Magical and unforgettable experience! - Ximena is a total genius, super informative and friendly. Very loving Mario driver and excellent driver. It was an unforgettable tour that definitely made our experience something magical. They were very punctual and the activities were fully implemented. The excellent vehicle. We cannot be happier that we chose La Quebrada Turismo!

Tour genial - It was very interesting and impressive. The guide was nice and had foreseen all the necessary things like coca leaves. Clear explanations, cute trip, all excellent! It would only be a little time (~+30mins) to Pumamarca to take advantage of more, but in one day you have to choose 😆

Great day at Salinas Grandes and Purmamarca - Rafael was an excellent and entertaining guide who spoke great English meaning we felt we had the same experience as the Spanish speakers on the bus. It’s a long way to Salinas Grandes and it was a long day but the scenery is breathtaking and totally worth the journey. There were some issues with the bus, (hence the four stars) but we managed to see everything as planned and really enjoyed the day.

Beautiful places but little information - What was good?: Beautiful places we have visited. We were picked up from our Airbnb. Friendly tour guide. Picked up on time and returned on time. What could be better? The bus was not pleasant. You couldn't sit normally because the suspension wasn't right. You felt every bump. The information of the guide in English was very basic.

Really long day and not a great experience. - From rackety old van with no seats belts to a guide that spoke very little (and bad) English - this is a tour company to avoid. This was sold as an English speaking tour which it definitely wasn’t. Over 13 hours - avoid. I’m sure there is better out there!

Choose another provider - Terrible experience with poor transportation: no seat belts, cracked taped up window, stained seats and deficient suspension system. This tour is sold as an English tour - it isn’t - it’s a Spanish tour with a guide that has very limited English (by his own admission) who “translated” the important part in impossible to understand language. We paid the same price as the Spanish speaking guests on this tour yet received a much inferior service. It is a 13 hours day - made way to long by a 2 hour stop (read 2 hour shopping stop around the small central square). 1 hour would have been enough. Would absolutely not recommend this tour company.

Bus ride with little useful commentary - Sounded like a good way to visit Salinas Grandes and Purmurmaca, but ended up being little more than a coach trip rather than a guided tour. Our guide provided very little relevant information and it was difficult to understand what he was saying. There was no information given about the salt plains. The lunch buffet (not included in the price) was good at about $15 each. Note: entrance to Salinas Grandes is not included, and costs ARS 2000 (cash only). Probably cheaper than a taxi, but that's as good as it gets.
