What To Expect
This is a tour for Skiers and Snowboarders who ride on snow. (Also for snowboarder’s beginners). The 1st hour, we walk around 10 minutes to the training area. If you snowboard / Ski, we do short runs to adapt to the sand, or you take sandboard lessons. We also teach you how to wax boards. The next 2 hours, we enjoy the adrenaline in our funny dune buggy to go around the desert of Huacachina to ride the highest sand dunes. In average, we have 4 runs, and if we have enough time, we do 5 runs. All the time you are with a guide instructor, he rides together with you and takes pictures and videos with a GoPro during all the tour. There is going to be time for sunset before we go back to Huacachina, where we will share all the gopro pictures & videos with you. (You need to bring a pendrive or SD card to tranfer all the files) .

Tons of Fun

5.00I had a hard time getting my skis to move through the sand, but my 19 yr old son had no problem and absolutely loved it. Zooming around the dunes in the buggy is super fun. Very professional outfit. Our guide was very nice and gave instruction to the first time sand boarders. Took multiple individual videos of everyone coming down. Ended the day with shots of Pisco on top of a dune watching the sunset.

5.00It was an amazing experience, from riding the buggy to sandboarding and watching the sunset afterwards. Antonio was really fun and helped a lot with instructions on how to do it, always taking great photos and videos while it goes, incredible guy. For anyone coming to Peru this is a must do!
Exhilarating and one of the best tours

5.00One of the best tours I’ve been on, great guide that is a professional skier for Peru and is trying to make the Olympics. He carried my stuff when my ankle is injured. Thrilling ATV ride definitely a bit scary. Very friendly guide and great company

5.00Great experience. Antonio gave all required instructions and got great photo and video shots of the group. He was also a fun guy to be around. Thanks Antonio! Group of 3 people was a good size. Mixed group of boarders and skiers. Skiing boots were a bit worn out and should be replaced some time with newer gear. But it worked fine anyway.
Ditto Sandsport, giant fun with Antonio

5.00Great experience, both riding the buggy and snowboarding or skiing is TOP! First you can practice on a smaller dune after which they take you to higher dunes. This made it really fun to ski off the high dunes!! Antonio was a fantastic guide and instructor!!
If you like skiing, you have to book this tour!

5.00I did a private sand ski tour with Antonio and it was such an amazing experience. If you are an avid skier, book this tour! Some other tours are more buggy and sunset focused (which is awesome too) but this tour was really all about skiing! They take you on the bigger dunes so you can properly carve. Antonio takes amazing ski videos following you while going down the hill which is so cool! Absolutely recommend this tour!
First time sandboarding

5.00This was an incredible experience! Don’t forget to bring a buff to protect your face from the sand. The views and photos were amazing. It was my first time doing this, and Tony’s mentoring helped me stand and slide through the dunes. I tried sandboarding, but the sand skiing looked just as fun as sandboarding. The boogie is super fun!
Sandboarding!

5.00Very nice experience! You will join a buggy over the dunes, which already feels like an amusement park attraction. I chose sandboarding, although I have no skiing or snowboarding experience. You can also ski, or bodyboard down, for this you do not need balance. The sympathetic instructors explain well what to do, and you'll soon be gone! Super fun to slide down the dunes. Then we watched the beautiful sunset from on the dunes. Highly recommended!
Without a doubt the best organization of huacachina

5.00Without a doubt the best organization of huacachina to go sandboarding or skiing with! Ditto and his team guide you well, give good tips, most of the descents, take cool photos and videos and above all there is a lot of laughter with them. Highly recommended!
Great time Sandboarding with Dito Sand Xsports.

5.00I signed up as a sandboarder for the 3pm tour. I am a beginner snowboarder that can only do green runs so I was a little nervous. Antonio the guide was great in that he fitted me with a better pair of snowboard boots than the one I had selected. He found me a lighter pair that made a big difference when I was walking with them. He was very patient and was able to assess my ability and guided me down the ever increasing steeper slopes. Given my limited ability, he could tell me where I should go and make my direction switches. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and only fell once when I started to try a pivot turn on the steepest slope. ( you never know unless you try right?) He timed the completion of the runs perfectly before he got us on a private sand dune top to watch the sunset. The other skier and the sled boarder who were in the same group and tour as us clearly had a great time too from all the laughter and gentle poking fun at each other. The buggy ride was also crazy and lots of fun. I highly recommend going with Dito Sand Xsports as they clearly know what they are doing. The tour time was punctual, the sandboarding was safe and fun and the buggy ride was thrilling. Antonio captured all the fun on his camera and shared them at the end of the tour. Great service and truly memorable!
