The Nazca Lines
Iconic art etched into a timeless desert
Trip highlights
- Scenic flight over the geoglyphs
- The Hummingbird, Monkey & Astronaut
- Huacachina desert oasis
- Pisco & vineyard tastings
A hummingbird the size of a football pitch. A monkey with a curling tail. Banking gently in a little plane over the warm Nazca desert, you’ll see one of humanity’s most playful mysteries from above.
No one fully knows why the Nazca people drew these enormous figures into the desert floor more than 1,500 years ago — but seeing them sweep beneath your wing is pure wonder. The hummingbird, the spider, the astronaut: all yours from the sky.
Pair it with golden dunes, pisco vineyards and the buggy thrills of Huacachina oasis for a sun-soaked desert day you’ll never forget.
