Experience the best of Iquique with the City Tour + Corvette Esmeralda Museum, blending urban heritage with Chile’s naval history.


We’ll start the tour with the visit to the Cavancha peninsula, including the Grotto of Lourdes and Cavancha Beach theme park. You’ll continue to 21 de Mayo Square and the monument to naval hero Arturo Prat.


Next, you’ll stroll along the iconic Baquedano Boulevard with its historic mansions, reaching Prat Square with the 1877 Clock Tower and the 1890 Municipal Theater. The highlight is the Corvette Esmeralda Museum, a life-size replica of the original ship where you’ll explore its deck, cannons, engine room, and learn about the Naval Battle of Iquique, May 21, 1879.


To end the experience, you can choose between returning to your hotel or enjoying free time at the ZOFRI Mall.
