The Northwest - Salta and Jujuy

Salta is one of Argentina’s best kept secrets. Many visitors fall in love with the place and return time and time again. Lying at the foothills of the Andes, Salta is found nestled in a lush and verdant valley. Here you can explore many well-preserved colonial towns and villages. A visit to this region will be one filled with the delight of discovery and a unique sense of freedom.

You’ll explore this stunning region by 4 wheel drive, giving you the chance to reach areas others can’t. Enjoy an unforgettable drive into the vast puna plateau and salt flats looking for vicunas and llamas.

200 km northwest of Salta, the jungle-clad cloud forests of Parque Nacional El Rey contrast with the town of Jujuy, the highest provincial capital in the country. Resting under the incredible ochre tones of the Humahuaca canyon, here you can find enchanting scenery and colours that echo the spectacular colours found in the Atacama Desert just across the Andes.

This holiday is ideal for anyone who would like to take some time to really experience the heart of rural Argentina and the warmth of Argentinean hospitality.

* Prices are per person, based on double occupancy.
