I can’t say enough amazing things about Peru Hop! Hands down best tour I have ever been on. Our guide was Claudia she explained everything and was very thorough. She made great recommendations and I felt very safe at all locations.
With Peru Hop, you don’t wait in lines, you feel like you are VIP everywhere you go. We went to one of the restaurants she recommended for lunch in Paracas. We wanted to sit with the ocean view, she told the manager and within 15 min we were sitting there!
It was 7 of us and every recommendation was spot on, from the restaurants and the hotel, to the excursions, everything was great and well organized.
We learned a lot about Peru and the different cities, Claudia was informative, funny and engaging. Highly recommend Peru Hop! We plan to come again and do the Hop to Cusco! Thank you Peru Hop for an amazing time and great memories!!

We really enjoyed our time in paracas and huacachina. The tours were well organised and efficient. It was easy to add tours on the bus which made things more flexible. We booked the get to cusco quick tour and stayed in the recommended accomodation, during this trip and had no issues. Our tour guide Sandra made the trip as fantastic as it was, she was very friendly and attentive and was very good at providing the right information at the right time (5/5 for sandra). What could have made our experience better was the overnight and day journey (>24 hours)from nazca to cusco, the bus was less spacious and modern than the previous bus to arequipa, not much leg room and charging ports not fully functional.

We were lucky enough to have Leonardo Alegre as our guide for two days of fun in Nazca and Huacachina! Leonardo was not only an excellent tour facilitator, but he also made our experience unforgettable.
He took us on an exciting tour of Pisco, and Sandboarding in Huacachina, he made us laugh and enjoy ourselves to the fullest during the night of partying at our hotel. His positive energy and enthusiasm was infectious, and he really made sure we all had a great time.
My friends and I really enjoyed your service and we definitely recommend Leonardo Alegre as a guide. Thank you for making our trip even more memorable!

The worst four operator in Peru. We booked the trip from Lima to Nazca. Just 10 minutes later we have received information that our flight is cancelled because of the weather and we cannot make it to Lima on time. We request the refund about 20 minutes after our booking but they refused. Scam.

Great experience. The people at Peru Hop were friendly, fun, organised, and flexible. We were able to add a buggy ride on the fly in Paracas, which was a fantastic way to see the desert landscapes.
The sunset and dune buggy ride in Huacachina were probably the top highlight for us, do not miss out on that!
Special shoutout to the operator at the bus terminal in Callao - he held on to the iPad I left behind in the bus on the way back to Lima and helped return it to me.

José, Lui and Nilka were wonderful hosts escorting us from point to point and making sure we knew where and when to be for each part of the journey. The sand dunes at the oasis were absolutely spectacular at sunset but the ride is intense and pretty rough in the dune buggy. The bus ride all the way back from Nazca makes for a very long bumpy day but we thought seeing the lines from the plane was worth it.

Huacachina was once in a lifetime. The Islas Ballestas are so beautiful. The Nazca Lines were incredible (but don't eat before the flight and be mindful of your limitations with motion sickness mixed with heat), and the acueductos provided an excellent context for las lĂneas.
The details and itinerary may not always be clear, but rest assured because all of the guides take such good care to make sure everyone is accounted for. Debi was great, and I especially loved the man who took us to Nazca and back. He was particularly attentive.
Tours like this are so great for meeting people and making friends, and I can't recommend this enough.

My husband and I used Peru hop on our first visit to Peru in 2021 and this time we returned with family and there was no question that we were going to use them again. They are incredibly organized, all the guides are very friendly and helpful, they take good care of you and everything feels very safe. It’s a very affordable and convenient service and even though there is usually a large group you’ll still get personalized treatment.

This was a perfect finish tour to our Ecuador/Peru trip and the 2-day trip really squeezes out the best of these sights. We got very lucky on the Paracas boat tour to see dolphins, got very close to a group of penguins and watched a lot of sea lions in water and on the shore, we found it interesting despite coming back from Galapagos just a few days earlier. The Huacachina trip was particularly exceptional with the adrenaline-infused buggy ride and sandboarding. Nazca lines flight the day after was a great final day activity. The whole trip was made even better thanks to the expert guidance from our guide Lui who made sure we did not miss anything! Many thanks again to Lui and the bus driver who was also a star!

Pickup from Lima around 5:45am with tour guide Jorge/George. Really good at explaining everything, he was such a great guide throughout the first day of the tour. Paracas was actually a bit underwhelming but unique in its own way, saw sea lions, one or two penguins and tons of birds during the boat ride. Huacachina was literally the highlight with the dune buggy tour, such an exhilarating experience, it definitely gets your adrenaline going. Alfredo our buggy driver took the experience to another level, best driver ever! Leonardo was very helpful getting our Nazca tour booked that we decided to go to the night before. The tour itself, well, also amazing in it's own way but the ride there was very long and very bumpy since the route was blocked due to construction and wind turbines being transported, adding delays and detours. The flight gave me a bit of motion sickness, definitely recommend taking pills for that as the plane takes constant tight turns to get a view of the geoglyphs. Aymeth our guide for the bus ride back to Lima was also amazing and I was able to relax and get dropped off around 11pm

Is it correct that we stay overnight in Huacachina but we have to find and book our own accommodation?
Written 8 December 2023
Yes, you are right. There are quite a lot of accomodations in Huacachina. My advice will be get one close to the Wild Rover Huacachina where all the shuttles and buses arrive and depart.
