    Getting TO/AROUND: Getting to Pisco is a breeze. Just take one of the many buses from Lima. They charge about $1 USD per hour traveled.

    Now, getting to the Islas Ballestas and Paraca peninsula can be tricky. You have to get a tour. It's best not to buy the tour from your hotel/hostel (trust me). The cheapest and more convenient option is to purchase it from one of the many travel agencies around the main palca (Plaza de Armas). These companies offer the same tour as the hotels at about 2/3 of the cost! It's the same tour! All the companies have the same boats and vehicles! In fact, it's as though it's one giant company that sells it's services to the hotels and travel agents. So you can end up spending hundreds of soles or just a few soles for the same service! Game of the town is to shop around for the best deal!
