Nice beach but the only problem is there is a lot of people selling food and drinks.

Beautiful sunsets. Attentive and proactive lifeguards. Many families and kids enjoying the beach. Nonintrusive vendors. Minus two stars for shards of broken glass, many cigarette butts, and garbage in the sand.

A beach with beautiful sea

I would give it the five stars if it wasn't for the bird's poop that expell a disgusting smell. Despite that you can find places to eat, to sit, to play sports such beach tennis, beach soccer, beach volley and so on. There is a little zoo, the casino is also there and just across the street you can find some restaurants more settled. It's a swimmable beach so daily you'll see body swimmers, surfers, swimmers and such. Nice place to spend the morning or the evening. It's hot on sunny days so watch out.

A nice clean beach but the water was cold

Nice beach experience

Love it

Roxana was an incredible tour guide. She was extremely knowledgeable about La Paz, being a native and about the rock formations and legend behind the creations of these formations. She guided us slowly and talked to us about Neil Armstrong and the moon ways of the land, how protected it is and what it's made of. Roxana was an amazing photographer as well. I really enjoyed my time doing this tour.

The valley is a very big and impressive site. The landscape is vast, dry, and full of unusual rock formations and colours. It really does feel like you are on another planet. We joined a tour, which was good but a bit limited. We only stopped at two places inside the valley itself before heading off to the main viewpoint for sunset. The views at sunset were fantastic, wide open skies, golden light over the mountains. It was definitely the highlight of the tour. If you are happy to drive yourself, there is a lot more to explore on your own. You can stop where you like, take your time, and see more of the smaller sights within the area. The site is large, and there are walking tracks and lookouts spread around. Overall, it is well worth a visit, whether on a tour or self-drive. The scenery is unique and very different. Just be aware that tours tend to move quickly, so if you prefer to explore at your own pace, driving yourself may be the better choice.

This is the best natural reserve/park I have ever been to. It is taken care of to an incredible level. At the start you get a personal explanation of the park and there are multiple small hikes that are all worth doing. In total we walked for about 2h and drove around as well. If possible I would recommend doing it in a rental car or by bike, since you can enjoy the place at your own pace and see everything you want. Definitely a must see in this region.

Valley of the Moon (Valle de la Luna) in Chile is an absolutely stunning and unforgettable destination! Located just outside San Pedro de Atacama, this place truly lives up to its name—the landscapes are so surreal and dramatic that you feel like you’ve landed on another planet. The salt flats, jagged rock formations, and massive sand dunes create a breathtaking backdrop that is perfect for photography and exploring. I visited during sunset, and the colors were just incredible—the sky turned shades of pink, orange, and purple, and the whole valley seemed to glow. The views from the top of the sand dunes and the Kari Viewpoint are spectacular, offering panoramic vistas over the Atacama Desert and the distant Andes mountains. Walking the trails through the valley, I was amazed by the unique rock formations like the Amphitheater and Las Tres Marías, as well as the salt caves and canyons. The site is well-organized, with clear trails and friendly staff who help protect the fragile environment. There are basic facilities at the entrance, but I recommend bringing plenty of water, sun protection, and a camera to capture the ever-changing light and scenery. It’s easy to visit on your own by car or bike, but I joined a guided tour and learned a lot about the geology and history of the area. If you’re in San Pedro de Atacama, you absolutely can’t miss Valley of the Moon. It’s one of the most unique and beautiful places I’ve ever seen, and the sunset experience is truly magical. Highly recommended for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone looking for an adventure in Chile!

We self drove The Valley of the Moon and bought tickets online in advance the morning of our visit, it’s very close to San Pedro. This place really is like another planet, a landscape unlike any other. We were blown away by its beauty.

Breathtaking views of mountains, valleys, geological formations (calcium and salt layers compressed by millions of years).

Awesome Place to explore by bycicle and on foot for yourself, but there are some things to consider: First, the entrance fee is 10.800 pesos per person (Nov '25) and you can only pay by card at the entrance station. Second, the last possible entry time is 11am, afterwards they close for private riders and i think guests without a tour in general. And third, the last possible exit time is 3pm. By that time you need to be back at the entrance station. Your ticket is also valid for a sunset point later though. I actually did it that way, because i was only informed about that last minute. It was doable, and a great experience for me, but i did it fast and it was not too hot on that day. I think, for most people, one or two hours more/earlier would be better. 😉 Oh, and bring water, you won't regret it. 😋

7 pools with different temperatures, clearest water I've seen, beautiful setting. OK changing rooms. Beware of you go for the morning slot to be ready to be rushed out at 1pm.

Lovely spot, we had a rental car and the drive was a breeze - no 4WD required! Spend approximately 3 hours in the water and then made the trek back up to the car park. Being plenty of food and water, at this altitude you’ll need it before heading back!

