The only way to get to Nasca is by land. Luxury buses run daily from Lima (7 hours to Nasca). However, it’s possible to arrange charter flights from Lima or Ica that include overflights of the Nasca Lines, but are cost prohibitive for most travelers, and give very short shrift to the region. Also an excellent option to explore the desert around Nasca is to rent a 4x4 all-wheel drive Jeep or SUV.
Lima (446 km / 279 miles)
By bus is the only reliable way to Nasca other than charter flight. Cruz del Sur go through Nasca on the way to Arequipa; the trip to Nasca takes about 7 hours and it is recommendable to travel during the day, living early in the morning at 7 a.m.
Arequipa (564 km / 353 miles)
Cruz del Sur buses depart daily from Nasca to Arequipa (9 hours).
Cusco (660 km / 413 miles)
