Where Wine, Pisco, and Adventure Await
Ica is the heart of Peru's most famous wine-growing region. Located 305 kilometers south of Lima, the region's arid environment provides ideal conditions for winemaking. In addition to sweet wines, several bodegas create the national drink, Pisco.
The bright city has old colonial-style houses and churches. City Tour Ica provides a detailed look at these historical sites and more. Huacachina oasis, on the outskirts of town, is one of Peru's most famous tourist spots.
The oasis is surrounded by an enormous desert landscape consisting of hundreds of dunes, some of which are more than 100 meters high. The dunes can be explored on foot or using sand buggies. It is certainly worth taking a paragliding flight to see the dune panorama from above, or going down the dunes by sand skiing or sandboarding Ica.
Wine enthusiasts should not miss a visit to the region's most important Bodegas, which offer pisco and wine tastings. The Regional Museum exhibits ceramics, textiles, skulls, shrunken heads, and mummies from the Nazca and Paracas cultures.
