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.

Nos gustó
Estuvo bueno, con altibajos. Comparé precios antes de reservar y esta era la opción más conveniente. El guía se apoyaba bastante en un guion, pero explicaba bien. Faltó un baño disponible en una parte del recorrido. Lo recomendaría igual.

De lo mejor que hicimos en el viaje. Todo fluyó sin demoras ni esperas largas. Terminamos con una idea clara de cómo está armada la ciudad. Ojalá todos los tours fueran así.
Delfina M.
Contentos con la experiencia, aunque no todo fue perfecto. El guía sabía mucho, aunque a veces costaba escucharlo con el ruido de la calle. Salió todo en horario, sin sobresaltos. Faltaba un mapa impreso, todo dependía del celular.

Super recomendo
Reservamos meio sem expectativa e acabou sendo o melhor dia da viagem. Aprendemos mais sobre a cidade em algumas horas do que lendo três guias. Nosso guia conduziu o grupo impecavelmente, ninguém ficou para trás. Se estiverem em San Fernando del Valle de Catamarca, não percam.

Nada que reprochar, todo salió como estaba planteado. Recomiendo hacerlo temprano, hay menos gente y mejor luz. Para lo que incluye, el precio es más que razonable. No lo dudes, reservalo.

Imperdible
No podría haber salido mejor. La explicación en Paisajes nos dejó pensando. Se ve que el guía elige bien qué contar, nunca se hizo pesado. Cuna del Poncho' quedó en todas nuestras fotos. Terminamos con una idea clara de cómo está armada la ciudad. Lo recomiendo sin dudar.
