Between 10:15 am and 10:30 am on the day of the tour, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Purmamarca and depart towards the Quebrada de Humahuaca. We will stop at Maimará, a village near the Paleta del Pintor, a notable rock formation.

Next, we will travel to Uquía, where you will have free time to explore. Be sure to visit the Church of San Francisco de Paula to see the "Ángeles arcabuceros" paintings.
