Fantastic! We booked this as we thought it would be something unusual maybe unique to do whilst holidaying in the Salta region and we were not disappointed. The views were breathtakingly stunning and the llamas beautiful and gentle. Our guide spoke really good English and he was so helpful and informative in his explanations. We would definitely recommend this trip to anyone visiting Purmamarca.

Summary:
This was our favourite activity in Jujuy! Walking through the park of the Hill of the Seven Colours was made extra special by our guide Fabricio and his wonderful llamas. Fabricio is a wealth of knowledge about the area, which he delivers in both English and Spanish - and the llamas are so friendly. I loved spending time with these remarkable animals, and finding out about the incredible history of this part of the world. If we had the time I would do this activity all over again!

Summary:
We booked this tour as a birthday present for our 4 year old daughter, but I think we all enjoyed it more than we could have imagined. Our guide was super knowledgeable and patient with us. He explained really well how to handle the animals and you could tell he loved his llama’s. The walk itself is so much fun, with amazing views all around. If you are looking for an authentic experience in a beautiful setting with an amazing host, look no further! A big plus is the interaction with the animals and the photos that are taken during the walk 🙏🏼🍀
