Following the coast south from Lima you’ll pass deserts and oases on your way to your three-night luxury getaway, complete with spa, watersports, private terraces, fine dining excellence and that all-important beach. Throw in a range of adventure activities and it’s the perfect end to any Peru trip. On day two, a boat cruise will bring you to the Ballestas Islands where you’ll dip in and out of arches and caves in search of pelicans, boobies, cormorants and sea lions. The next day, you’ll have the option of a sightseeing flight over the famous Nazca Lines – 2,000-year-old geoglyphs scattered across the desert floor. You’ll then make a trip to Paracas Reserve, Peru’s largest coastal wildlife sanctuary where dramatic cliff scenery, rock formations and archaeological sites play host to flamingos and condors. You'll be staying at the excellent Hotel Paracas. On your last day, transfer back to the Peruvian capital.
