Embark on this excursion from Paracas to the California desert of Peru, where a memorable sunset picnic awaits you amidst breathtaking surroundings.
Activity Details
Your adventure begins with a pickup from your hotel in Paracas at the designated time, leading you into the stunning California desert of Peru. Interestingly, this location has hosted the Dakar Rally on three occasions.
This dry landscape features vast dunes and idyllic spots, including the oasis of Costa Rica, which we will reach after a 45-minute ride in an off-road vehicle. With a skilled driver at the helm, we will traverse the sandy terrain, making our way through captivating landscapes.
Upon arrival at the oasis, there will be ample time for you to partake in various activities available at this enchanting site, such as kayaking, sport fishing, boating, and snorkeling. For thrill-seekers, the tallest dunes provide the perfect opportunity for sandboarding.
As the day winds down, we will gather to witness the sunset in the California desert of Peru while indulging in a scrumptious picnic. The menu includes fresh fruits, nuts, cheese, cabanossi sausage, stuffed green olives, and ham, complemented by your choice of red or white wine, sparkling wine, a bottle of still mineral water, beer, or a soft drink.
The picnic is set up in an inviting area furnished with tables, carpets, and cushions illuminated by candle lamps and soothing music, enhancing the ambiance for this unique experience.
After soaking in the stunning sunset over the California desert of Peru, we will commence our journey back to your hotel in Paracas. The return trip is anticipated to take place between 4 and 5 hours post-pickup.
