About this activity

Hello, Traveler!

One tour you shouldn't miss when visiting Nasca is the Viewpoints Tour! We offer two options depending on how much time you have available.

You can choose the classic circuit, which includes two viewpoints where you can see the famous Nasca Lines from the observation tower and a natural hillside viewpoint. In both options, you can also visit the María Reiche Museum.

If you have more time, we highly recommend visiting the Palpa viewpoints, a more extensive tour that takes you further back in time to discover the ancient Paracas culture, which preceded the Nasca civilization.

The Viewpoints Tour is highly recommended before your flight, as it gives you valuable insight into the geoglyphs, the theories about how and why they were created, and the fascinating mysteries that still surround them. Even if you're not planning to take a flight, this experience will help you better understand these extraordinary ancient creations.

Itinerary

Geoglifos de Palpa

one hour Admission not included

The viewpoints are located about 45 minutes from the city of Nazca, in the district of Palpa, and our first stop could be the Llipata viewpoint. tour includes a visit to the Llipata viewpoint, where you can observe several impressive geoglyphs from a tower. This lookout provides a spectacular view of the Palpa Lines, which are considered even older than the Nazca Lines.

It is important to highlight that these figures are not included in the Nazca Lines flight, making this a special and unique experience that complements your journey through the region’s ancient wonders.
Nasca Lines

25 min Admission not included

We will then continue with two additional viewpoints that showcase the Nazca Lines. One of them is a metal tower over 20 meters high, donated by Yamagata University, from where you can clearly observe three of the most iconic figures: the Lizard, the Hands, and the Tree. From these strategic viewpoints, you will appreciate the scale, precision, and mystery of the geoglyphs in a way that perfectly complements the flight experience
Nasca Lines

25 min Admission not included

Finally, we will head to a hilltop, where you can admire straight lines stretching for many kilometers across the desert. Here, you will have the unique opportunity to say that you have actually stood on the Nazca Lines — the only place where it is possible to feel inside this magnificent ancient canvas.
