Itinerary

Day 01 Sunset Ica Dinner Experience – Huacachina Oasis Peru

We will welcome you upon arrival in Ica (406 meters above sea level). After greeting you, we will transfer you to our office, where you may safely leave your luggage. We will then get ready to visit the beautiful Huacachina Oasis Peru, located only 5 km from Ica city.

At 4:30 PM, we will drive to Huacachina, a natural lagoon surrounded by palm trees and golden dunes. We will explore this magical oasis before starting our thrilling desert adventure. Riding in 4×4 dune buggies, we will cross the soft desert sands and feel the adrenaline of the ride. We will also try sandboarding, sliding down the dunes for an unforgettable experience.

As the sun sets, we will arrive at a high viewpoint to enjoy the stunning Sunset Ica Dinner panorama. The sky will glow in shades of gold, pink, and red, creating the perfect setting for photos and calm reflection. We will then continue to our private desert camp, designed for comfort and connection with nature.

At the campsite, we will find cozy tents, a kitchen, restrooms, a bonfire area, and a bar. The dinner area will feature tables, cushions, carpets, and soft lighting from lanterns, torches, and candles. We will receive a refreshing welcome drink and relax while our chef prepares a gourmet Ica dinner.

The evening meal will include a cheese and nut platter, followed by a grilled main course of beef, chicken, or fish. Each dish will come with roasted potatoes and vegetables. We will enjoy a fine bottle of Peruvian wine per couple, celebrating under the starry desert sky.

After dinner, we will gather around the fire to share stories and enjoy the peaceful rhythm of the desert. Around 8:00 PM, we will return to your hotel in Ica, ending this magical journey with lasting memories.
