Adventure in Tucumán

After rafting in Salta, this was the excursion that we liked the most! From the varied vegetation to beautiful waterfalls, each stop left us amazed by the diversity and grandeur of nature in this province. We will be back!

SCAMMERS, DON'T TRUST THEM

Unfortunately, with Tripadvisor’s consent they rip off travelers, fail to deliver on what they promote, and fail to take care of their mistakes.

Excursion to Tungas

The tour was very interesting and well accompanied by the guide, who took us on the tour with a vehicle. We just missed the Yungas hike that we really wanted to do. There were museums that were closed because it was Monday.

Excellent option to take advantage of the afternoon

If you have an appointment scheduled, discard it and take this half-day tour which is very good. You go through the yungas up the mountain where the oldest families of Tucumán live... places with a lot of history. The guides are usually older men with very good level of information, English little and nothing. It's worth doing.
