https://www.TravelsWithSheila.com October 20, 2022 -- The included Iquique excursion travels to Humberstone and Santa Clara in the Atacama Desert, former nitrate towns. When I learn it is a 1-1/2 trip in each direction with only 1 hour in both places, we decide to miss. Please don't forget to Share, Like and Subscribe! Thanks.
