You'll start the tour by traveling to the clouds before visiting pre-Inca ruins, small villages, amazing salt plains and exploring the picturesque 7-color hill! With stunning beauty and fascinating ancient treasures, this tour in northern Argentina has something for the entire family!

The beautifully preserved colonial city of Salta is the perfect base from which to see the varied landscapes of the area. It is also the perfect location to take the magical 'Train to the Clouds,' which climbs in switchbacks and spirals to the Chilean frontier high in the Andes.
