Day 1 - Lima - Ica - Nazca - Lima
You will be met and transferred to the Lima airport for your Aero Condor flight to Ica and the las Dunas Hotel. Here you will bourd the flight to Nazca for your afternoon overflight of the Nazca Lines. These desert drawings date back somewhere between 200 B.C. & 600 A.D. Here scientists & historians have been unable to explain the reason for the huge trapezoids, triangles, rectangles & quadrangles that stretch across miles of desert plain. The theories for these mysterious geo-glyphics left behind by the Nazca Indians range from, the reading of the constellations to weather forecasting and even ancient landing strips for space ships from some other planet. Though we may never find the true reason for these incredible pieces of art that are just as mysterious as the civilization that made them, your abilities to get a birds eye view, such as the ancient visitors may have, lets you form your own idea on their purpose to the Indians of the Nazca plain. Afternoon tour of Ica and lunch at the Las Dunas Hotel & Resort. Late afternoon depart by Aero Condor flight at 3:30 p.m. for your return to the Lima at 6:30 p.m. (L)
