“Eduardo was an amazing guide! He was so passionate and shared a lot about the history and geography of Quebrada de las Conchas and Cafayate. He was also really great with providing the tour in Spanish and English. I feel like a lot of tour guides leave out information when they translate in English and this wasn't the case with Eduardo. The energy was great and the views were amazing. This was my favourite out of all the tours I did from Salta.”
