In the afternoon you will fly over the Nasca-Lines from Pisco. You will be transferred to the airport in Pisco (15 min drive from your hotel). During the 1 ½ hour flight aboard a modern Cessna Gran Caravan plane with capacity for 12 passengers you can photograph the most famous images: the condor, the hummingbird, and many more. Best viewed from the air, these huge geometric patterns, animal figures and hundreds of perfectly straight lines were etched on the desert sands by Nasca people centuries ago. Additionally you will fly over the Palpa Lines, the recently discovered drawings near Ocucaje left by the Paracas culture and the archaeological complex built by the Nasca Culture in Cahuachi.

Afternoon at leisure. Or In case of flight cancellation due to bad weather conditions the day before, a second attempt to fly over the Nasca Plains may proceed.

Optional: Visit the Paracas National Reserve. This is the only nature reserve on the Peruvian coast and is considered one of world’s strangest and richest ecosystems by Unesco. It was in this area that the first musical instrument of Peru, a ‘Quena’, a Peruvian flute, was found. As we enter the National Reserve we have the chance to photograph stunning natural rock formations, sculpted by the wind and sea as the ‘friars’. A number of overlooks along the coast are ideal locations for landscape shots of Paracas Peninsula and the Pacific Ocean. Before we return to the hotel we stroll through the beaches of Yumaque, Playa Roja and Lagunillas.
