Service: 1 hour 30 minute flight over the Nazca lines.
Itinerary: Face one of the world’s greatest mysteries while overflying the Nazca Lines. The town,
settled besides a small river crossing the desolate plain of San Jose, passed unnoticed until
commercial airlines began crossing the desert during the late 1920’s. Scientist’s attention was
immediately drawn to Nazca but the mystery remains unsolved. What exact purpose did they
meet? We don’t quite know. The truth is they depict coastal, highland and jungle fauna (whale,
hummingbird, monkey, spider) as well as geometric figures (lines, trapeze, triangle). Thereafter,
weather and air-traffic controllers permitting, fly above the figured-scrapped hills of Palpa. The
Palpa Lines are believed to predate those of Nazca, picturing animals and human figures and a
prominent deity. The Nazca culture flourished between 50 B.C. and 600 A.D, studies suggesting
their society suffered an environmental collapse derived from huarango deforestation.
