DESAFIO

  Top Notch Tours! - This review is overdue, and I don’t know where to begin. Ama absolutely made our trip to Salta an unforgettable experience. Initially, we had booked just a private... read more day trip from Salta to the Salinas Grandes. From the very first email, I could tell that they were top notch professionals in guiding travelers through the region. We added on a two-day trip to Cafeyate based on this experience, and without a doubt it was the right call. Ama is such a charming and knowledgeable guide. She has a great sense of humor and kept even the longer drives fun and interesting. She also definitely showed us areas, views and small hikes that I don’t think we would have been able to discover on our own. Ama focused on every little detail and created such a personal experience - we were sad to say goodbye on our last day!

I cannot recommend Andes Challenge more!

  I'd give it 6 stars! - We, my husband an I, did a private tour of 7 days with Facundo Zambrano to explore the Salta region, driving almost 2200 km. 138 reviews and all excellent (!)... read more and this review is going to add to that
Traveling with Facundo has been a real pleasure. The nature with all its different landscapes, the remoteness, silence and absence of people are overwhelming and a unique, out of this world, experience. Facundo is all that you may hope for when you decide to travel for 7 days in a car with someone you don't know. He is a real pro, very passionate and knowledgeable about the region and the native people, a storyteller, a musician, wine lover, father and husband. And most importantly, he is just a very nice and pleasant guy to be with. The Salta region has touched our souls and it has spoiled s for ever.

  Facundo was the best tour guide we have ever had and we have traveled extensively over many years. We recently came back from a 6 day round trip leaving Salta... read more and traveling through the rain forest and up to the northern Quebrada Humahuaca, thru La Puna desert and the Abreda del Acay ( yikes!), with final stops in Cachi and Cafayate, before meandering back to Salta through the Quebrada Concha. He is extremely knowledgeable of the local terrain, always considerate of the Native people of the region, and very kind and entertaining as well. As an added bonus he has a special interest in geology and has worked with international renowned Canadian geologists studying the Andes formations and he also has a keen interest in the wine making of the region. We had a general plan for the tour but he built in flexibility and we stopped for an impromptu bike ride in the Los Cardonas National Park (one of the highlights) and a short hike following the river bed around Cafayate( note to self: remember short is a relative term especially when used by a young fit adventurer type like Facundo). Above all we felt safe at all times with Facundo’s driving and appreciated his excellent recommendations for lodgings, extra activities and dining. Two weeks later we are still reminiscing about the wonderful time we had in the Northwest of Argentina and hope to return for another Facundo adventure soon.
