Ica, Peru

Ica Peru is a desert oasis. It is 305km from Lima. From the town of Ica, a short taxi  or rickshaw ride will take you to the Oasis. There many fun things to do here. The main attraction is the Dune buggies and Sand boarding.

There is a lot of  other activities too. In the lake you could ride Paddle boats. Walk around and visit the neat little stores. The store sell various hand made craft and souvenirs.  

One of the popular things you could do here is to Sand Board.  You rent skates from the stores by the water. You can do it yourself  by watching others. It is so much fun.  If you take a Dune Buggy ride they will stop at couple of places and guide you how to master it. It is pretty awesome.

These rides are not short and the guide is very nice and will take pictures for you and teach you how to’s. They have a lot of patience. 

It can be windy and watch for sand. They also go very fast. Downward hills are like roller coaster rides. But not scary. It is a small group or you could arrange to go alone. The price may vary. 

Our group was six of us and that is a fun size.  You could buy face coverings before you take the ride.
