A magical day between sea, desert and new friendships

5.00I did the full day tour to Paracas, Ica and La Huacachina traveling alone, and it was a wonderful experience. From the beginning, the guide was very friendly and organized, providing clear information and making the whole group comfortable. The landscapes are simply spectacular: the contrast between the sea in Paracas and the dunes in La Huacachina is something that leaves you speechless. Also, it was very nice to share the tour with people from different countries. The organization was excellent and at all times I felt safe and accompanied. Fully recommended, especially if you are traveling alone!
Nice experience

5.00It has been an incredible experience to visit Peru, and of course the role played by Ceatours Agency was key. We were surprised with their organization, their seriousness and the incredible treatment we received from each member of the team, from customer service, to drivers and guides. It's all you need and a little more than the agency provides.
Excellent experience.
