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.”

“Our guide/driver Luis was very nice, was full of information and was continuously sharing it, but his English was not quite up to our expectation, and the tour was not as expected or described. We were spoiled the day before, having had a guide with excellent English. At the 09:00 pickup, we were told we would stop for the wine tasting in about an hour, on the way to Valparaiso. I mention that 10:00 seemed a bit early for a wine tasting, and asked if we could do it on the way back from Valparaiso. When told it would complicate the schedule if we changed it, I said to proceed…”
