 Oh my lord! Hi, I'm Lavi and I'm Oli and this is our hero Bumblebee. Together we are attempting a Guinness World Record to become the youngest pair to circumnavigate the globe by motorcycle. Join us for season 3 here in South America. Good money world, welcome back to the channel. It's day number 329 on our circumnavigation around the globe by motorcycle. We're here in the town of Nazca in Peru. We've spent the last 12 days going through the mountains inland. We went to Colca Canyon, but that is a massive view. Absolutely incredible. We kind of went to the Rainbow Mountain. Look, look, look. There's Rainbow Mountain. And there we are down there. Rainbow Mountain there. We are there. Very close. Close enough. We went to Machu Picchu. Machu Picchu! And now after two days of crazy riding, we are back on the coast and we're hot again. Totally hot. So let me show you guys where we're heading today. So after weeks in the mountains, we are finally here back over near the coast. And today we are going to be checking out the lineas de Nazca, the Nazca Lions. And we don't exactly know how long that's going to take. But afterwards we'll be just making our way as far north as we can go. Yes, we are here in the town of Nazca to see the famous awesome ancient Nazca Lions. But we'll tell you more about that on the way. First thing to do is find some breakfast. We will stop at the supermarket because I am hungry. It's already eight o'clock, so better hit the road. Let's go. Just stop here. Okay. Twenty minutes later. What have you got for us? I went a little bit over the top but we were so desperate the last days for something to eat. So I got a lot of snacks and things like potato chips, two packages, a lot of noodles. Yes. Some bread, some breakfast. Yummy. It's like with honey as well. Olives. Oh my goodness. A lot of cereal bars. Some cheese, nice breakfast juice and like a whole bag of cupcakes. This is a feast. How much did everything cost? I think it wasn't too cheap. It's like 15 pounds. Okay. But 15 pounds for all of that feast. Yes. And we have a little bit of difficulty here to find like vegetarian food. So this is a perfect option when we are hungry and desperate to not die. Okay. So we are going to go over to the visitor's centre now and then we are going to eat breakfast over at the visitor's centre and then we are going to decide what we are going to do about seeing the Nazca lines. A little longer than a few minutes later. So we have arrived here at the airport and I think we are going to go on a flight, right? From England. England. Germany. Germany. Deutschland. I tried to bargain him down but he's like no, no, 60, 60. Okay, 60 then. So let me explain guys, basically there are two ways to see the Nazca lines. You can either climb the observation tower where you can see a couple of the lines or you can take a little plane because they have a little airport here in Nazca. How big is the plane? How many people? Six passengers. Six passengers. Can you show me what we will see? So here is the route. 18 figures. 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, more paredones ring aqueducts and mountain design. Wow, so we'll see 18 figures. Wow, that's incredible. More, three places more. And how long is the flight? 40 minutes. 40 minutes. He's telling us basically that we shouldn't really eat breakfast before going on the flight because people often get sick. Small breakfast. I hope we can trust our pilot. It's just going there. Okay. Do you have any last words? I asked the guy how many crashes they'd had and he was like, recently? No, I think he said they like had four or five or so. But he said that was when they had one pilot. But he said now they've got two pilots. One pilot had a heart attack. Oh my Lord. Shouldn't ask, eh? Exactly. Don't ask their tell. Oh my goodness. That's cozy. Gracias, bien. Glad I didn't throw up. I was feeling pretty sick towards the end. Wow. Oh, the guy's throwing up over there. Do you feel still sick on? Not at all. No, you're over it? Yeah, I'm over it. Yeah. Which Nascar line is your favorite? No, the monkey. The monkey. In 1954, the Pan-American road was built. Okay. They didn't know anything about the lines. No. And in 1974, 1976, the flight over the Nascar lines started. No way. And when they flew over, they realized that they cut... That they cut the lizard in half. No way. Thank you so much, Javier. No, thanks to you guys. It was a pleasure. It was a pleasure. Really silly because I bought some cheese and we were really excited for some cheese sandwiches right now. But look at the cheese. It's like completely melted. So I won't open it right now and we will just have some bread with some margarine. Thank you. All I can say is wow, wow, wow. What a crazy experience, hey? Yeah, absolutely. Really cool. Here's the runway right here. So it's a very, very small airport with some very, very small planes. Wow, but that was