Customer Reviews
We went to the salinas grande with Fabio. And that was great. Thanks to Fabio we had a lot of fun in the bus. As we can‘t understand Spanish he translated everything in English to us, even the jokes in the bus. By that we never felt not being part of the group. He showed us the fantastic countryside, and explained very interesting facts about flora and fauna. He took care that everybody was feeling well when we came up to 4000 m. the salinas grande were fantastic and a real highlight. But beside this we saw a Kondor and guanacas and a baby lama.We stopped at nice places to take pictures and had a fantastic meal in a very nice restaurant with live music. Fabio gave us enough time in every place. It was an amazing day. Thank you, Fabio.
Very good!! Fabio is a great tour guide. He has a lot of passion for his work. And he goes an extra mile to make the tour more fun! 😍
Amazing experience exploring Cafayate with Ximena and Raul ! We saw the most amazing parts of the region for a really good price ! Ximena was such a lovely tour guide offering interesting facts and local knowledge. The tour offered both a Spanish and English translation. The drive was smooth and we enjoyed our free time to explore the town of Cafayate too. We enjoyed a wine tour too! 100% recommended. Muchísimas gracias todos
