Promotion of 3 Excursions: Cafayate + Cachi + Salinas

Excellent service. Very well-prepared and willing guides. Very good adherence to schedules. To improve: establish the start times of excursions with more advance notice and with more precise pickup margins.

Amazing scenery and landscape. The guides were full of knowledge and information and made the trip more interesting and memorable. Not rushed and lots of stops to for toilet breaks and a stretch.

Each day is long with lots of driving but you see amazing scenery along the way. The two days that were led by Tiamar were well paced and had great guides. Unfortunately without any notice or explanation, on the third day I was placed in a tour operated by a different company, Parada Norte. This guide was not as good and didn’t really put an emphasis on keeping the group on time at the various stops. Overall I would still definitely recommend this tour.

The experiences were excellently selected. The time at each stop followed a rather demanding itinerary, so perhaps it gave the feeling that "we walked to the runs". In any case, the guides’ recommendations applied to paying attention to key points so as not to miss anything in the short time we had. I recommend doing this tour with rest days in between, we did the 3 runs and ended up exhausted, there really is much to discover! My only observation is regarding coordination as we had to be behind to be confirmed when we were picked up (even waking up much earlier because of doubts, missing hours of rest), but we didn’t know when the van was at the door. On the last day if he didn’t contact me, they wouldn’t come looking for us because they had noted that I was going to headquarter to leave from there. Outside of it, they were 3 beautiful days full of nice memories.

The tours are good, but it also depends of your tour guide, if its good you will have an amazing experience, but if it's a but of a don't care too much, then not much

It was a challenge to do 3 days of these tours because you will be in a tour bus all day. I would suggest breaking them up because they are very tiring. And don't eat at the suggested places for lunch. Find another place that is cheaper and it'll be better. Our favorite day was to Cachi.

I did the three excursions over three consecutive days: Cafayate, Cachi and Salinas. First off, all three involve a lot of driving, and long days. Our guide for the Cafayate excursion said we would be diving 400 km that day, so if this is not your thing..... We arrived back in Salta around 6:00 PM Day 1, 5:30 PM Day 2, and 7:00 PM Day 3. These times might vary depending upon traffic conditions, and whether guests want to make an additional technical stop for bathroom use or to buy water/snacks. The excursions are in nice passenger vans, which can hold 16-23 passengers depending upon the size. Each is air conditioned, and the seats are comfortable, with an overhead shelf for the storage of small backpacks and bags. Some people brought relatively big backpacks with them. Not needed! Smaller is better! All three excursions are good. If I had to pick between them, it would be a hard choice. If you've been to Uyuni, then you might find Salinas Grande a lesser comparison. All three days had fascinating scenery, interesting rock and mountain formations, and opportunities to see wildlife. The guides were uniformly excellent, and spoke both Spanish and English. My only complaint was on the Cafayate excursion, and the winery tour. We arrived just in time to participate in a tour of the facility by a winery staff member. The only problem is that many tours converged at the same time, so there were 60-70 people doing the winery tour at the same time. I found it be too congested with people, particularly when they were jockeying to get their free wine samples. Also, the tour was only given in Spanish, so for those of us who only spoke English, we could not understand, and it was 20 minutes of boredom.

Great agency and well organised three days. MUST DO if you are in Salta. If you have to pick one only, I'd go with the Salinas. The other two are also amazing though.

You will be picked up at the door or at the same block. Guide spoke English and told the story clearly. Enough stop points to enjoy the view. You don't have to mention food yourself, because you stop around lunch at villages where there are plenty of opportunities to eat. We did think there would be more walking, but this is totally not so. You sit in a van all the way and have small stops and a long stop for lunch, where you can then take a walk if you want.

We loved this guided excursion experience - from the accessible option in English to learning so much about the local history, Indigenous culture, trying local food & wine, and experience the beautiful landscapes within Salta! Fernando, our guide to Salinas Grandes was particularly exceptional with his enthusiasm and level of knowledge!
