Getting Around in Ica

Ica is quite spread out, and getting around town will most likely involve taking inexpensive taxis, which flood the streets. (Most trips in town cost less than USD 2.) Taxis are especially useful in visiting the wineries located outside of town. There are also ciclotaxis, or bicycle rickshaws, which are cheaper still but less secure. Some visitors enjoy taking them out to Huacachina.

You can arrange Nasca Lines overflights from Ica, although it’s considerably more common (not to mention cheaper) to do it in Nasca. If you want to do it from Ica, contact AeroCondor, in the Hotel Las Dunas at Av. La Angostura 400 ; or Inca Baths Tours, Lima 171 on the Plaza de Armas . For other organized tours, contact Huacachina Tours, Av. La Angostura 355, L-47, in front of the Hotel Las Dunas , or Pelican Travel and Service, Independencia 156 and Lima 121.
