Highly recommend - After a bit of a miscommunication when booking I found the tour to be my favourite while in salta. Both for the content (views) and professionally managed (great guide and tour operator was very good to help me with something I left on the bus). Highly recommend.

Very good - I loved knowing the large salt flats, a salty paradise, cute for taking photos, and it is part of the Purmamarca landscape and its famous mountain of 7 colors. Not to be missed in the northern holidays

beautiful salinas and purmamarca - I was lucky enough to meet some guys on my trip to Salta who were going on this excursion, and I joined their group... I loved the salt flats, it is a salt desert, incredible. The landscapes that can be seen there and along the way are spectacular. I also really liked purmamarca. This place is worth knowing. Thanks to the agency for the good attention they gave me, I felt safe the entire trip. And thanks also for the walks in Mendoza!

Manipulator - disrespectful customer services - For those who are interested in the word "trekking", please do not sign up. Because this did not happen. The tour itself was well conducted by a kind and knowledgeable guide. Very well organized throughout the day. The day for me went smoothly and was pleasant until I realized my itinerary was different from other participants. No one out of 15 participants was signed up for trekking. I asked my tour guide and he did not even recognize I signed up for something different, and advised me to make a claim to the original tour company I purchased the ticket for. I explained what happened: no trekking after all and realized I paid triple the cost of what other participants paid. I whatssup'ed them but they told me they refunded 20 USD. I asked why it happened (coz I really don't care about the money but more end to end experience). However the answer I got was utterly disappointing and unprofessional - "We understand and apologize! We will also issue a partial refund. We hope that next time you will be more satisfied with our services" Put the blame on the operator who did a fantastic job and did not know what I signed up for. I don't blame what happened, but I am extremely disappointed with how they handled it afterward. Please do not sign up for this company. Period.
