Join us on our day trip to Humahuaca and Iruya and explore Tilcara's surroundings. You'll travel back in time through Argentina's colonial past as you stroll through the towns' cobbled streets.
Humahuaca & Iruya Day Trip
Having picked you up from your hotel in Tilcara between 8:30 and 9 am, we'll head to the town of Humahuaca. Our minibus journey will take around 2 hours 30 minutes.
When we arrive, we'll stretch our legs a bit by exploring the centre of the town and admiring its beautiful adobe houses. Did you know that this town was a key trading centre during the colonial period? We'll discuss how residents long ago would harvest their own food in terraced fields and make the most of the water that flowed down the slopes of the mountains.
Afterwards, we'll get back on the minibus and drive to Iruya. In Iruya, we'll take a guided tour of the town so we can learn more about its history and most symbolic places.
Next, we'll see the church, stroll down the cobbled streets and head to the central square. In addition, we'll go to a viewpoint from which we'll be able to see the unique location of this town. You'll be able to take incredible photos of the town, which looks as if it were hanging from the mountains.
You'll then have 1 hour free to eat some lunch before we drop you off at your hotel in Tilcara between 5:30 and 6 pm.
