Spectacular museum, they tell you all the functioning of La Esmeralda, giving a guided walk explaining each sector of the ship and its use, as well as where they slept, ate and did their activities the tribulation. As a child you are taught the history of Arturo Prat at school and to actually see how things happened in the same boat is very interesting, totally recommended. I recommend buying tickets online in advance so you don’t have to wait. We arrived 11.20 and just entered the museum with the 12.30 group. We take advantage of going to visit the Cathedral Church Immaculate Parish Conception Iquique in the meantime; and the square Condell which is like a walk through the center.

A very emotional museum, transports you to the past in a very explanatory way. The right guides, with a lot of subject matter knowledge. I recommend at the end of the tour to go to eat at the restaurant “la español” next door ☺️

Excellent experience to learn more about Chilean history. Guided tour who had total and excellent willingness to clarify doubts and accompany the whole tour. It is certainly a place you should know when visiting the city of Iquique.
