Welcome to Salta! Join me to discover the vibrant landscapes, rich flavors, and colorful traditions of Argentina's northwest. I feel like I know you already - because just like you, I am always seeking new experiences, sensations, and challenges. I'm a traveler at heart! Throughout my career, I have worked in different areas of the tourism industry, including restaurants, hotels, travel agencies, cruise lines, and I've been a private guide for over 15 years now. I had the opportunity to work in various countries, such as Brazil, Mexico, Spain, the United States, and Chile, developing a global vision of the business and a great empathy for all its components. During my journey, I received extensive training, and after gaining years of experience, I followed my Heart back to the North and embraced my identity, of which I am very proud. Salta is known as "La Linda" (the beautiful) for a reason - it has everything and more! Offers an array of natural wonders perfect for adventurous travelers who want to discover the region. My tours move at a leisurely pace, prioritizing my guests' enjoyment and harmony with nature. My passion for photography has helped me develop my greatest gift - patience - and as a future environmental administrator, my deepest purpose is nature conservation. Custom tours are always available to fit your needs! "Come on, join me, let’s explore Salta together!" Certified Tourist Guide registered in Salta Ministery of Tourism Professional driver's license WFR - Wilderness First Responder Chef the Cuisine Degree Tourism & Hotel Management Degree Current 2nd year in Environmental Management In my tours I have no restrictions.

Overview of your Salta tour

Quebrada de Humahuaca, declared Cultural and Natural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO in 2003 is located in Jujuy province. It is a narrow and arid mountainous valley, flanked by the high plateau of the Puna and the eastern wooded areas. It is located in the north-westernmost portion of Argentina along the spectacular valley of the Rio Grande. Drive up to Salinas Grandes climbing from 2200 metres to 4170 metres on the Cuesta de Lipan. From the high pass we descend to the salt flats located in the high Andean plateau called Puna or Altiplano. In Salinas Grandes we can learn about local communities mining salt by hand. A long day of many kilometers traveled full of colors, flavors, and tradition. Remember that all my tours can be customized according to your request.
