In 2003, the Quebrada de Humahuaca was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in the Cultural Landscape category. This excursion will take us from Salta through the province of Jujuy to tour and visit its charming landscapes and towns and travel through almost 10,000 years of history. From south to north, the Quebrada de Humahuaca rises in Volcán, where the mountains abruptly abandon the green and give way to ocher and brown mountain ranges. Without leaving the outline of the Río Grande, you arrive at the town of Tumbaya, which shelters its beautiful church built in 1796. When you turn off National Route 52, you enter Purmamarca, a town of legends and singers, which has a church dedicated to Santa Rosa de Lima dating from the year 1648. The town of Purmamarca has been built at the foot of the internationally known “Cerro de Siete Colores”.

The tour continues through Tilcara. To the north, after passing through Huacalera and the Tropic of Capricorn, you reach Uquía, which houses one of the most important collections of the famous "Angeles Arcabuceros" in its Church, emblematic examples of Cuzco painting. The city of Humahuaca, the very heart of the Quebrada, awaits the visitor full of natural, historical and cultural attractions. Among the latter, the Monument to the Heroes of Independence and the articulated image of San Francisco Solano stand out, which every noon makes its appearance in the central square to bless the town. The tour ends in Salta.
