Hola buenas noches… todo muy bien, lo único es que fuimos con nuestro auto y no tomamos el Transfer a volcán, porque era más cómodo, pero muy bien todo
Muchas gracias….
Hola. Fue excelente, superó nuestras expectativas, y la atención q nos brindaron fue genial. Gracias por la paciencia. Y la gentileza
The Solar Train is a unique experience in the Quebrada, with a European-style train. The seats are new, everything is impeccably clean and well-maintained. The journey covers 42 km, from Tilcara to Volcán. In our case, we organized the trip visiting Purmamarca, Tilcara, then Maimará, and finally Tumbaya, before returning to Purmamarca. One of the great advantages is that you can get on and off the train as many times as you want during the day. Some stations have a café (like in Tumbaya), but not all of them. You can plan your visit to each station according to the train schedule. In Tilcara, we went to the Devil’s Throat (although a taxi is needed from the train). In Maimará, we marveled at the Painter’s Palette. All stations are close to the town center, except for Purmamarca, which is 3 km away and requires a taxi. The cost is 45 USD, with discounts for retirees.
Tome el servicio en San Salvador de Jujuy. Nos buscaron en una combi y nos trasladaron hasta la estacion Volcan. Ahi subimos al tren y fuimos bajando en cada estacion. Fue una experiencia muy buena
Tren Nuevo ! Con un guía que explica. Paisajes increíbles de la quebrada!!
Excelente experiencia en el tren solar, muy disfrutable! Uno de los guías Hernán un genio, brindó muchísima información con dedicación y gran conocimiento de la quebrada de humhuaca.
El Tren Solar es una experiencia única en la Quebrada, con un tren de estilo europeo. Los asientos son nuevos, todo está impecablemente limpio y bien cuidado. El recorrido abarca 42 km, desde Tilcara hasta Volcán. En nuestro caso, organizamos el viaje visitando Purmamarca, Tilcara, luego Maimará y finalmente Tumbaya, antes de regresar a Purmamarca. Una de las grandes ventajas es que puedes subir y bajar del tren tantas veces como desees durante el día. Algunas estaciones cuentan con cafetería (como en Tumbaya), pero no en todas. Puedes planificar tu visita a cada estación según los horarios del tren. En Tilcara, fuimos a la Garganta del Diablo (aunque es necesario tomar un remis desde el tren). En Maimará, nos maravillamos con la Paleta del Pintor. Todas las estaciones están cerca del centro de los pueblos, excepto Purmamarca, que está a 3 km y se necesita un remis para llegar. El costo es de 45 USD, con descuentos para jubilados.
