A walk through a reddish ravine offers beautiful postcards of the foothills, a prelude to Cafayate, the heart of the Calchaquí Valley where the sun shines and the best wine awaits. Cafayate, the land of the sun and wine, is located in the Calchaquí Valley, 180 km from Salta's capital, along one of Northern Argentina's most renowned routes.
Departing from Salta, you'll tour the Lerma Valley before entering the Quebrada de las Conchas Natural Reserve. A 90 km road takes you through a narrow valley surrounded by colorful hills, dominated by orange and red. You'll encounter natural geoforms like La Garganta del Diablo, El Amphitheater, Las Ventanas, Los Castillos, La Yesera, and El Sapo.
In Cafayate, visit a winery for tastings of the best local wines. Though Torrontés is renowned, the region also boasts many hectares of red grapes such as Malbec, Tannat, and Cabernet Sauvignon. After lunch (not included), return to Salta by the same route.

Description said the tour was in English, it wasn’t. Guide spoke next to no English. We got lucky on the winery tour as they had an English speaker in the sales team who gave us a private tour. Nevertheless the wine tour itself was way too short, was only about 30 minutes.
We stopped at some tacky gift shop (compulsory stop) for longer than the time we spent at the vineyard. The time for lunch before returning was two hours which was way too long and pointless.
Some of the landscapes were interesting but overall it was a very long waste of a day.

Al verdad no fue una experiencia Buena 1 sola bodega y 10 minutos desordenados no avisan punto de encuentro todo esta pactado para venderte cosas, avise que me bajaba cerca del aeropuerto y casi pierdo el vuelo por que el chofer no me queria dejar bajar.
