Salta and the northwest Andes: Walking tour of Salta

Walking tour of Salta

With its laidback pace, convivial Salta is a great place in which to wander. The Spanish legacy remains obvious in the city’s attractive squares, cathedrals and convents, while here in the country’s northern reaches you can also detect an affinity with neighbouring Bolivia.

To complete your stroll on a literal high, this half-day walking tour concludes with a trip to the top of San Bernardo Hill by cable car to see the city unfold before you.

What our experts say

Salta is a lovely city with an ornate baroque colonial core, easy to explore on foot. The city has grown into a sprawling urban area but the highlights are all close together. To get a good idea of its size, you can take the cable car which runs to the top of a nearby hill.
