Fabian_L, Oct 2022

Great place bad company.

Van broke down and we waited over 2 hours for a replacement. Company provided not real time of replacement arrival. Very bad communication. Would had like to spend more time in Purmamarca and no time in the others. Viator charged me in USD and Arg taxes applied 70% extra in taxes even though we paid deposit in ARS with ARS debit card. No response from company they washed their hands. Do not use Viator and look for local provider.

Excellent tour, with great English explanations from Martin, our tour guide. It was disappointing we didn't find out until on the bus that the archaeological site in Tilcara is closed on Mondays, so we didn't get to visit, but we still enjoyed our tour of the valley.
