Ilo Day Trip
We will pick you up from your hotel in Tacna at 8 am for a day trip to Ilo. On the way, we will pass through the Ite Wetlands, viewing lagoons home to almost 150 species of birds, including flamingos, ducks, and seagulls.
Before reaching the city center, we will stop at the Chiribayo Museum in Ilo to explore the history of the pre-Columbian civilization that inhabited the central-southern Andes from the 10th to 15th centuries, featuring mummies, textile samples, and ceramic objects.
Next, we will tour the historic centre of Ilo, visiting the Plaza de Armas and the Church of San Jerónimo, constructed in 1871. We will then proceed to the significant Port of Ilo, where Chilean troops landed during the War of the Pacific.
A walk along the Venus Bridge will lead us to the José Gálvez roundabout, a symbol of Ilo with views of the coastline. Afterward, you can have lunch at your leisure at one of the local restaurants before we stroll along Ilo's beautiful beaches, including Puerto Inglés and Pozo de Lizas.
We will return to Tacna, dropping you off at your hotel by 5 pm.
