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 (!) 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.

A wide ranging private, tailor-made tour of the best landscape and culture the far north of Argentina has to offer. We’ll explore the multi-colored Quebrada de Humahuaca, famous for its Seven Colored Hill and rich in history from Pre-Inca to colonial times. The intrepid among you may also want to brave the high altitude 14 Coloured Hill of Hornocal, at 4,440m above sea level. We will stroll around the historic town of Humahuaca, much more indigenous in feel than cosmopolitan Salta, and also visit Jujuy's capital city, San Salvador. Then we’ll cross the outer mountain range of the Andes into the Altiplano and the wide open plains of the Salinas Grandes salt flats, with their stunning view of the mountains.

We took this tour with Rodrigo guiding us in late February just before the coronavirus shut down travel. Having the personal attention of a private tour was great and Rodrigo quickly gauged our interests and modified the tour to meet our interests as we went. We were fortunate being in the region during Carnivale celebrations and to be able to experience the thrill and chaos of the occasion. There were many highlights of an action packed few days but the Hornocal, Salinas Grandes and San Salvador de Jujuy stand out. Rodrigo’s knowledge of the history and culture and personal contacts were excellent and really added to our enjoyment. We can highly recommend this trip and Poncho Tours service from the booking process, airport pickup and arrangements generally were exemplary.

The tour was very good. The mountains and Salinas Grandes were amazing. The driving and explanations were very good. However, we encountered some issues with that company. On the booking, they requested that we confirm the tour, so we sent a message through TripAdvisor 3 days before the tour. As we didn't get any reply, the day before the tour, in the morning, we went to their office in Salta. There, we learned that the part of the tour to San Antonio de los Cobres was cancelled because of some problem with the road. They never sent us any previous notice about that. The agent finally agreed to compensate us by giving a discount on a second tour to Cafayate that we booked with them, which was also interesting. By the way, the price of the tour on TripAdvisor is about twice as the average price for that tour offered by many agencies in the center of Salta. Finally, we received a reply to our request through TripAdvisor in the late afternoon of that day. That reply didn't mention that the visit to San Antonio would be omitted and stressed that we should be ready by 7:00 AM the next morning to be picked up. That morning, the minivan came very late, at about 8:00 AM. So the whole tour was delayed and we returned after 9:00 PM. Considering what happened, I asked the company to give us a more precise pick-up time for the second tour on the next day, which they did. They gave us a 20 minutes interval and for the second tour the pick-up was exactly in the specified period.

In December 2019 my wife and I, along with two friends, were treated to an an amazing three day trip around northern Salta Province followed by a more extended six day trip to the south of the province. I say treated because we were in the extraordinarily capable hands of Five Senses Salta. We were taken to a number of fascinating villages where we shopped and dined and also listened to some wonderful ethnic music. We traversed some of the most amazing and varied landscapes - multi coloured rocky valleys, vast open desert plains of cactus and blasted twisted rock formations, ancient native settlements, lush vineyards and river valleys and at one point a seemingly endless salt plain. The hotels we stayed in were top class - a delight to arrive at and we were always sad to leave - but the road beckoned. We travelled in two separate cars which were very comfortable. Given the often demanding road conditions, our drivers were more than up to the task and as guides were full of interesting and relevant information. The trip was part of a more extended visit to South America, including Lima and Machu Picchu in Peru. This part of the trip was also organised via Five Senses contacts based in Lima. We definitely enjoyed the trip of a lifetime with Five Senses. It was easy to communicate with Gareth and his team, who always responded quickly to any questions and tailored the trip to meet our needs in every respect. Airport and hotel pick ups were efficient, cars and drivers of the highest quality and rest days built in to our itinerary. Can’t recommend Salta Province and Five Senses highly enough. Thanks to all.
