Huacachina: Buggy experience, dunes, and sunset in the desert

We need to be here by 4:00 PM, though we recommend that all travelers arrive 5 minutes early. During the summer months (January, February, and March) only, the sun sets much later; therefore, we shift the start time to 4:30 PM to make the most of the experience. We still recommend arriving a few minutes early to ensure punctuality. You can also use this time to purchase protective gear for the experience (this is optional). Afterward, we will head to the dunes and pass through the entrance and fee collection point; the cost is S/8.10 per person, payable in cash only.

This experience lasts two hours. We begin by climbing a small dune to board the buggies. We get ready by fastening our seatbelts and snapping a few photos. Your guide will also be your driver and will be at your service throughout the experience. We will ride this natural roller coaster, a journey packed with pure adrenaline. We will go sandboarding—lying down—in a safe and fun way, taking multiple runs; the guide will show you exactly how it's done. This experience is truly special thanks to the sunsets in Huacachina, which are unique and magnificent. We will have time to relax and enjoy the sunset. Be sure to take incredible photos; your pictures will serve as a record of one of the best experiences in Peru.
