- Quebrada de Humahuaca - In 2003, UNESCO recognized the Quebrada de Humahuaca as a World Heritage Cultural Landscape.
This tour begins in Salta and travels through Jujuy Province, offering an opportunity to explore the charming countryside and villages that boast nearly 10,000 years of history. From south to north, the Quebrada de Humahuaca starts in Volcano, where the mountains dramatically transition from lush green hills to earthy brown tones.
Following the Rio Grande, the tour passes above the town of Tumbaya, home to a beautiful church built in 1796.
- Purmamarca - Next is Purmamarca, a town rich in legends and music, featuring a church dedicated to Santa Rosa de Lima, dating back to 1648. The village is nestled at the base of the renowned “Hill of Seven Colors.”
The journey continues to Tilcara, where the Pucara, an ancient Indian fortress now restored, showcases the grandeur of its original inhabitants, the Tilcara. Further north, after passing through Huacalera and the Tropic of Capricorn, the tour reaches Uquía, where the church houses one of the most significant collections of the famous “Angels Arcabuceros,” iconic examples of Cuzco painting.
The city of Humahuaca, the heart of the Gorge, welcomes visitors with its natural beauty, rich history, and vibrant culture. Notable attractions include the Monument to the Heroes of Independence and the articulated image of San Francisco Solano, which appears every afternoon in the central square to bless the people.
The tour concludes in Salta.
