TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PURCHASE In effect since November 2026. They apply to purchases made on our websites and to those agreed by WhatsApp or email and paid remotely. 1. WHO WE ARE Dexotic Viajes y Turismo is a local travel agency in Salta, Argentina.

WHAT WE SELL • Services we run ourselves, with our own guides and transport providers, such as the shared group tours to Cafayate, Cachi, Salinas Grandes and Humahuaca. • Services from other companies, such as the tourist trains or activities run by other operators. In those cases the page says "Operated by …", the operator provides the service and its cancellation policy applies, which we show you before you pay. 3. HOW TO BUY Choose the service, the date and the travelers, and add it to your cart; you can buy several services in one order. Enter your details, tell us which country you are paying from and choose a payment method. Before paying you see the final price, each service's cancellation policy and the date until which you can withdraw. When you accept these terms and pay, your booking is created and we send you the confirmation by email and WhatsApp. Payment deadlines: with Mercado Pago or PayPal, the order expires after 60 minutes; with a bank transfer, Wise or Prex, you have 24 hours to send us the receipt. Never after the booking cutoff of the first service. An expired order creates no obligation: you can place it again, at the prices of that moment. 4. CONFIRMATION • Services marked "Instant confirmation" are confirmed as soon as the payment goes through, and you get the voucher right away. • For the rest, your booking is registered when you pay and we confirm it with the provider during business hours. The time it takes is shown on the page. • For trains, the ticket is issued by the operator: confirmation depends on seats being available on the chosen date. • If the provider has no availability, we offer you another date, another activity or a 100% refund of what you paid. You choose. 5. PRICES • Prices are in Argentine pesos and include VAT. Below each price you see the amount without national taxes. • The list price is the card price. Paying by bank transfer from an Argentine bank account gives you a promotional discount, shown before you pay. • With Argentine cards, through Mercado Pago, up to 3 interest-free installments (CFTEA 0.00%), with the total shown next to them. • If you pay in US dollars or euros (PayPal, Wise), we convert the price at the exchange rate you see before paying. That rate is fixed in your order, and your booking stays in the currency you paid in. • Once paid, the price does not change. If you paid a deposit, the balance stays fixed in pesos, at the price on the day of your purchase. 6. PAYMENT METHODS AND DEPOSIT • Depending on the country you pay from: bank transfer (Argentine accounts), Mercado Pago, PayPal (USD), Wise (USD or EUR) and Prex (Uruguay). We do not accept cash through the website. • We do not store card details: payment is made on the Mercado Pago or PayPal page. • Deposit: for services that allow it, you can pay 50% by bank transfer and the balance, also by bank transfer, up to 48 hours before the first service. Trains are paid in full. The voucher is issued with the deposit. • If the balance does not arrive on time, we will contact you. If it is not paid, we may cancel the booking, applying the cancellation policy to the amount paid. 7. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL Within 10 calendar days of your purchase, and up to 24 hours before the first service, you can withdraw without giving a reason. We refund 100% of what you paid, with no charges. There is no right of withdrawal for purchases made less than 24 hours before the service, nor for trains and services run by other operators ("Operated by …"), which follow their operator's policy. The deadline for your purchase is shown before you pay, in the confirmation email and in your order. You can withdraw with the withdrawal button (in the footer of every page), on WhatsApp or by email: we give you an identification code right away and reply within 24 hours. The refund is made through the same method you paid with, within 10 business days. 8. CANCELLATIONS AND CHANGES Outside the withdrawal period, each service's policy applies. The penalty is calculated on what you paid (if you paid a deposit, on the deposit). • Shared group tours and packages: free of charge up to 48 hours before; after that, 100% is retained. • Private tours and trips: free of charge up to 15 days before; after that, 50% is retained. • Trains and services run by other operators: according to the operator's policy. Also: • You can cancel for all travelers or only for some.

With less than 48 hours, it is treated as a cancellation. For private tours and trips, date changes are reviewed case by case. For trains, the operator's rules apply. • If we cancel a service because of weather, road closures or another cause beyond your control, we offer to reschedule it, leave the date open for later use, or refund 100% of what you paid for that service. • If you leave a service that has already started for personal reasons, no refund applies for that service. • If you want to cancel outside the free period, we may offer to keep the amount as credit for another activity. • Refunds are made through the same method you paid with, within 10 business days of the cancellation being accepted. 9.

Frequently asked questions

Where is the Cabra Corral reservoir, and how far is it from Salta?

It's south of Salta city, about 90 km away, a 1.5-hour trip. It's the largest reservoir in the province and the hub for water adventure activities.

What activities are there, and can I combine several on the same day?

There's bungee jumping, puenting (bridge swing), zipline, banana boat, jet ski, and boat trips. You can combine several on the same day; the Adrenaline and Adventure packs bundle them at a discount.

Is there somewhere to eat? Is lunch included?

Lunch isn't included. There's a restaurant next to the bridge and food stands.

Are there restrooms, changing rooms, and somewhere to leave my things?

There are restrooms. There are no lockers, so it's best to bring only what you need.

Can someone come along just as a companion? Do they pay?

Yes. If they travel with the group to the reservoir, they pay for the transfer.

Do the activities run year-round?

Yes, they run year-round.

Do I need previous experience?

No, unless the activity page says otherwise. Before you start, the instructors explain everything and stay with you during the activity.

Are there health, weight, or pregnancy restrictions?

