Tour Description
The journey kicks off with a hotel transfer from Salta at 7:00 a.m.
Guided by local experts, we venture into the Quebrada de Humahuaca, starting with a visit to Purmamarca. Here, you'll marvel at the Cerro de los Siete Colores, explore the Church, and wander through the Artisan Market in the town square. Our route takes us past Horn Post and onward to Tilcara, where we'll explore Pucará and the Archaeological Museum.
The next destination is Huacalera, where we cross the Tropic of Capricorn, offering views of the vibrant Pollera de la Colla Hill. We'll visit the Church of Uquía, home to the remarkable paintings of the Angels Arcabuceros, a significant piece of Cuzco style art. Our journey leads us to Humahuaca, renowned for its impressive Cathedral and the Monument to Independence (El Indio), crafted by the sculptor Soto Avendaño.
Continuing our expedition, we pass through Iturbe and Abra del Cóndor (3900 masl), arriving at a quaint gorge where the pre-Hispanic town of Iruya is nestled. We'll spend the night here (accommodation not included), and the following day, we'll embark on our return to Salta, making a stop in San Salvador de Jujuy.
We'll arrive back at our hotels in Salta by the afternoon.
