What you'll see and do
Nasca Lines
Fly over the World Heritage-listed geoglyphs. The high, arid plateau of the Nasca Desert reaches across more than 50 miles (80 km); its isolation and dry climate has helped to preserve the lines over time. The exact origins and significance of these hundreds of figures are unclear, but it’s believed that the designs were created by the Nasca people between 400 and 650 AD. Fly over several of the individual designs, many of which are animals; your pilot will let you know which designs you're about to see; the monkey, spider, flamingo, condor and hummingbird represent the winter and summer solstices; their beaks point to the location of the sunrises and sunsets on the solstice days in Nasca. During the 1.5-hour flight, you'll have plenty of time to view the one-of-a-kind artwork with great photo ops from the air!

Brilliant bucketlist tour! Nasca, Huacachina, Palascas!
Incredible once-in-a-lifetime experience! Would I do this again? No, because I want to see more of the world but bucketlist ticked off. Wow, the Nasca lines are quite amazing but also are the aquaducts and history of the Nasca race prior to modern times, an incredible feat. Highly recommend HOP. Also would recommend staying for a couple of days in Huacachina to get the full experience of sunrise or party in town.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your incredible review! We are thrilled to hear that ticking Nasca, Huacachina, and Paracas off your bucket list was such an unforgettable experience. It is wonderful to know how much you appreciated not only the iconic Nazca Lines, but also the impressive ancient engineering of the aqueducts and the rich history of the region. Your advice on taking extra time in Huacachina to soak in the desert sunrise and vibrant town atmosphere is fantastic for fellow travelers! Though your travels will take you to new corners of the world next, we are honored to have been part of this once-in-a-lifetime journey. Wishing you incredible adventures wherever your bucket list leads you next! VIPAC Travel Team

A more talkative and informed guide would be recommended
Good tour, good, smooth organisation. Good guide, but she took only the role of organiser, not a guide - she gave no information about Peru or Lima on the long way to Nasca and on the return. A more talkative and informed guide would be recommended.

Nazca Lines
A fantastic experience, which was very well organised, good guide and driver. Punctual, polite and informative.

A unique and mystical journey back into time
An almost 12 hour journey taking one back into an ancient time that still amazes, mystifies and entertains the senses. Our guide and driver were attentive, knowledgeable and courteous. Our guide provided the right balance of information and quiet and always was ready to answer questions with the thoughtful reply and anecdote.

Nazca Line Flight
This is not an inexpensive trip but it is well worth it. Everyone has a window seat. The pilots bank the plane twice so both sides get a good view of each figure.

Nazca Lines Full Day Trip from Lima: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lima.
How much does Nazca Lines Full Day Trip from Lima cost?
+
Prices start at $594 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lima usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Nazca Lines Full Day Trip from Lima take?
+
Plan for about 11 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lima is not rushed.
Is Nazca Lines Full Day Trip from Lima worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 40 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 54 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Lima, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Nazca Lines Full Day Trip from Lima?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Nazca Lines Full Day Trip from Lima suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Nazca Lines Full Day Trip from Lima?
+
Around 19 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lima can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lima and add a light layer if any part of the 11-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Nazca Lines Full Day Trip from Lima start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lima within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Lima?
+
On Outty we rank every Lima experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Premium Paracas & Huacachina Day Trip from Lima with Sunset Toast, Discover Lima: Love Park, Historic Center, and its Catacombs., Paracas & Huacachina Premium Experience from Lima. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Lima?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Lima?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
