Tour Description
The journey commences with hotel transfers in Salta at 07:00 AM
Guided by local experts, we make our way to the Quebrada de Humahuaca region, starting with a visit to Purmamarca to admire the Cerro de los Siete Colores, the Church, and the Artisan Market located in the square. We will pass through Horn Post, proceeding to Tilcara to explore Pucará and the Archaeological Museum.
The next destination is Huacalera, where we cross the Tropic of Capricorn. From here, you can witness the vibrant hues of the Pollera de la Colla Hill. We will also visit the Church of Uquía, known for its Angels Arcabuceros paintings (significant remnants of Cuzco style art). Upon reaching Humahuaca, you'll find its notable Cathedral and the Monument to Independence (El Indio) by sculptor Soto Avendaño.
Our adventure continues as we pass through Iturbe and Abra del Cóndor (3900 meters above sea level), arriving at the entrance of a quaint gorge where the small town of Iruya, with its pre-Hispanic roots, is nestled. We will spend the night here (accommodation not included). The following day, we embark on our return to Salta, making a stop in San Salvador de Jujuy along the way.
We arrive back at our hotels in Salta in the afternoon.
