DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Minimum age: 2-years-old

See the mysterious Nazca Lines in southern Peru on a 35 minute flight. Due to the large amounts of geoglyphs, the Nazca Lines have been an official UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1994. The lines can only be fully seen and appreciated from the air and this flight will take you over the high plateau of the desert where the figures were designed. The lines date back to between 500 BC and 500 AD with figures such as spiders, monkeys, fish, and hummingbirds scratched on the arid surface of the desert.

Believed to have had astronomical ritual functions, there are many different theories behind the lines and their construction. Although you may not solve the mystery of their creation, you will get to appreciate them from the sky, along with views of one of the driest places on earth.

Our fully certified aircrafts (Cessna 207A 6/8 seaters) are specifically designed for this type of flight. All of them have a two-way intercom for communication between the pilots and passengers, this way our experienced guides/pilots can give important information during the flight ensuring the passengers are both comfortable and informed while taking time to appreciate the stunning panoramic windows.
All our pilots are fully qualified and our planes maintained to the highest international standards.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
  1. I cannot find my accommodation listed in the operator pick up locations as I make my booking. What can I select?

    This operator only offers pick-ups from the hotel and hostel accommodation listed. This list covers over 90% of the accommodation providers in the area. They do not provide pick-ups or drop-offs at private residences, Airbnbs, bus terminals etc. If you cannot find your hotel on the list, please select an alternative pick up location close by and be ready for pick-up at the time shown on your booking confirmation.

  2. Do we offer pick ups from bus terminal?

    Yes, for passengers who arrive at the bus terminal and have booked a flight for that day, you can select your bus company as a pick up location (i.e CRUZ DEL SUR, NAZCA). If you arrive early and have time to spare before your flight, feel free to grab some snacks and a drink but be back to the bus terminal on time for your designated pick up time stated on the booking confirmation from the operator.
