Great trip, beautiful scenery - Fantastic trip and excellent guide. I am glad I stayed overnight in Cafayate to do some more winetasting. And it is a long trip for one day! Break it into two if you have the time!

Beautiful - By route 68 you can get to Cafayate in approximately 3 hours from Salta. It is worth stopping at all the attractions. Cafayate is a town that you will fall in love with, its tranquility is unbelievable. The gastronomy is very varied and not very expensive.

Spectacular Jump - This panorama is spectacular. Especially since there is not so much tourism. It is as if one were visiting an equivalent to arriving in Petra...but on the American continent and without so much tourism.

Totally worth every penny - Our guide Monica was amazing !!! If you’re lucky enough to get her she will make this trip a memorable one! She had us laughing in both Spanish and English and was very knowledgeable about the area. The trip itself is unreal. Amazing views and so much to see. I would recommend spending the night in Cafayate so you can break up the drive and also explore the beautiful wine town more. Loved this excursion !

Great overnight trip. - Cafayate itself was a really lovely town and the parque nacionale los cardones was spectacular. We stayed overnight and next morning took a trip to the Rio Colorado with a local diaguita guide which was very special

Thank you for helping us! - Booked a tour to Cafayate. Company was excellent to work with to organize the trip and allow us to stay two days in Cafayate before we would be picked up. Unfortunately due to the coronavirus and travel restrictions, we had to cancel! Tiamar was extremely quick to respond and refund us the entire us the entire amount. So greatly appreciated in these crazy times.....

Great option if you don't have a rental car or don't want to drive! - I took a chance on this tour without being able to find any English review about the tour and was happy I did. I originally had planned to hire a car at Salta airport to go to Cafayate the following day and stayed overnight there. Our flight is scheduled to arrive late, past the car agency's opening hours. We emailed the rental car agency to confirm our reservation but did not hear back from them for the longest time. We made contact with Tianmar as a back up plan. The email contact was not responded to promptly, but once I got a hold of their WhatsApp number, all correspondences were prompt and in perfect English. We proceeded to book (through Viator) a couple of days before the tour. Pick-up in Salta was within the scheduled window (7:00-7:40 AM). We travelled in a 18-20 people van, it was not full, so very comfortable. Despite us being the only 2 English speaking people on the tour, and the only ones that are staying over night, we were provided with excellent guidance, all our questions/concerns are addressed promptly. The tour was very decent with interesting stops along route 68. Of course you don't have complete freedom of where to stop, but I felt the stops were adequate. It also included one visit to a winery near town (Vasija Secreta). We got into Cafayate at around 2:00 PM when we left the day trip group. They were headed for lunch while we checked in to our hotel. We were free, on our own from then on until 3-3:30 PM the following day when they came back to pick us up and we travelled with a different day trip group back to Salta. We were again the only English speaking people on the van. They made a stop just for us because we did not get to see the Amphitheater the day before. The afternoon stop at the Amphitheater was brilliant; we practically had the place to ourselves. Thank you Tianmar Travel for meeting our expectation! A special shout out to Pablo (our guide on the first day) and the taller/funny guide/driver on the second day (April 21) whose name we did not catch.

Just book a full day tour not two day tour - The two day tour was actually half a day tour and transportations between salta and cafayate. The guide was great speaking English (but not winery and he did not translate it) . I missed to see one of the highlight of the tour because the fist bus stopped there on the way back to salta and the other bus on the following day already stopped at there on the way to cafayate, so I missed it:( I paid more than other tourists and got less. I recommend to book just a full day tour, so you won’t miss anything, OR book a full day tour and talk to the travel agency directly to accommodate your needs if you want to stay in cafayate.

Just book a full day tour - This is a two day tour, but actually a half day tour with a transportation between salta and cafayate. I missed the highlight of the site because the bus stopped at there on the way back to Salta and the other bus on the following day stopped on the way to cafayate. I paid more than other tourists but did not get anything more, even less. If you want to spend a night in cafayate, I recommend to book one day tour and talked to the travel agency directly to accommodate your needs. I’m upset not to be able to see “amphitheater”+ the bus picked me up earlier than schedule time, so I had to change my plan.
