Paracas to Huacachina by Bus: 2024 updated information about bus schedules, bus safety, and the best bus to take!
Paracas to Huacachina takes around 1.5 hours by road (no air travel possible). Read below to know why bus travel is the best way between Lima and Huacachina and who the best bus companies are.
Paracas to Huacachina is a quick and direct journey, however it’s important you choose the correct bus company. Please note that Peru Hop is the ONLY bus company allowed directly into Huacachina Oasis. All other bus companies can only go as far as Ica, so you will need to organize transport to and from Ica.
.For those planning a quick journey departing from Lima and with only a short amount of time, a day trip from Lima is recommended. This allows you to see the Ballestas Islands (mini-Galapagos) in Paracas and do Dune Buggy & Sandboarding in Huacachina all on the same day and return to Lima the same evening. Multi-day options are also available for those with more time, with visits to the Nazca Lines included.

Huacachina for many is one of Peru’s best destinations. The always sunny desert oasis is the perfect place to relax and enjoy some adrenaline-fueled activities. We recommend staying 1 to 2 days to get the best of what it has to offer.
