Board the 4 AM bus, and as daybreak touches the horizon, you'll find yourself in Paracas. Your warm reception at the bus terminal leads to a maritime escapade to the Ballestas Islands, where the magnificence of sprawling colonies of sea lions, and myriad seabirds, including penguins, await.

As midday approaches, enjoy a break for lunch (at your own expense) before continuing your exploration.
