Ruta 68 is astonishing, but not well organized this 2-day trip on the whole

MarcoT, Aug 2025
Outstanding road from Salta to Cafayate, the Ruta 68 is worth the entire trip to Salta. The guide of the first day trip was very nice, but the organization of this 2-days trip not too good: it wasn’t clear the day 1 we would have been brought to Cafayate by lunch (we supposed by evening instead), and we had to ask several times about the pick-up of the next day (to come back to Salta). And basically the second day “trip” is only a return to Salta.

A fantastic trip

Wow! A fantastic trip especially the journey through La Quebrada de las Conchas, a spectacular landscape! The guide was brilliant and so knowledgeable. The wine tasting and tour was a little brief but we thoroughly enjoyed the trip.

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!

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.

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

The vehicle accommodation could be better.

Marcia_G, Aug 2025
We were very poorly accommodated in a small van with 19 passengers and no room. The guide was sympathetic and helpful. But I spoke too fast, We stayed two days in cafayate high point of the city is wine museum. The return was scheduled for 1h and 30 minutes before the schedule. Again the vehicle was very tight, on the turn the guide did not interact.

Cafayate lindo!

Foi muito bom ir de excursão até Cafayate para podermos ir nas bodegas e todo mundo experimentar, já que não estávamos dirigindo! Recomendo muito pegar a excursão de dois dias, já que a partir das 15h do primeiro dia você fica livre para fazer o que quiser. Nos pontos que visitamos com a empresa, tínhamos sempre cerca de 15 minutos para apreciar a vista e tirar fotos, muito rápido!

Nos han engañado! Evitar por todos los medios!

Es un viaje con estancia de una noche en Cafayate con traslados a los hoteles.Desde el primer momento informé que pernoctariamos en Piatelli Wine resort. Es un hotel icono de la zona. Cuando llegamos a Cafayate preguntamos a Tiamar agencia receptivo la hora de recogida al día siguiente. Nos contestaron que nos nos recogían que estaba lejos. Qué fuéramos a Cafayate a las 13:00 sin especificar dirección alguna. Contacté con Viator e intenté contactar con Tiamar y no contestaron. Imagínense no vienen a recogernos y no nos dicen dónde ir. Por la noche al tener un vuelo temprano al día siguiente decidimos comprar billetes de bus para ir a Salta y por supuesto solicitar el reembolso. Solo entonces con los billetes ya comprados nos dicen que nos venían buscar al hotel. Obviamente, les hemos dicho que no. El problema es que estábamos en un hotel maravilloso con actividades de catas de vinos y otras actividades y no pude disfrutarlas por estar pendiente de un estúpido transfer.
