Description
We continue through the charming Villa Mazán and the city of Aimogasta, renowned for its centuries-old walnut and olive groves, before joining a section of the legendary National Route 40, always flanked by vineyards and mountain landscapes.
One of the most exciting moments of the trip is a visit to the El Shincal Archaeological Site in Quimivil, the ancient capital of the Inca empire in the region. There, amidst ceremonial sites and the remains of its grand central plaza, the past comes alive, revealing the grandeur of an ancient civilization.
The tour continues to London, the second oldest city in Argentina, which preserves the charm of its colonial history, and culminates in Belén, the warm "Birthplace of the Poncho." In this picturesque city, you can discover the art of the Arañitas Hilanderas (Spinning Spiders), women who keep alive a unique weaving tradition in the country, a symbol of Catamarcan identity and pride.

Mejor de lo que esperaba
Lo elegimos por las fotos y resultó incluso mejor en persona. Nos tocó un guía excelente, con mucha data y buen humor. Es una forma muy práctica de ubicarte en la ciudad el primer día. Cinco estrellas bien merecidas.

Faria de novo sem pensar duas vezes. Comparei preços antes de reservar e essa era a melhor opção. Nunca teríamos chegado a Berço do Poncho por conta própria. Contrataríamos de novo.

Se pasó volando y nos quedamos con ganas de más. La explicación en Arañitas Hilanderas nos dejó pensando. El guía nos dio recomendaciones de dónde comer que resultaron buenísimas.
Valeria G.
Excelente experiencia de principio a fin. Lo de Shincal de Quimivil fue el momento del día. Paisajes quedó en todas nuestras fotos. El guía contaba historias que no están en ninguna guía de viaje. Que venga con guía de turismo en Español hace toda la diferencia.

Realmente valió cada peso. Volvimos a Colorados al día siguiente por nuestra cuenta. El guía manejaba los dos idiomas del grupo sin problema. Si están por San Fernando del Valle de Catamarca, no se lo pierdan.
