see the artifacts and mummies they buried here for eternity.
The ancient Nazca civilization discovered an ingenious method of controlling and preserving water for their crops, via an underground system of channels and spiral-shaped reservoirs. This engineering marvel predates the Incas and allowed them to thrive in a harsh and unforgiving environment.
This popular “combo tour” is excellent value for money, and an efficient use of your time.
You’ll visit the pre-incan Cemetery of Chauchilla and the Aqueducts of Cantalloc during one fascinating tour that immerses you into Nazca’s history and culture.
Cahuachi is a sacred “city” composed of adobe pyramids and structures—a destination for an annual pilgrimage from across the ancient Nazca kingdom. Visit this remarkable complex with an expert guide and discover the religious and ceremonial traditions that shaped Nazca culture.
Explore the sand dunes of the Usaka desert in a 4-wheel-drive dune buggy and then if you are daring, try sandboarding down the dunes. This is an exciting and memorable adventure tour that you are sure to enjoy.
This is a small-group tour with other travelers.
This is no ordinary sand dune! At 1,176 meters height, its the second tallest sand dune in the world. Hike up the dune over several hours (requires a good level of physical fitness). At the top, you will have a brief sandboarding lesson, and then you are can sandboard down (laying on your stomach).
We are proud that so many travelers choose our tours, have an amazing time, and then leave us a great review.
