Tour Description

DAY 01: ARICA - IQUIQUE
Humberstone Departure towards Iquique crossing the driest desert in the world. We will watch the Geoglyphs of Chiza, Tiliviche and the Atacama Giant on Cerro Unita, the latter represents a Tiwanaku chief. At the Salt Deposit of Pintados we will watch hundreds of human, animal and geometric figures on the slopes of the hills beside the salt deposit. In the Pampas of Tamarugal Preserve the arid landscape transforms into a forest of tamarugos, native trees adapted to dry and salty soils. Box lunch.
In the early XX century the abundance of natural saltpeter allowed the enrichment of the coastal cities of the desert. However, with the invention of synthetic saltpeter dozens of installations were abandoned, being Humberstone one of them; we will tour its streets, the theater, the market and the church. Arrival in Iquique.

Useful Information

WEATHER
A coast desert weather is predominant in this region, with high cloudiness high and little daily thermal oscillation; above 3000 meters predominates a normal desert, or marginal high desert, with great atmospheric dryness and high daily thermal oscillation, registering a drop in temperature and precipitations in summer (Bolivian winter).

WHAT TO PACK
It is recommended to carry very light clothes for the daytime, since temperatures are extremely high in summer: light cotton t-shirts, short pants, bathing suit, shades, sunscreen and caps for the scorching hours, as well as coats, long pants, headwear and gloves, among others warming garments, if you intend to visit the Altiplano.

WATER
There is fresh water in almost the entire territory, although for those unused to tap water and in rural areas, it is advisable to drink bottled water.

HEALTH
Arica has an ample network of hospitals and clinics to respond to all sorts of emergencies.

CHILEAN GASTRONOMY
Chilean cuisine is very diverse. Among its typical dishes we have: Empanada de Pino (dough stuffed with onion, meat, raisins and olives), Pastel de Choclo (made mainly of corn with meat, eggs and olives), Porotos Granados (tender potatoes cooked with gourd and corn), Cazuela de Ave o Vacuno (clear soup of chicken or beef with boiled vegetables), besides those typical of each region. Lastly, you can not fail to taste the exquisite Mote con Huesillos, a dessert elaborated from a boiled fruit and mote wheat.

IMPORTANT: Enjoy Corporation keeps the right to make changes in the order of the excursions or trips without previous notice due to weather conditions, level of the rivers, arriving and departing hours of planes or buses, or for any other relevant reason, which will ensure and guarantee a better outcome for your trip.
