2.3 Days 3 Full Excursions Pack

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 73 reviews · 3 days (approx.) · from $150

Review of Salta’s 3-day excursion package, covering Cafayate, Humahuaca, Purmamarca, and Salinas Grandes with practical tips.

“From the 3 days I love Cafayate the most. Unfortunately the places are far from Salta so the tours are way too long but the guides made it enjoyable. I would recommend my friends to skip Salinas Grandes, as the tour the place is nothing compared to the Salina in Uyuni. It is basically to take the picture in the pool and you need to do it in a hurry which I hated. Then, my purpose to go to Pumamarca was to visit the Quebrada of Humahuaca however that is not part of “excursion to all activities in the place”. they do not tell you in advance that you need…”

3.Cafayate, Humahuaca & Salinas Grandes 3-Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 41 reviews · from $106

Three days from Salta to Cafayate, Humahuaca, and Salinas Grandes, with red-rock valleys, Andean villages, salt flats, and local wine.

“We did 3 trips, so it was a lot of time in the van. The second two were in the same direction so there was some repetition, which we knew. We didn't realise however that there was an optional tour to the 14 colour hill as noone from the agency had mentioned it, despite us going in every day. This was a little disappointing. All the guides were good, but we loved Monica”

4.3-Day Iguazu Falls Exploring Tour From Argentina and Brazil

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 23 reviews · 3 days (approx.) · from $329

Explore both sides of Iguazu Falls in three days with hotel stays, shared transfers, bilingual guides, park walks, and optional boat rides.

“Fantastic 2 days in Iguazu and our guide Diego was outstanding. Did not do the boat trip because of the number of steps, but everything else was excellent. Trip to Brazilian side well worth doing, apart from border delays, as it gives a different aspect to the falls. Hotel lodge in rain forest was also very good and all the transport pick ups worked well.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 21 reviews · 3 days · from $550

See Iguazu Falls from Argentina and Brazil on a three-day tour from Buenos Aires with flights, guides, hotel, park fees, and transfers.

“Explaining better when it is best to arrive. We took the early plane from Buenos Aires and were met promptly at the airport and transported to our accomodation which at 10 am had nothing prepared for us. We were expecting our tour to begin, but had to sit around the lobby until almost two. We could have easily booked a later flight. Had a lovely tour of the Brazilian side and a full day tour the next day of the Argentinian side. Next morning had a mid-morning flight back to Buenos Aires. Amazing tour. Take the optional boat ride worth the price, but expect to get wet.”

Ride through Mendoza’s remote Andes, camp under stars, cook over fire, and enjoy a private three-day gaucho adventure.

“I reached out to the operator to confirm my dates would work before booking 2 months in advance. About a week before my trip the operator asked if I could change the dates. I was unfortunately not able to and then a day or two before my booking it was canceled by the operator. I received a refund no problem, but was disappointed as this trip was the reason I booked tickets to Mendoza from Buenos Aires. Operator did suggest another contact I could reach out to in order to book a different horseback riding experience, but I sought out another company on my own. I did pass by Rancho…”
