This exciting excursion takes you to the UNESCO World Heritage listed Quebrada de Humahuaca, where you’ll discover stunning landscapes, ancient monuments, and vibrant towns that reflect the rich cultural heritage of Argentina’s northwest region. Starting with the colorful town of Purmamarca, famous for its striking Hill of the Seven Colors, you will also visit the nearby Maimará, known for its breathtaking Painter’s Palettes. Continuing through the region, the tour stops at Tilcara, where the ruins of a high mountain fortress, known as the Pucará, stand tall as a testament to pre-Columbian culture. Other notable towns along the way include Uquía, where you can visit a traditional ceramic factory, and the city of Humahuaca, the largest town in the Quebrada, known for its colonial charm and lively cultural scene.
In addition to the historical and cultural exploration, the excursion also includes a visit to Salinas Grandes, a vast salt flat located in the province of Jujuy. Here, you’ll marvel at the stunning white expanse of salt, offering incredible photo opportunities and the chance to experience one of Argentina’s most unique natural wonders. The Cerro de los Siete Colores, or Hill of Seven Colors, is another highlight of this journey, showcasing the striking hues of red, orange, purple, and green that have made this area internationally renowned.
To wrap up the experience, you’ll visit the famous Purmamarca crafts market, where you can shop for colorful, locally made souvenirs such as handwoven textiles, ceramics, and jewelry.

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.

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

We had two tours from La Quebrada with Ximena to Cachi and Fabio to Humahuaca. We had the most unforgettable day with the best tour guide ever Fabio!!! We went to Humahuaca with him through Pulmamarca, Tilcara and more than 7 stops on the way! He is the most fun and entertaining guide we have ever met and he made us laugh the whole time. Not only that but he stopped at the best place, with the best views, took photos of us, gave us the best tips and recommendations and in the end gave us all a local gift. How amazing!!! We truly had the best day! We had an amazing tour with Ximena to Cachi and Los Cardones National Park. She is such an excellent tour guide, with great English, gave us to try different things such as local cream, local leaves, local spray and immersed ourselves in the culture. Strongly recommend!!

If you're greeted in the morning by a smiling Milagros guide and the driver is nicknamed 'Animal', then you know it's going to be a perfect day. Well, it really was. The guide gave us a lot of new information with her kindness, good will and warmth. The program was interesting and we would definitely take part in such trips again. Thank you for a perfect day.
