    DO NOT BOOK! This travel agency is stealing your hard-earned money and time! I found out the hard way, after taking their tour and speaking with several other passengers, that this travel agency is charging nearly 4X what this tour costs. What’s more, is that they’re doing this with all of their tours! Save your money and time and book directly with the travel company they use, Nordic Travel Argentina. A quick google search with their name will reveal their company and they’re charging a mere $37,000pesos/$37USD to do this tour and MANY MORE! Nordic Travel did a great job for the tour, only after this vendor blindsided us and swindled us outside of Viator’s platform, and used WhatsApp to tell us that they had to cancel our initial Salinas Grande tour and then conned us into buying a cheaper tour at a HIGHER cost! Book direct with Nordic Travel and save the hassle and hardship of having to deal with this middleman and paying over 4 TIMES the cost of what this tour is really worth. Plus, you will directly support the local company that actually runs this tour by booking through them directly! :)

    My friend, I am sorry for your bad experience, but we offered you a 100% quality service. I would also like to tell you that our receptive is a wholesale operator, it does not sell to tourists. We are not to blame that you just booked when the Salinas were closed, it was bad luck. And it is like everything, you can buy cheap and the tour is bad, or pay for quality, and have our service. There are people who appreciate it, and others who don't, like you!

    We enjoyed the tour, and...

    We enjoyed the tour, and the guide had good English and knowledge of the area. We did have a small mishap as one of the individuals joining the tour missed the bus in the morning. We were told we'd wait five minutes (on the side of the highway) for them to arrive by cab. We probably waited closer to 20 minutes and had another delay at a police checkpoint. Overall the tour was good, but I would have preferred not lose about 30 minutes between the missing tourist and the police checkpoint. These are already long days to go and return, and you don't want to waste more time sitting in a bus. If it weren't for the delays, this tour would have been excellent.
