The perfect tour to get some insight from a local. Jan is a great guide and photographer. He takes as many picptures as you wish and also gives useful tips for museums and restaurants. Definitely worth the money. We recommend to do this tour as soon as you get to Salta as it’s super helpful to organize the rest of your stay if you want to go back to some of the recommended places.
