Pisco, Paracas, and Islas Ballestas...guano gallore!

The poverty sticken town of Picso is a great place to take a tour to the quaint fishing village Paracas, the Island of Ballestas, and Reserva Nacional De Paracas. Pisco´s nearby island tour is dubbed the ¨poor man´s Galapagos,¨ and offers views of the enigmatic candlabra, sea lions, penguins, many other birds, and lots of dramatic ocean scaped scenes draped in guano gallore.

The area is on the ocean and about 4 hours south of Lima.
