Just a few hours south of Lima lies Huacachina, a surreal desert oasis surrounded by towering sand dunes. It’s a thrilling stop for sandboarding and dune buggy rides—or simply relaxing by the palm-lined lagoon. Also nearby are sea wildlife tours by boat in Paracas!
Take a short flight over the mysterious Nazca Lines, enormous geoglyphs etched into the desert floor over 1,500 years ago. These massive shapes—ranging from monkeys to hummingbirds—remain one of the world’s great archaeological enigmas. I’m not saying it was aliens, but it was aliens. ✋🤚
