Private Paracas National Reserve Tour, Tailored to You
From €43 per person
See availability →A private Paracas National Reserve tour for your own group, with a flexible start, hotel pickup, flamingos, the Isthmus viewpoint, Red Beach and La Catedral.
A private Paracas National Reserve tour means the vehicle, the guide and the pace belong to your group alone. You choose the start time within the day, and the outing lasts about three hours, or three and a half if you extend it. On request, the plan can be reshaped completely: shorter, longer or built around what interests you.
It begins with a private pickup at your hotel in Paracas, and a short walk to see flamingos in their natural habitat. A drive along the coast then climbs to the peninsula's highest point, the Isthmus of Paracas, for wide views. You stop for photos at Playa Roja, famous for its rare volcanic sands, and end at the Catedral rock formation, where the ocean has carved the cliffs, before the comfortable drive back.

Paracas is a protected refuge: 224 bird species, more than 180 kinds of fish, 20 of cetaceans and 114 recorded archaeological sites, and since 1991 a Ramsar Site for wetlands. You travel in a modern air-conditioned vehicle with a certified bilingual guide (English or Spanish) and binoculars, and the reserve tickets are already paid. You can be collected at any hotel in Paracas or at the Cruz del Sur bus station.