crazy. That's definitely an awesome way to see the Nascar lines from above. It was a little bit over budget for us. In the end, it cost us 60 US dollars per person to take the flight. But then you had to pay as well like an airport tax. And also you had to pay a sort of ticket to the Minister of Culture to see the lines. So in total, it was about 80 US dollars or about 65 pounds per person. Yeah, a little bit over budget, but of course it's like nice at the end that we have done it and that we could admire these figures from the air. I mean, how incredible is that? Yeah, it's just so incredible. These pictures have been there for like 2000 years, 2000 years plus. And it's interesting, the way that they make these geoglyphs was simply that they just removed the top layer of soil, which was a sort of darker color to reveal a lighter colored undersoil. And that's literally all they did. They just literally just moved the rocks out the way to create these patterns. Incredible. But they just did that on like a massive scale. And it's just crazy that even 2000 years later, they are still there. And you can still see them. You can see them from the sky. And it's like, there is a monkey. There's a cat. There's a dog. There's a hummingbird. It's just crazy that after all this time we can still recognize those animals, even though we have no idea why they made them. We don't know much about the Nazca culture in general. But we can see that's a monkey 2000 years later. Incredible. So I didn't get to say a whole lot about the Nazca lines when we were up in the plane because it was incredibly loud and I was going to throw up. Yeah, we had to concentrate not throwing up. Yeah, exactly. But I have a few facts if I can remember them about the Nazca lines. There are actually hundreds of Nazca lines and over 70 of them are zoomorphic. So based on animals and in total they added up all of the lines and they're more than 1300 kilometers of lines in this region. And they are anywhere between 2500 and 2000 years old. The lines were actually mentioned in literature by the Spanish in the 1500s. But at the time they just called them trail markers, trails. It wasn't until people started actually flying that they could fully appreciate and see the scale of this area. And it was in 1927 when a military pilot noted that he could see figures when he flew over. Yeah, incredible. And they said as well that today they actually discovered more and more with drones. And our co-pilot Javier told us that when they built the Pan-American road the road were actually about to take out into the desert. When they built this road they didn't even realize that they built the road directly through one of the geoglyphs which was the lizard. So they actually cut the lizard in half with the Pan-American highway. That's so funny. Wow. Yeah and over the years there have been some incidents. Javier told us about one guy I think it was like five years ago. A drunk guy with a truck basically managed to find his way out into the desert and apparently damaged three of the geoglyphs in one big joyride through the desert but they find him a lot of money. No, that's all. So now we are heading out of Nazca. Our time here is done and we're going to be basically following the Pan-American highway north now and we'll see how far we can get today. Yes, all the way to Ecuador. I can see a glyph from here. Yes. I don't think the GoPro will pick it up but there is definitely something on that hill over there. What is that? I don't know. Oh it's a whale. It's the whale. Yeah, it's a whale I think. No? Or is it the cat? It's the cat. It's the cat. Yes. Incredible. Nice. Crazy they're like 2,000 years ago they were like let's draw a giant picture of a cat. It's amazing that currently we are actually riding right through where we were but from here I can hardly see anything. There's just a couple of lines here and there. So we are coming up to the observation towers here which means we're also going to intersect the lizard and let's see what the lizard looks like from the ground and we see it at all. On one side is the tail and on one side is the rest of the body. Can't see anything. Yeah I saw it as well and on the other side I saw some lines as well. Well from the ground it looks like absolutely nothing. There's only from above that you can really see. Man that's a lizard right there. Incredible. Incredible. What a place. Yeah a very special place but by the way it's 35 degrees at the moment I'm boiling hot coming like straight from the mountains where we have like nice 11 degrees I'm like I'm a fried body at the moment. Yeah this morning we were like should we wear our coats or should we wear our new like under armour which where we can be a bit more breathable and we were like no no we'll try the coats for one more day it can't be that warm and it's literally like ok just reach 36 degrees so from tomorrow we're going to be going to our