Salinas fra Purmamarca + Humahuaca på 2 dage

One of the most impressive places I've ever known.Sit in the Providence of Jujuy in northern Argentina.The average altitude is about 4000m. It's an immense white salt desert, formed millions of years ago when an ancient saline lagoon evaporated, leaving a layer of salt in the soil. Wear plenty of sunscreen, glasses and a hoodie.There are photographers on site who take photos with a fun perspective.

Day 1: The first day we were at the Salinas Grandes. Instead of the described 60 minutes we had only 40 minutes. Admission had to be paid in cash – no chance without cash. In addition, we were advised that a rare phenomenon appeared on the salt flat directly next to the closed area: The sky reflected perfectly in the water on the salt. Nevertheless, we were forbidden to take a picture there or stop the van briefly so that everyone could take a picture briefly. Day 2: On the second day, the tour was almost two hours late. In Purmamarca we were dropped off again for 45 minutes, although we were already long enough there the day before or some had stayed there. It turned out that the tour was actually divided into two parts: A part went to Hornocal – I would have loved to do that, but I was neither shown this option nor asked. The rest of us then had to wait 1.5 hours in the small town of Humahuaca, where there is nothing special to see. At least we could have been explained or shown something, instead we were just dropped off and left to our own devices. The second day of the tour can therefore be saved. The guides were nice, but overall both tours seemed loveless

Salinas is u. Unbelievable place, Purmamarca also unfortunately the tour in two days are handled by different agencies the guide of the day 1 did not answer my questions, nor was he aware of my departure the next day from Purmamarca. TIAMOR agency does not respond in a timely manner. On the day of the departure from Purmamarca they did not communicate early to inform me of the departure time , they called me about the weather and I was not ready and due to the lack of prior information I decided not to do the second day and stay in Purmamarca. The agency did not reimburse me and it was very unpleasant when I told them about my inconveniences. Unfortunate because the places are beautiful. The truth between agencies is derived passengers and it is difficult to obtain prior information. I do not advise taking the two-day tour. I advise to get to Purmamarca and from there hire the salt pans. It's better to go straight through the agencies, I really liked Nordic. DO NOT HIRE WITH TIAMOR are unpleasant and do not give information Advice to contract with agencies directly and not go through platforms like this that are not agencies directly. I knew my agency was TIAMOR (lousy, not responding in a timely manner) and the guide who contacted me was contracted to another agency ZAINO. So there is a lot of uncoordination because the passengers are exchanged and the guides are lost. She didn't have my information on her spreadsheet.

Guides super kind and welcoming. It is truly 2 different tours in 2 days with different groups, but each one is worth it and the best way to see a lot in little time. The sites are wonderful, pics don't do them justice. Staying overnight in Purmamarca made a huge difference. There are several good options to stay at, and then you simply coordinate via WhatsApp to get picked up with the next tour the following morning at the bus station. You then get to spend more time in this magical time, instead of rushing back and forth. Do the local trek, have a couple of nice meals accompanied by live music. Sleep in, enjoy the views at different times of day, with different light, which makes a difference. And be back in salta day 2 in the evening.

The tour was great! tour guides were knowledgeable and they gave us enough time during stops to enjoy the landscapes 😊 they also took pics for us. I recommend Tiamar for tours! I minus one star because they switched the day itinerary and didn’t let us know in advance

Very informative tours. Friendly bus driver guides, Great landscapes. unfortunately the driving was risky. With this company, the tour guide and bus driver are one and the same person to save costs. Apparently they have to complete the tours in far too short a time. This means that the bus driver tour guides become fast drivers here. On this "first tour to Jujui" cars were often heroically overtaken. In the mountains, serpentines are approached quickly without first reducing the speed. At times my wife and I felt quite uncomfortable during the journey.

Day1 was great and the guide was informing and good at English. Day2 the guide spoke bad English & we had to pay 15000 extra

Beautiful landscapes! It was very windy in July, so you should dress warmly. Maybe the enjoyment is priceless, you have to be encouraged.

You have to know that the tour is actually two day tours, so the planning was a disaster. Our guide on the first day didn't know that our tour was two days and had to clarify that first. We also did the tour the wrong way round and didn't get to Purmamarca until 6pm on the first day and didn't have enough time to see everything there. We then stayed far too long on the second day. Our guides on both days were great, and it's only because of them that we get 3 stars. Otherwise, the organization of the tour for 2 days was just a disaster

A long day but well worth it as the Salinas Grandes is unbelievable and the journey to and from Salta is amazing with all the beautiful scenery and the winding route through the hills. The town of Purmamarca is a nice market town full of bargains and delicious food, so overall a brilliant day and I would highly recommend it.
