What to do in Salta

One of the least-visited destinations in Argentina, the Northwest has a bounty of national parks. The main hub is Salta, full of historic architecture and the fantastic Incan heritage museum. From here, set off with a guide in the direction of your choice, whether that's hiking across the surreal salt flats or into the jungle, marvelling at the formidable 'Arrows of the gods' and watching the sunset over the Hill of Seven Colours, or sipping on the wines of Cafayate. You could even end off your experience with a ride on the Train to the Clouds...
