Tacama Winery tour in Ica: Oldest vineyard plus artisan producer

Two wineries in a single afternoon: the grand estate and the small producer

A 4-hour winery tour in Ica pairs Hacienda Tacama, the oldest vineyard in South America, with a carefully chosen artisan producer. You'll see Tacama's colonial architecture, watch a film on winemaking, tour both the classic and modern facilities, and taste wines, sparkling wines and pisco at each stop. Pickup and return from your Ica hotel are included. The minimum age is 18.

The experience

Your afternoon starts at Hacienda Tacama with a short film that walks you through the winemaking process before you step into the property itself. The tour covers the classic winery building, the modern production plant, and the architecture that makes Tacama a living example of a traditional coastal hacienda: patio, chapel and bell tower all intact. You'll taste wines and pisco here, tasting the scale and precision of what a centuries-old operation produces.

From there you move to an artisan winery, a deliberate contrast to the grand estate. This stop is where you encounter the most traditional local production methods and taste what small-batch makers produce: wines, piscos and macerados (fruit-infused spirits). The route trades volume for selection, pairing one iconic landmark with one intimate producer so neither feels rushed.

Hotel pickup and return from Ica are included, and a guide speaks English or Spanish throughout. The tour runs 4 hours and suits all fitness levels, though it's not recommended for pregnant travelers.

What exactly is Hacienda Tacama and why is it significant?

Hacienda Tacama is the oldest vineyard in South America, a working estate that has operated for centuries. The tour includes its historic buildings (the chapel, bell tower and colonial-era patio) plus both the traditional winery and the modern production facility where wines and pisco are made today.

How much tasting happens at each winery?

You taste wines, sparkling wines and pisco at Hacienda Tacama, then move to the artisan winery where you taste wines, piscos and macerados. The tastings are built into the experience at both stops. The exact number of samples varies by what each producer offers.

Do I need to arrange my own transport, or is pickup included?

Pickup and return from your Ica hotel are included in the tour price. Tourist transport takes you to both wineries and back, so you don't need a car or arrange separate rides.

Is this tour suitable if I've never been to a winery before?

Yes. The tour opens with a film explaining winemaking processes, and guides walk you through both facilities. It's designed for all fitness levels and all experience levels with wine.

What's the difference between visiting Tacama and the artisan winery on the same tour?

Tacama shows you large-scale production at a historic estate with colonial architecture and centuries of tradition. The artisan winery shows you small-batch, traditional methods in a more intimate setting. Combining both in one afternoon gives you range instead of depth at a single location.
