Embark on an unforgettable adventure with our “Mystery of the Nazca Lines” tour. This journey will take you through the amazing Nazca and Palpa Lines, allowing you to appreciate 25 impressive geoglyphs from two altitudes designated by the control tower: 2500 feet and 3000 feet.

During this one-hour flight, you will marvel at the perfection of the Nazca geoglyphs, such as the Astronaut (135 meters), the Hummingbird (97 meters), the Monkey (110 meters), the Condor (135 meters), and many more. You will also be amazed by the geoglyphs of Palpa, which include the Star (85 meters long), the Kosok Bird (120 meters long), and the Temple of Fertility (300 meters long). In addition to the geoglyphs, you will have the opportunity to see the city of Nasca from the air, as well as the Cantalloc aqueducts, a testimony of the advanced hydraulic system of the Nasca culture, and the Paredones ruin, which shows the adobe architecture used at that time.

Our tour is offered exclusively by Alas Peruanas, and is designed to offer you a panoramic view of the Nazca and Palpa Lines. German mathematician Maria Reiche proposed that the Nazca Lines functioned as a great astronomical calendar, testimony to the advanced understanding of the cosmos by ancient Peruvian civilizations. On the other hand, the writer Erich Von Däniken put forward an intriguing theory: these geoglyphs could have been a landing site for extraterrestrial spacecraft. After studying the trapezoids located in Palpa, he argues that these markings could have been left by extraterrestrial spacecraft that landed there.

Regardless of which theory you prefer, one thing is certain: the Nazca and Palpa Lines are a breathtaking spectacle not to be missed. We look forward to welcoming you aboard and sharing with you the mysteries of these ancient wonders.

We maintain a fleet of Cessna model 207 and 172 aircraft, specially designed for low speed flying. These planes are highly recommended by professional photographers due to their panoramic windows and stability in the air.
