Its a unique experience to see the Nazca lines from a small plane, but if you have a weak stomach do not do it.

My husband and I were recently on vacation in Peru. We had a great time, Peruvian Oddyssey did a wonderful job with all of our arrangements, except for the Aero Condor flight over the Nazca Lines.

We flew from Lima to Ica in a small plane with about 15 other tourists. On the way to Ica the plane few over the Lines for 20 minutes and then landed in Ica. We thought we were going to go back up to see more lines after lunch for the full promise of 45 minutes of seeing the lines.

We waited in the Ica airport from 11:00 until 12:30 to eat lunch. We were encouraged to see a small zoo behind the airport. Zoo had a Condor in a small cage and a pitiful Alpaca whose hooves and teeth needed immediate attention. I was very saddened by the care of these animals.

Finally we were taken in a bus to the Dunes resort for a lunch that lasted until 2:30. After realizing that there was going to be no more flights in a "smaller plane to see the lines," we complained with no results.

Finally, after wandering this resort for an hour and a half, we boarded the bus to see a small, but interesting museum, an oasis that had seen better times, (very decrepit), and a small winery for making Pisco.

We had been told we would be back in Lima at 5:00; we did not return until 7:00.

I feel we were really "ripped off" for $700.00. Better to see the lines in a book, sitting in the comfort of your home.