under armour and motocross tops. For sure. For sure. Yeah I don't know why but I'm so affected by the heat and I can feel my head already. I thought always that I'm a beach girl but I think I'm a mountain girl actually. You're a mountain goat. No I'm an apaca. We just saw that there's some geoglyphs on the hill over here and there's no one here so I'm pretty sure we'll be able to go here for free to have a look. It's just nice to be in the shade for a minute. Wow I'm boiling. Lavi's just staying behind in the shade I'm going to come and have a look at these geoglyphs so we can just about see them across the hill here. Wow. Maybe an owl. Giddy pig. I'm just making them up. On the other side as well in the very distance there's a couple of people on the hill over there and we can see lines across a lot of these hills as well. What a landscape. Ah. Here we go. It's got them here. Yes indeed an owl. Some sort of thing. Another thing. Some people. Incredible. How are you doing? I'm hot. Hot. I'm so incredibly hot. Yeah we're going to change from the coats now to our armor because it's just unbearable otherwise. Time to drink some water as well. Looking absolutely awesome in your fox top. Look at that. Breezy. Better. Better hey. Alright let's hit the desert. Wow there's even more geoglyphs on that hill just over there and on this hill over there. Yes absolutely incredible. It seems like that every hill here has actually like a figure on it. There's so many around. Really really crazy. So this area is called Palpa and apparently this is a civilization that even preceded the Nazca by a thousand years. So they estimate that these geoglyphs on the rocks around here were made 3,000 years ago. So the Nazca people actually copied these guys. Basically yes. Yes. There's one just over there. Yes. Beautiful and boiling. In the town of Ica and this is where we'll be stopping for the night but actually we won't be stopping in the town of Ica because right next to the town is an absolutely magical place and it's called Huacachina Ica. We'll be there in a minute. Once we get through the traffic. Wow look all the people walking up there. So can you believe that this is just outside of the town of Ica the craziest sand dunes ever and there's like oasis in the middle. So I think we've arrived right? Yeah it looks like it. This is it. This is Huacachina. Yeah welcome. Apparently there's a lagoon in the middle as well. So I think that's where we're headed hey? Yes. Oh I bet so many people getting stuck here. Yeah we just have to see how sandy the place is. Yeah if we can get there actually you know. Yeah or as well if there's a lagoon as well if there's any parking. When I saw online that this was like an oasis in the middle of the dunes I didn't really expect this to be honest. I mean this is super busy here. Wow it's really busy actually. Wow what a crazy place. Yeah. Wow and some people walking all the way up there. Wow. Yeah there's a fellow hiking all the way to the top. Wow put on him. Okay so the road has turned into sand. I'm gonna go on my own. Alright now we're talking. Okay it looks like it's not that far ahead. You see. It's just so busy here I can't believe it. Yeah not even the busy season. No. Desert Nights Hospitagin Restaurant there it is. Oh my god. Yeah I'm not sure there is parking to be honest. Oh god that was really close. Yeah. Oh my god. It's quite a sandy place yeah. Okay. Anyway let's stop here and see how we get on. Okay. Eventually. Happy to live. Yes welcome to the oasis of Huacachina. Look around. So it's basically a lake with palm trees surrounded by giant dunes. It's truly paradise here. But there's not just sand dunes here it's literally sand dunes the entire way around. I really really can't believe this place. It's like out of this world. It was super busy to come in and really really annoying but once you are in and you settle down a little bit it's just paradise here. It's well. And our place that we're staying is just here which is called Desert Nights Hospitagin and luckily they have parking for Bumblebee and they have a swimming pool as well. Time to check out this swimming pool in a minute. We paid 15 pounds for both in a dormitory room so at the moment we are just on our own but maybe some people are joining us later. So I'm really glad we got here before sunset so we can basically just chill here, watch the sunset over the dunes, maybe go for a swim. We're in paradise now. Yeah it was a pretty cool day today like being in the air, seeing the Nazca lines and then riding through the desert is just amazing. So I'm super super impressed. So that's it from us today. I hope you enjoyed the video. If so please give us a thumbs up, subscribe to the channel, share the video with your friends and family, comment below and we will see you next time. So welcome to the other area that our accommodation has. A pool. Next to the dunes. What? I'm speechless. Yes.