Each activity has its own age, weight, and health limits, listed under "Requirements" on the activity page. If you have a medical condition or are pregnant, check with us before booking.

Is it safe? Who runs the activity?

It's run by licensed providers or our own team, with trained instructors and guides, safety gear, and a mandatory briefing beforehand. Adventure tourism activities include personal accident insurance.

What happens if the weather doesn't allow the activity?

The activity depends on the wind, rain, and water conditions, and the instructor makes the call for safety reasons. If it's canceled, we offer to reschedule it, leave the date open, or give you a refund.

What happens if I get there and decide I don't want to do it?

It's more common than you'd think, and nobody will force you. The amount isn't refunded, but you can switch to another activity, paying the difference if applicable.

Can I bring my phone, a camera, or a GoPro? Are there photographers?

Yes, you can bring a camera with a mount. The provider will tell you how to use it and when to put it away.

How far in advance do I need to book? Can I book for today or tomorrow?

We recommend booking in advance, especially during Argentine winter holidays, Easter and long weekends. On the website you can book until 6 pm the day before, unless the tour page shows a different cutoff. To pay by bank transfer you need at least 2 days before the departure. For the same day or outside those hours, message us on WhatsApp and we will check availability.

How do I know if there is availability, and when is my booking confirmed?

It depends on the service, and the tour page tells you before you pay. Services with "Instant confirmation" are confirmed as soon as the payment goes through, and you get the voucher right away. For the rest, your booking is registered when you pay and we confirm it with the provider within a few hours, during business hours. For trains, the ticket is issued by the operator. If there were no availability, we offer you another date, another activity or a full refund. Services on request are booked on WhatsApp: we confirm availability first.

Can I change the date or the travelers, or modify my booking after paying?

Yes, message us on WhatsApp and we will take care of it. For shared group tours and packages, if you let us know 48 hours or more in advance, we change the date free of charge, subject to availability. For private tours and trips we review each case, and for trains the operator's policy applies.

What happens if I need to cancel?

Within 10 days of your purchase and up to 24 hours before the first service, you can withdraw and we refund everything, except for trains and services run by other operators. Outside that period, each service's policy applies, which you see before paying: shared group tours can be canceled free of charge up to 48 hours before. It is calculated on what you paid, and you can cancel for all travelers or only for some.

What happens if the tour is canceled due to weather or force majeure?

First, we offer to reschedule it for another date. If you can't, we leave the date open so you can use it later, and if that doesn't work for you either, we refund what you paid.

What payment methods do you accept? Is there a discount depending on how I pay?

It depends on where you are paying from, and you choose it in your order. From Argentina: bank transfer or Mercado Pago, with a credit or debit card or account balance, and up to 3 interest-free installments. From abroad: PayPal, Wise or a card through Mercado Pago, and from Uruguay also Prex. Paying by bank transfer from an Argentine account gives you a discount: the tour page and the cart show the price with each method before you pay. We do not accept cash through the website.

Can I pay from another country or with a foreign card?

Yes. In your order, choose the country you are paying from and you will see the available methods: PayPal (in US dollars), Wise (in US dollars or euros) or a card through Mercado Pago. From Uruguay you can also pay with Prex. If your card is declined, try PayPal or Wise, or message us on WhatsApp.

What happens if I'm late?

There's little leeway, because the vehicle follows a route with other travelers. We'll try to contact you, but if you're not there on time, you may miss the service.

What language are the tours in? Can I request a guide in English or Portuguese?

Tours are in Spanish. English is available on request: let us know when you book. Portuguese is available only occasionally and must be requested in advance.

Can children come? Can I bring a baby? Do you have child seats?

Yes, children and babies can travel on shared group tours. If you need a baby seat, request it when you book and we'll install it. The minimum age for each activity is listed on its page.

Are tours suitable for seniors or people with reduced mobility?

Shared group tours are suitable for seniors; the effort level for each one is listed on the tour page. They're not suitable for people with reduced mobility, due to the type of vehicles.

Do I need to tell you about any health conditions?

Yes. When you book, let us know about any condition the guide should be aware of, such as heart or respiratory problems, pregnancy, or allergies. We use this only to organize the service.

Ayer fui con mi hija a la isla, Justo nos agarró el temporal. El Equipo nos regaló un poncho de agua y nos dio bebidas calientes, sin cargo alguno. Nos quedamos en la isla hasta que pase el temporal, pese al clima recomiendo la excursión, todos muy atentos con el grupo que me toco

El paseo a la isla de los deseos es muy lindo y recomendable. DESTACO el personal que trabaja en la isla y principalmente a Priscila que es muy atenta y amorosa ? Dentro de la Isla está Pocho, una llama, que se encuentra en PÉSIMAS condiciones de vida, ya que permiten que turistas le den de comer lo que sea desde papas fritas hasta carne, no vi al personal prohibiendo que se lo alimenten o algún cartel advirtiendo. Sin contar que lo atosigan con fotos, videos, los niños lo usaban para jugar por lo menos podrían medir la exposición del animal con la gente. El resto del Paseo en catamaran fue bueno, algunos detalles como que no te ayudan a ponerte el chaleco salvavidas o no te explican como usarlo

Aún fuera de temporada y en día de semana nos recibieron muy bien, paseamos en lancha.. los chicos pudieron meterse al agua. El guía muy atento, nos renovó los salvavidas para que no volvamos mojados.
