Beyond the standard trip to Machu Picchu, Mystery Peru offers to organize a broad variety of tours. Headquartered in Nazca, area attractions such as the Nazca Lines and San Fernando Bay are of course covered, but this outfit separates itself from others by the sheer availability of options. Popular trips arranged include sandboarding the dunes of Cerro Blanco ($30 per person) and buggy tours to the Huacachina Oasis. If you've got the time and desire to see all of Peru, try the Highlights of Peru trip--22 days/21 nights of touring excitement that'll have exploring the country's most impressive sights.

Mystery Peru is a local Nasca agency that we booked several tours through including:
- overflights of Nasca Lines
- personal guided tour of Nasca Museum,
- Cantallo Aqueduct system
- personal guided tour of Chauchillo Cemetery
- car and driver from Nasca to Arequipa
- tour to the Colca Canyan from Arequipa
- tour of Lake Titicaca
Enrique, the owner, is extremely competent and detail-oriented. He made sure everything went off without a hitch. This was a great way of doing these tours for a family of 4, with having one personal guide take us to these places -- instead of being part of a big bus group of tourists.
Tours to the Colca Canyon and Lake Titicaca were arranged by him through other agencies, and thus were with larger groups of people. But he made sure everything was organized clearly, and that we were picked up at the right time, and at the right places. Even when we had to change hotels in Puno, we emailed him, and he immediately sent a contact to double-check our location.
One tip about the Nasca Lines -- take your GRAVOL before you get up in the air!!!
We found the 9-hour drive during the day, in a private van much preferrable over the overnight bus. We got to see the variance in landscape, saw dolphins in the ocean, small shanty towns--and not have to cope with trying to sleep on a bus.
