Argentina's Northwest - Things to do in Salta, Cafayate & Purmamarca
I traveled to the Northwest of Argentina to explore the colorful valleys, taste the wine and to show you the best things to do in Salta, Cafayate and Purmamarca

The stunning regions of Salta and Jujuy are not as popular outside of Argentina but offer so much to see and do. I've heard of the Valles Calchaquiés and the Hill of the seven colors before but I was overwhelmed seeing it myself.
Starting in Cafayate I take you on a journey to both regions and introduce you to the wineries of Cafayate where the Torrontés is produced, I explore the Quebrada de las Conchas with its rock formations, I visit the Hill of Seven colors in Purmamarca at the Quebrada de Humahuaca and I show you around in one of the most beautiful cities of Argentina: Salta.

Again I was able to fly the drone to give you a scale of these impressive landscapes and I got some really nice aerial footage of the red Canyons as well as the vineyards and Cafayate.
Beside all those sights in Salta & Jujuy I recommend you to try the local food. The empanadas, the locro, the humitas and tamales are the most typical food and so delicious!

ARGENTINA: EXPLORING SALTA AND JUJUY TRIP AND ITINERARY
SALTA || JUJUY || SAN ANTONIO DE CABRAL || SALINAS GRANDE || PURMAMARCA || SEVEN COLOURS HILL
Salta!!
What a great city... one of our favourites. A smaller city than Buenos Aires, Salta is picturesque with it's architecture, and is known for it's empanadas and beer. There's even a beer simply called Salta!
The locals in Salta are friendly and didn't mind that we can't speak Spanish. We explored the city and booked a two day tour around Jujuy- going around Purmamarca and Humahuaca.
Some highlights include the Salinas Grande salt flat, and the colourful markets with local artisanos in Purmamarca.
We traveled up to 4000+ meters above sea level and took in the beautiful desert view.
Argentina is a big country with lots to offer, and Salta is an absolute must! If you are travelling to Argentina, we would recommend checking out its Northern part 10/10!
Watch our next vlog as we continue north, and explore the multicolored mountain range in Jujuy (Hill of Seven Colors, Maimara, and el Hornocal):
Don't hesitate to give us a shout if you have any questions about travelling in Argentina.

L'Argentina del nord, nella provincia di Salta è un'area spettacolare. Paesaggi mozzafiato tra altopiani, montagne, grotte e deserti di sali. Da non perdere sono poi i villaggi di Humahuaca e Purmamarca.
Un grazie particolare va al Ministerio del turismo y cultura di Salta che mi ha permesso di godere di questi incredibili paesaggi.
