2. Private Transfer

Reisedauer: ca. 17 Stunden

A private transfer is another choice if you want comfort on this lengthy trip.

Some tourist agencies offer these services. They can arrange this route with a private driver and a vehicle of your choice! 

This option allows you to arrange your trip, depart and arrive whenever you like, and be taken directly to your location in Ica!

However, since the distance is over 900 kilometers, finding a private transfer at a reasonable price might be very challenging.

So, we don’t recommend this option unless you want to splurge on your travels completely.

3. Rental Car

Reisedauer: ca. 17 Stunden

If you’re an adventurer looking to plan a beautiful road trip, I suggest renting a car in Cusco and driving yourself!

The trip will take roughly 17 hours, but it will be very enjoyable!

Renting a car allows you to go at your own pace and frequently stop to enjoy the journey. Additionally, renting a car in Cusco is inexpensive, so this is a fantastic choice to consider!

Seien Sie jedoch vorsichtig, wenn Sie in unbekannten Gegenden fahren, da der peruanische Verkehr wahrscheinlich sehr anders ist als das, was Sie in Ihrem Land gewohnt sind.

Daher, wenn Sie ein Auto mieten, fahren Sie vorsichtig und sicher.

My Tip:
If you don’t mind long overnight rides, go for the reclining-seat bus. It’s surprisingly comfortable, and you’ll wake up nearly there. A private transfer can be worth the splurge if you’re traveling with friends or family and want more control over stops and breaks. And if you love the freedom of the open road (and don’t mind Peruvian traffic), rent a car and turn the journey into an adventure.
