Review of Huacachina sandboarding in Ica, with dune buggy rides, lessons, sunset views, pricing, timing, and practical booking advice.
“I know there are lots of "Sandboarding" in Huacachina but most of them wouldn't let you stand up on the board as they don't provide professional snowboard equipment. Sand Snow School aka Sandingboarding Peru provide you the equipment and instruction to help you get the full experience. Jhonny was our tour guide who not only gives me a lot of advice helping me to switch from Snowboarding to Sandboarding, but also did a great job in getting us some awesome video and photos for the gram! Definitely recommended”
