  • 4Ruta 68 is astonishing, but not well organized this 2-day trip on the whole

    Outstanding road from Salta to Cafayate, the Ruta 68 is worth the entire trip to Salta. The guide of the first day trip was very nice, but the organization of this 2-days trip not too good: it wasn’t clear the day 1 we would have been brought to Cafayate by lunch (we supposed by evening instead), and we had to ask several times about the pick-up of the next day (to come back to Salta). And basically the second day “trip” is only a return to Salta.

  • 5A fantastic trip

    Wow! A fantastic trip especially the journey through La Quebrada de las Conchas, a spectacular landscape! The guide was brilliant and so knowledgeable. The wine tasting and tour was a little brief but we thoroughly enjoyed the trip.

  • 5Great trip, beautiful scenery

    Fantastic trip and excellent guide. I am glad I stayed overnight in Cafayate to do some more winetasting. And it is a long trip for one day! Break it into two if you have the time!

  • 2Just book a full day tour not two day tour

    The two day tour was actually half a day tour and transportations between salta and cafayate. The guide was great speaking English (but not winery and he did not translate it) . I missed to see one of the highlight of the tour because the fist bus stopped there on the way back to salta and the other bus on the following day already stopped at there on the way to cafayate, so I missed it:( I paid more than other tourists and got less. I recommend to book just a full day tour, so you won’t miss anything, OR book a full day tour and talk to the travel agency directly to accommodate your needs if you want to stay in cafayate.

  • 2Just book a full day tour

    This is a two day tour, but actually a half day tour with a transportation between salta and cafayate. I missed the highlight of the site because the bus stopped at there on the way back to Salta and the other bus on the following day stopped on the way to cafayate. I paid more than other tourists but did not get anything more, even less. If you want to spend a night in cafayate, I recommend to book one day tour and talked to the travel agency directly to accommodate your needs. I’m upset not to be able to see “amphitheater”+ the bus picked me up earlier than schedule time, so I had to change my plan.

  • 5Totally worth every penny

    Our guide Monica was amazing !!! If you’re lucky enough to get her she will make this trip a memorable one! She had us laughing in both Spanish and English and was very knowledgeable about the area. The trip itself is unreal. Amazing views and so much to see. I would recommend spending the night in Cafayate so you can break up the drive and also explore the beautiful wine town more. Loved this excursion !

About Salta

Salta, a colonial city in a green valley of north-west Argentina, is the base for the Andean canyons, vineyards and high desert of the region.

Salta sits in the Lerma Valley at about 1,200 metres, ringed by green hills at the edge of the Andes. Its centre keeps Spanish colonial buildings around the Plaza 9 de Julio, among them a pink-fronted cathedral, the arcaded Cabildo and the Convent of San Bernardo with its carved wooden door. A cable car climbs Cerro San Bernardo for a view over the rooftops.

Top-ranked sights in Salta: Great Salt Flats (Salinas Grandes), Devil’s Throat (Garganta del Diablo), Purmamarca.
