Frequently Asked Questions
The Buenos Aires and Northern Corridor tour package typically includes accommodation with breakfast, airport-hotel-airport transfers, transportation on excursions, a bilingual guide (Spanish/English), and assistance during the trip. In Buenos Aires, a city tour and free time for experiences such as a tango show or sampling Buenos Aires cuisine are usually offered. In Northwest Argentina (Salta and Jujuy), the typical itinerary includes visits to the Quebrada de Humahuaca, Purmamarca, Tilcara, Salinas Grandes, and, depending on the route, wineries in Cafayate. Some departures include domestic flights and entrance fees, while others offer them as optional extras. Exact inclusions may vary by season and hotel category; please request the most up-to-date details.
The typical duration is 7 to 10 days, combining urban culture with the landscapes of Northwest Argentina. A common itinerary includes 2 or 3 nights in Buenos Aires with a city tour, free time, and optional activities; a flight to Salta; full-day excursions through the Quebrada de Humahuaca (Purmamarca, Tilcara), a visit to Salinas Grandes, and, if chosen, a wine tour through Cafayate. Museums and folk music venues can also be added. The program is flexible and can be adapted to the traveler's pace, budget, and preferred accommodation. Please consult the day-by-day itinerary to confirm schedules, distances, included meals, and overnight stays.
You can travel year-round, but the best time to visit the Northern Corridor is usually autumn (April–June) and spring (September–November), with mild weather and clear skies ideal for photography and outdoor activities. Summer (December–March) brings rain to Northwest Argentina, although the landscapes are lush and green; winter nights are cold and the temperature range is significant. Buenos Aires is hotter and more humid in summer, and mild in spring and autumn. Pack layers, a hat, sunscreen, and a light jacket. If your trip prioritizes festivals, such as the grape harvest in Cafayate or Carnival in Jujuy, check dates in advance.
The excursions range from low to moderate in physical exertion, with short hikes over uneven terrain. Some activities reach high altitudes in the Puna and Salinas Grandes (over 3,500 meters above sea level), so it's advisable to stay hydrated, avoid alcohol, and consult your doctor if you have heart or respiratory conditions. We recommend trekking boots, a windproof jacket, thermal clothing due to the temperature fluctuations, sunglasses, sunscreen, insect repellent, and a reusable water bottle. Bring a small amount of cash for handicrafts and regional cuisine during the tour. The operator usually provides a licensed tourist vehicle and a local guide who is an expert in Andean culture, history, and geography.
To book the Buenos Aires and Northern Corridor tour, a deposit is usually required, with the balance due before departure. Credit cards and bank transfers are accepted. Cancellation and change policies vary depending on hotels, excursions, and domestic flights: the earlier you cancel, the lower the penalty. Rescheduling is possible, subject to availability and current rates. We recommend purchasing travel insurance with medical and cancellation coverage. Please verify your documentation: a valid passport or national ID, visa requirements based on your nationality, and payment method. The currency at your destination is the Argentine peso; check exchange rates. Customer service is available 24/7.
