Lima - Paracas - Nasca Lines Overflight

Paracas National Reserve

After four hours of travel, arrive at Pisco airport and enjoy a flight of 1 hour and 30 minutes over the desert observing the mysterious Nasca lines. Nasca is a small town that perhaps would go unnoticed on a map if it didn't host the famous lines engraved on the desert. A monkey, a spider, a condor, all very large, can be seen from the sky, so you try to decipher the mystery. If the weather conditions or airspace permit, fly over the recent findings in Palpa, as well. After flying over these impressive mountains, that host marine fossils up to 150 million years old, the journey ends. Transfer to the hotel in Paracas, and have the afternoon at leisure.
