Itinerary

  • Huacachina

    Our excursion starts from the Hotel "La Casa del Bamboo", located in the surroundings of the Huacachina Oasis. Then, our buggy driver will accompany our passengers to a tourist control booth, where our passengers must pay a tourist tax of S/3.60 soles per person. Then we will proceed to climb a small sand dune to board the Buggies and start the tour. Our professional driver will start the desert tour and will make different stops so that our clients can appreciate the landscape, so they can take pictures. Then we will drive our vehicle to the top of a large dune where our instructor guide will show you how to practice the sport of Sandboarding. Once at the top you can enjoy this sport, and you can also take many photos. Finally we will return to the Huacachina lagoon, where passengers must return to the starting point (Hotel El Bamboo) and end the service. In the office we can offer our tourists taxi services.

Great experience at Ica dessert

Published on Jan, 2025

The experience was so fun with sandboarding, buggy drivers are very professional always caring about safety first and also very kind. Enjoying a sunset in the dessert in Peru was unique.

Mad Max-style Adventure

Published on Oct, 2024

The buggy ride in the Huacachina Oasis was one of the most incredible tourist experiences I’ve ever had, and I’ve traveled quite a bit. The adventure begins in a breathtaking setting, with stunning views of the massive dunes. The place is packed with buggies — or, as I like to call them, true Mad Max-style sand conquerors. Each buggy holds about eight people, and while it’s an adventurous ride, it’s surprisingly comfortable for what it is. But don’t forget: this is an adrenaline-packed activity! It feels like a rollercoaster in the middle of the desert, with the roar of the engine as you go up and down massive dunes that make your stomach churn with excitement. It’s worth every penny, and the price is surprisingly affordable for everything you get. And the best part? We made several stops to slide down the dunes on sandboards and watched a stunning sunset disappearing behind the golden, fine sands. Our driver was fantastic and very attentive. I highly recommend this experience, and I would gladly do it again!

Don’t miss this tour

Published on Aug, 2024

Sam was a really nice guy. We booked 5pm tour, when we got Hotel Bamboo around 4:45pm, he was already waiting for us there, and then arranged us to storage bags, using washroom, leading us to the dune. Dune buggy is really a fun and must-have experience in Peru, don’t miss it, it’s absolutely worth you to take time and money to visit Huacachina Oasis. BTW, sitting on the moon evening dune and enjoying the outside music concert, is a really romantic experience.

Thriller Dune Buggy Ride - June 2024

Published on Jul, 2024

My husband and I had an amazing time on this dune buggy ride through the Huacachina oasis. Our driver drifted off of sand dunes and made our buggy ride a real thriller!! We also stopped a few times and went down on the sandboards on our bellies. Going later in the day was great as we got to watch a beautiful sunset as well. Worth the money, so much fun!!

Incredible Dune Buggy Experience

Published on Jun, 2024

This was WAY more fun than we expected!! Samael was super helpful and organized, we used him for our wine tour as well. The buggies are fast and had all of us screaming the whole time! The sunset was incredible as well, highly recommended!
