4* & 5* Salta Argentina Adventure Tour

Day 1 Arrival in Salta, Argentina & Hike the Lerme Valley
Arrive in Salta, Argentina, and transfer to San Lorenzo, a small town about 15 km from Salta. Check in to the 3* Hotel Posada Don Numas, and then head out on a hike through a nearby canyon, passing gorges and arroyos in the Lerme Valley. Salta is a remote city in northwestern Argentina, and after reaching this tucked-away region, the dramatic landscapes and brisk hike will be a refreshing welcome. After the hike, relax in the hotel or explore the town. Spend the rest of the day at your leisure.

Day 2 Train to the Clouds Ride
Wake early and go to the General Belgrano train station in Salta to board the famous Tren a las Nubes, the Train to the Clouds. This 15 hour round-trip train journey passes through 19 tunnels, 29 bridges, 13 viaducts, and winds through the Andes Mountains. The route was designed by an American engineer who used twists and turns in the route rather than a brake system. Along the way, enjoy beautiful views of the landscapes, Andean towns, and deep ravines. Return to Salta and transfer to your hotel at the end of the day. Breakfast & lunch are included aboard the train.

In the late afternoon, transfer back to your hotel in San Lorenzo.
