We had a great time on this tour, I liked that it was just my sister and I. Our guide gave us the history and gave us all the time we wanted to look and take photos. We saw a variety of drawings from animals to geometric shapes. I recommend this tour by land.

I had read about the Nazca Lines years ago, and then seen a show on the Travel Channel about these, and therefore wanted to go and see it for myself. This would be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and boy, it certainly was!
