After our visit to Paracas and the Ballestas Islands<\/a>, we hopped on the bus to Huacachina. Huacachina is a beautiful oasis in the middle of the Peruvian desert. This place is known for its sandboarding and its tours through the desert. We booked a tour through Peru Hop for only \u20ac12.50. The tour lasted about 2 hours and took us through most of the desert surrounding Huacachina.<\/strong> About 1 hour after arriving in Huacachina, we were already on our way to the dune buggies. We were quite a big group of Peru Hop people who were all divided in small dune buggies (8 people per buggy). On the way to the buggies, I spotted some people carrying ski’s and snowboards. I didn’t realise you could actually rent equipment to ski or sandboard down the dunes. It looked really cool, but since I didn’t know that was a possibility, we just stuck to the normal tour.<\/p>\n <\/a> After about an hour cruising through the Peruvian desert, the driver parked the dune buggy on top of a high hill and took out the sandboards. He made us apply wax to make sure we were going down the dunes even faster. Simen was the guinea pig of the group and slid down on his belly down the hill. The other couples and me stared down the hill, not entirely convinced. We hadn’t thought the first hill was going to be this steep! After contemplating for a bit, I handed my sandboard over to the driver, lied down my belly and slid down the hill myself. It was really cool!<\/p>\n <\/a>
\n <\/a><\/p>\nCruising the desert in dune buggies<\/h2>\n
\nWe were paired up with 3 other couples and hopped on the dune buggies. After making sure our safety belts were secured tightly, we were on our way. I was slightly nervous while Simen was smiling from ear to ear from excitement. We had only just left the meeting point when our driver immediately drove straight down a very steep dune. It felt like being in a rollercoaser! He cruised through the whole desert, driving straight down various very, very steep dunes at quite a high speed. It was so much fun! Everyone was constantly screaming.
\n <\/a><\/p>\nFrom snow to sand<\/h2>\n
\nWe were both hooked from the start. While everyone else took their time deciding if they wanted to go down the hill, we immediately tried out all the other hills. After the first couple of hills the driver took us to some other, even steeper hills so we could sandboard a bit more. After the sandboarding the driver drove us to a beautiful spot where we could watch the sunset. It was really nice to see the sun go down on top of the dunes. After watching the sunset, the tour was over and everyone returned to the hotels with smiles on their faces.<\/p>\n
