Description

Your adventure begins right at San Martín Port, where we will collect you just metres from your ship’s gangway and transfer you comfortably to the Paracas tourist pier. From there, you’ll embark on a fascinating boat tour to the Ballestas Islands, with a scenic stop at the mysterious Candelabra geoglyph, etched into the coastal hillside. The Ballestas are part of a protected natural reserve and are home to an incredible variety of marine wildlife, including sea lions, Humboldt penguins, and dozens of seabird species. As this is a natural ecosystem, sightings may vary and are beyond our control. Entrance fee to the reserve is required and paid locally before departure. At the end of the tour, you may choose to explore Paracas town at your leisure or return with us on our private shuttle. Guests who wish to stay longer can easily return to port via the cruise shuttle, which operates every 30 minutes. Book with confidence, your comfort, safety, and timely return are our top priorities. IMPORTANT! All our shore excursions in Pisco start directly from the San Martín Port—no need to take the cruise shuttle service. Our team will be waiting for you right at the port entrance from 8:00 AM onwards. We operate our own modern, comfortable buses exclusively for our clients, and we are fully authorised with all the required permits to enter the port and carry out tourist operations safely and professionally. We also guarantee your timely return to the ship, so you can relax and enjoy your excursion with complete peace of mind. Book with confidence—our reliable service ensures a seamless experience from the moment you disembark. Please make sure to provide a valid mobile number with internet access and data, as all communication will be handled via WhatsApp for your convenience. We will contact you the day before your arrival via WhatsApp or email to confirm the final meeting details and ensure a smooth experience.
