Peru is quickly becoming a destination in its own right for foodies and vinos who want to taste world-class food and drink. The capital, Lima, is known for its Pisco Sours, the national cocktail, as well as fresh ceviche seafood. The city of Ica, a few hours south of Lima, is known for its wine bodegas, and close by is the desert sand dune oasis of Huacachina as well as the vineyards of Chincha. Explore Lima and southern Peru’s coastal region on this delicious Wineries of Peru Tour.
The Mistura festival, usually held in Lima each September, is a huge celebration of Peruvian food and drink. If you are interested in attending the Mistura event, just let us know and we can add that to your itinerary. Read more about Mistura here.

Arrive at the Lima airport, where your guide will greet you and take you to your hotel, situated in the Miraflores district. There are lots of shops, cafes, restaurants, and parks in this area -- spend the rest of the day at your leisure, exploring these spots on your own.
This morning, after breakfast in the hotel, enjoy a half day city tour. Learn about Lima's historic spots, walk through the Plaza de Armas and Plaza San Martin, and see some of its important landmarks. Then in the afternoon, you'll go on a Lima gastronomy tour to enjoy Pisco Sours, Peru's national cocktail, and learn what makes Peruvian food so distinctive.
Today, after breakfast, you'll take a private transfer to the city of Ica, located a few hour's drive south of Lima. In this city, there are several wine bodegas where Peruvian wine is produced. Enjoy wine tasting, and spend the afternoon having some fun in the sun at the desert oasis town of Huacachina. Located just a few minutes outside of Ica, this town consists of a small lagoon surrounded by palms, shops, restaurants, hotels, and beyond that, vast sand dunes. You can go on a fun dune buggy ride, try sandboarding, or just climb the dunes to see the sunset. Then transfer to the Hacienda Queirolo for a night at this gorgeous hotel.
En route back to Lima, stop at the historic town of Chincha, where there are several vineyards. Enjoy wine tasting at the Tabernero Winery or the Viñas de Oro pisco winery and factory. Then continue on to Lima, where you'll check back into your hotel.
After breakfast in the hotel, transfer to the Lima airport for your flight home or to your next destination.
If you have more time to spend in Peru, we recommend adding a night in Paracas Bay, near Ica, where you can see an incredible amount of wildlife and stunning landscapes.
