Punta Arenas Shore Excursion: City Sightseeing Tour

While in port in Punta Arenas, see the cityŒÍs historical highlights on this 2-hour shore excursion. Take in sweeping views of the Strait of Magellan from Cerro Mirador and visit the cityŒÍs historical cemetery to admire the elaborate tombs. At the Regional Salesian Museum youŒÍll learn about the indigenous people who inhabited Patagonia, and enjoy a tour of the Magallanes Regional Museum in the Braun-Menendez Palace.

After your cruise ship docks in Punta Arenas (Sandy Point), one of PatagoniaŒÍs largest cities, see top historical attractions on a shore excursion with an informative guide.

First, drive one half hour to Cerro Mirador, a ski resort located within Magallenes National Reserve, and climb the hill Œ_ 2,000 feet (600 meters) above sea level Œ_ for a fantastic panoramic view of the city and sea! Take a few photos of the Strait of Magellan and Tierra del Fuego, and then head to the cityŒÍs historical cemetery, one of the cityŒÍs most popular locations.

Here, enter through the portico and stroll down paths lined with European Cypress, and admire the marble sculptures, tombs and mausoleums adorned with iron and brass. Within the high walls that surround the cemetery, your guide will point out the chapels belonging to the cityŒÍs most eminent families.

Next, head to Plaza Muí±oz Gamero, the cityŒÍs main square, to view the Memorial to Portuguese explorer, Admiral Ferdinand Magellan, whose brass statue stands above that of an Onas Indian.

Continue to the Regional Salesian Museum, named after the missionaries who settled the area in the 19th century. See interesting exhibits on the Yíçmana, Tehuelche, Onas and Alacalufe cultures to learn about the native people who once populated the entire region.

Then, visit the Magallanes Regional Museum inside the Mauricio Braun and Josefina Mení©ndez palace, one of the cityŒÍs former mansions, built in 1903. See the museumŒÍs historical displays and a permanent collection of gorgeous furnishings brought from Europe.
