Departure from Jorge Chavez airport (08.00 hrs) in a non stop flight to Ica.
Arriving Ica city, the airline staff will help us to change the airplane for a light aircraft “high wing”, in which we will have a better view of the majestic Nazca lines.
We transfer to Nazca in order to fly over the unique and enigmatic Nazca lines. Their Origin and purpose are still a great mystery. According to Dr. Maria Reiche who has spent all her life studying these lines, this is the largest astronomical Calendar of the world. We fly over the mysterious lines on the sand spreading over a 350-km2 area. These lines show several animals and plants like spiders, monkey, the dog, the lizard, the humming bird, the condor and so on, in a dimension that range 15 to 300 meters each one and with a 30 centimeter deep approximately.
Return trip to Ica and lunch included in Las Dunas or Mossone Hotel.
After lunch we start our Ica City tour, visiting the Main Square, the Luren Sanctuary, and the Regional Museum that shows several and interesting pieces from the different cultural periods. It stands out the Potteries, textiles, and evidences of medical practices of Paracas and Nazca culture.
