Quick answer The flight, the night at the oasis, and the fees outside the fare
Peru Hop's 2-day Nazca trip starts at $265 with hotel pickup in Lima. Day one covers the Ballestas Islands, a vineyard tasting and two hours of dune buggy and sandboarding, with the night spent in Huacachina. Day two flies over the Nazca Lines and visits the Cantalloc aqueducts. The Nazca airport tax and the flight admission fee are paid separately.
Key takeaways
- The night is spent at the oasis itself, not in Paracas
- The Nazca airport tax and the flight admission fee are excluded from the fare
- Passengers over 95 kg pay the operator $80 for an extra seat on the plane
- The Nazca ground transfer is private and, the listing notes, unguided
- Prefer the reserve and the tunnels? The other 2-day tour
What the Two Days Cover
Day one is the standard desert run: the coach south, the islands by boat, lunch in Paracas at your own cost, then the oasis and two hours on the dunes, with the night spent in Huacachina. Day two is the reason for the price. A shuttle carries you to Nazca for around eleven, straight to the airport for the flight over the geoglyphs, then two hours free at the Cantalloc aqueducts before the drive back to Huacachina at three and the coach to Lima at seven.
Reserve tickets and the visiting window are set by SERNANP, not by the operator: S/11 for a one-day adult ticket, S/17 for the two-reserve combo, and boats only between 06:00 and 13:00.
The flight, in practical terms
Passports are required at the airport. Passengers over 95 kg pay the operator $80 directly for an extra seat, and the airport tax and the flight's own admission fee are collected in Nazca rather than at checkout. The listing puts the coach back in Miraflores between 23:30 and midnight, later for the centre.
What Is and Is Not in the Fare
The flight is included; the charges that surround it are not, which is the detail most price comparisons miss.

Who This Tour Suits
It suits travellers for whom the Nazca Lines are the point and Huacachina is the bonus — flying over the geoglyphs from Lima in a single day is otherwise a punishing 18-hour trip. If the lines do not interest you, the same operator's 2-day tour covers the Paracas National Reserve for less than half the price. Both 2-day options and the day trips: every other Huacachina tour from Lima.

Is Going to Huacachina Worth It When the Nazca Lines Are the Draw
The flight is the reason to book this, and Huacachina is what makes the trip make sense: Nazca is seven hours from Lima, too far for a comfortable day trip, and the oasis sits at the natural halfway point. Sleeping there turns a punishing there-and-back into a route — dunes and a sunset on the first evening, the geoglyphs the next morning.
What the flight is like
A light aircraft over the geoglyphs from Nazca's airfield, then two free hours at the Cantalloc aqueducts before the drive north. Passports are required at the airport, and the listing warns that passengers over 95 kg pay the operator $80 for an extra seat. The airport tax and the flight's own admission fee are collected in Nazca, not at checkout — the two costs most price comparisons of this tour miss.
When to choose the other 2-day trip instead
If the lines do not pull you, the two-day Paracas itinerary covers the Paracas National Reserve and the Chincha tunnels for less than half, with the night spent in Paracas rather than at the oasis. The desert half of both trips is identical.

Questions About This Tour
Are the Nazca airport tax and flight fee included?
No. Both are collected in Nazca, and the listing lists them as exclusions alongside accommodation and meals.
Is there a weight limit for the Nazca flight?
Passengers over 95 kg must pay the operator $80 directly for an extra seat on the plane.
Where do I sleep on this tour?
In Huacachina after the buggy session on day one. Accommodation is not included, so the room is yours to book.
Is the Nazca transfer guided?
No — the listing states the private ground transfer to and from Nazca is not guided, unlike the coach legs.
Is going to Huacachina worth it on this itinerary?
On this trip the oasis does double duty: it is the dune session on day one and the halfway stop that makes the Nazca flight practical. Nazca alone from Lima is a seven-hour drive each way.
What extra costs should I expect in Nazca?
The airport tax and the flight admission fee, both collected locally, plus $80 to the operator if you weigh more than 95 kg.
