Quebrada de Humahuaca Tour

After picking you up at the scheduled time from your hotel or the meeting point at Avenida Dr. Joaquin Carrill in San Salvador de Jujuy, we'll board a bus and set off to explore the Quebrada de Humahuaca.

Firstly, we'll head to Purmamarca, a village located at the foot of the famous Hill of the Seven Colours, known for its striking multi-coloured rocks formed over 500 million years. This geological feature is a highlight of the tour.

Continuing to the village of Maimará, we'll see the "Paleta del Pintor" or "Painter's Palette", another impressive colourful mountain. Afterward, we’ll stop in the town of Uquía to view the paintings of the "Ángeles arcabuceros", angels depicted with arquebus firearms.

Before returning to San Salvador de Jujuy, we'll visit the city of Humahuaca, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where you will have one hour of free time to have lunch and explore. Afterwards, we will make our way back to the original departure point, completing the tour in a total of 9 hours.
