Our program involves a bus journey from the city of Lima to the small town of Nazca located in the southern Peruvian coast. We offer you a good bus service that features large bed-like seats, air conditioning and panoramic windows. Once in Nazca we take you on a fantastic flight over one of the most mysterious deserts of our planet. This gigantic desert plateau contains huge drawings of bizarre creatures that are only visible from the air. The name given to this archaeological mystery is the Nazca Lines. During the flight you will be able to see perfect representations of a monkey, a hummingbird, a spider, a whale, a parrot, a dog and hundreds of straight lines crossing the desert in all directions.

Description:
03:15 h. You will be picked up from your hotel in Lima and then will be transferred to the bus station of Cruz del Sur located at the district of Miraflores. The bus journey to the city of Nazca lasts about 7 hours. (The bus will make stops at the Paracas bus station and the City of Ica, before reaching the town of Nazca.). Upon your arrival in Nazca you will be met at the bus station by our local guide and then will be transferred to the Nazca airport from where you will take a small plane to fly over the Nazca Lines. Prior the flight you will watch a video film about the Nazca Lines that will allow you get a better understanding of the archaeological zone you are about to see. This interesting documentary lasts about 40 minutes and involves serious information about the Nazca Culture, as well as the figures you will see from the air. For this aerial tour, you will board a small Cessna single-engine aircraft (Station air, Sky hawk or Skyline type), which has spacious room for 5 people, each person with a window seat. After the video, our English speaking pilot will proceed to give you a briefing about this air tour and also will give each participant a map of the archaeological zone, which shows all the figures you will see from the air. Among the figures, you will see an impressive representation of a monkey, a whale, a spider, a hummingbird, a parrot, a condor, geometrical shapes and hundreds of straight lines crisscrossing the Nazca desert. After the flight, you will be transferred to the bus station to take the bus back to Lima. (For lunch you may go to any of the local restaurants located near the bus station). The bus leaves at 16:00 h and arrives in Lima at around 23:00 hrs. Upon your arrival in Lima you will be picked up from the bus station and then will be transferred to your hotel. End of our service.
