Spent the day traveling with a small group of friends exploring Nasca, Oasis, and Ballaste Islands. Even made it back earlier enough for our flights outta Lima. Jonathan was a wonderful guide and spent time telling us about the history of local areas we were visiting. Even a small pisco sampling during lunch to end another great trip to Lima!

It was a long day but surely worth traveling to see the wild sea life in Ballestas, Nazca lines, and Huacachina Oasis. Our guides are Aimen and Jonathen. They were nice. Only if we have known that the Nazca Line flight might cause motion sickness, we have taken the pills to alleviate the symptoms. Thank you guys for long driving and guiding.

The trip was excellent from start to finish, exceeding all expectations. Jonathon our tour guide made the trip providing helpful tour & local information throughout. It was a long day with a lot packed in but all elements of the day added to the experience. A memorable highlight of our visit to Peru.

What an incredible day we had exploring the beautiful region of Paracas with Jonathan as our private guide! From start to finish, Jonathan provided us with an amazing and authentic experience. Jonathan picked us up bright and early at 3am, and immediately made us feel welcome and comfortable in his vehicle. Throughout the day, his driving was excellent - he navigated the roads safely and efficiently, allowing us to sit back and take in the stunning desert landscapes. Our first stop was the Paracas National Reserve, where we took a boat out to the Ballestas Islands. Jonathan pointed out the diverse array of endangered marine life, including sea lions, Humboldt penguins, and dozens of species of seabirds. His knowledge of the local flora and fauna was incredibly impressive. After the boat tour, Jonathan drove us to some amazing viewpoints where we could see the famous Nazca lines etched into the desert floor. It was a breathtaking sight, and Jonathan provided great context and history about this archaeological wonder. For lunch, Jonathan took us to a wonderful local restaurant that served up authentic Peruvian cuisine and pisco sours. The food was delicious, and Jonathan made sure we tried all the regional specialties. Throughout the day, Jonathan was an absolute delight to be around. He was friendly, engaging, and clearly passionate about sharing the beauty of his country with visitors. He went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable experience. We can't recommend Jonathan highly enough as a private guide in Peru. His expertise, hospitality, and genuine care for his guests made our day trip an absolute joy from start to finish. We're so grateful we had the chance to explore this stunning region with him.

Went for a one-day tour to Ballestas, Nazca Lines Overflight & Huacachina Oasis. Our guide, Aymen, took a great care of everything. He is so knowledgeable and will patiently explain every question you asked. I personally love how he shared his story with Peru and how he felt while living in Lima. Travel Buddies Peru and Aymen still host some other tours like one-day Lima tour or other customized tour. And this experience is so great that if I would visit Peru again, I would still want to register their tour and cooperate with them!
