You should wear pants!!!! the sand burns you! but depends on what time you want to come to Ica. The summer is from December to February! Buy sunscreen, sunglasses and enjoy your trip!

Travelling down to Ica by bus and taking a taxi onto Huacachina is easy. It has a nice atmosphere to enjoy and is was easy to arrange day trips from there to do the Nazca line ( we booked our flight on line first though), and Ballestas Islands. Have fun you can't loose. There are wine tours and all sorts to choose from in that region depending on your interests and budget.

I stayed in the Hosteleria Suiza in Huacachina in March, they take bookings over the internet. The hotel is comfortable, has a pool, and the location is very nice. Ica is a bit nasty, no reason to stay there.

Sorry i can't answer your question accurately... i heard Soyus is a bus company they had kinda lockers for luggages and they do have a hotel... but not quite sure .... think about security first.... maybe the bus company you are travel with can hold your luggage and go huacachina have fun on the Dunes and wait till Arequipa fir a shower if you don't want to a pay a hotel.... but Ica has so many small hotels where you pay 30-+ soles so you arrived leave your stuff and come back shower and go... its more safe i guess

Nao sei se de Lima. Mas chegando em Ica o responsável​ pelo Pablo Tour foi quem fez meu passeio do dia todo. E foi muito bom o serviço. Nos recepcionaram no terminal de ônibus, foram conosco até o hostel e no dia seguinte nos buscaram e levaram em todos os passeios e depois novamente no hostel.

Consejo no tomes tours, te cobran el doble del costo y no te dan tiempo de disfrutar, toma un bus que te deja en Ica, hay dos agencias recomendables Soyuz y Cruz del Sur, el terminal de ambas en Ica es una frente a la otra y si deseas puedes caminar 5 cuadras y llegas a la plaza de Armas de Ica, allí puedes ver varios hospedajes, y si deseas ir directo al Oasis de la Huacachina, toma un taxi, el costo no excede de 15 soles, porque esta cerca a la ciudad, obsérvalo en google maps, no te dejes engañar por malos guias, que te hacen creer que queda lejos, eso si apunta la placa del taxi.
