Traveler reviews
Be sure to get coca...
Be sure to get coca leaves and flavored baking soda or coca candy to help with altitude sickness. It’s real! Personnel on train are marvelous, especially English guide Amelia. She was absolutely wonderful!
Waste of time
7 hours round trip, it was wasted time to see a desolate view from the train. The train in poor condition, the shabby panorama that the trip offers do not justify the 140€ cost per person + the cost to get to San Antonio de Los Cobres, of terrible squalor. A day and money wasted!!!
Enchanted world... nothing is as it seems....
Unforgettable!!!! An expanse of SALT so compact as to look like snow... but... attention we are about 4000 meters ago cold pulls wind and the head "turns......"
A disappointment
The price of the excursion is excessive. I have made other excursions with other agencies and they have been better and much more suitable in price. Vitor care was terrible, I had trouble going to the meeting point and was offered a taxi for 30 dollars, which I abused. I went for 8000 Argentine pesos!
Tren a las nubes
The organization of the bus ride to San Antonio de los Cobres as well as the train ride was excellent. We were able to experience an unforgettable adventure by train in the clouds.