Ancient houses and animal’s domestication corrals, thousand-year old cactus, and the most important the hot springs that you can delight for free, several pools, not crowded. The trail is about 25min to get to the largest pools and moderate difficulty. Solo big steps to go up and down will required to use your hands.

I loved this place! It's great fun to swim in such warm, clear pools and splash under the little waterfalls. The changing facilities are ok, and not too intrusive on the overall natural look of the place. The only downside is that I relied on a tour company to get me there, and they only picked me up at 2pm - so by the time we arrived we'd lost an hour of the 3 hours you can spend here.

Beautiful location. Well maintained baths, changing areas, and walkways. .

A bit of a must-see! Take a robe, towel and sandals - it's cold stepping out of the hot water. I believe the further downstream you go the cooler the water. Was not too hot

A nice, natural place for thermal bath. equipped with changing rooms (lockers without lock) and wash rooms. Recommend to buy tickets in advance online but tickets can also be bought at reception with cash, 30000 clp per person. Connected road is poorly maintained, like most of the roads in San Pedro.

Worst experience in the region! No water or hot shower at the end of a trekking day is awful! The owner is completely absent, they have a huge problem with hot water in the showers and we had a complete day without water at all. They should rebuilt their basic infrastructure urgently! We made a complaint to the owner but got no answer so far.

Lovely hotel with quiet rooms and great views. Nice pool and staff are friendly, and they offer a very nice breakfast in the morning.

Off street parking, great rooms, great pool area, nice breakfast, very helpful staff.

(Translated by Google) Excellent rest, comfortable, spacious, and cool rooms. Very dedicated and friendly staff. Ample but good breakfast. (Original) Excelente descanso, cómodo, habitaciones amplias y frescas. Personal muy dedicado y amable. Desayuno basto y bueno

(Translated by Google) I liked the accommodation, the external infrastructure and the staff (always attentive). Getting to the hotel is a bit deserted and dark but nothing like the starry sky and the full moon to transport your thoughts to a magical place. After all, we are in the desert! I recommend it and would stay at this hotel again. (Original) Gostei da acomodação, da infraestrutura na parte externa e dos funcionários ( sempre atenciosos). Para chegar ao hotel é um pouco deserto e escuro mas nada como o céu estrelado e a lua cheia para transportar seus pensamentos para um lugar mágico. Afinal, estamos no deserto! Recomendo e voltaria a me hospedar nesse hotel.

(Translated by Google) It should be noted that the cleanliness of both the room and the facilities, everything is pristine. The staff is very attentive, kind, friendly and helps you with your questions. The hotel is simple, not pretentious or luxurious. If your plan is to take walks and visits, where you are only looking for a place to sleep and rest without spending a lot of money but with a higher level than a hostel, this hotel is a good choice. The hotel does not have many services (there is no bar, restaurant, laundry, room service, etc.); The pool and patio are very enjoyable and it is a 5-minute walk from the center of San Pedro. (Original) Hay que destacar que la limpieza tanto en la habitación como en las instalaciones, todo está prístino. El personal es muy atento, amable, simpático y te ayuda con tus consultas. El hotel es sencillo, no es pretencioso o lujoso. Si tu plan es realizar paseos y visitas, donde solamente estar buscando un lugar para dormir y descansar sin gastar mucho dinero pero con un nivel superior a un hostel, este hotel es una buena elección. En hotel no cuenta con muchos servicios (no hay bar, restaurante, lavanderia, servicio a la habitacion, etc); la piscina y el patio es muy disfrutable y esta a 5 minutos caminando del centro de San Pedro.

(Translated by Google) Hotel with a good name and logo, fairly new and a good pool. The best thing is the friendliness of the staff, but the bedrooms do not have acoustic insulation, the bathroom without ventilation and has a permanent latrine smell, the bed, the shower and the sink designed for people over 1 meter 90!, without a minibar. I didn't like the price-quality ratio, for half the price I stayed in a hotel in Calama with everything much better, except the surroundings of course, but the difference is too much. The breakfast on the 1st day was disastrous, they did not have enough service, neither plates nor tables, the china and service of low quality, the food less, without options of light yogurt, low quality cheese and ham, etc. In short, it needs to be improved because it is well located, close enough and far enough from the center of town. (Original) Hotel con bien nombre y logo, bastante nuevo y buena piscina. Lo mejor es la amabilidad del personal, pero los dormitorios no tienen aislacion acústica, el baño sin ventilación y con un olor a letrina permanentemente, la cama, la ducha y el lavamanos diseñado para personas de mas un metro 90!, sin frigobar. La relación precio calidad no me gustó, por la mitad del valor estuve un hotel en Calama con todo mucho mejor, salvo el entorno por supuestos, pero la diferencia es demasiada. El desayuno del 1er dia fue desastroso, no tenian servicio suficiente, ni platos ni mesas, la loza y servicio de baja calidad, la comida masmenos, sin opciones de yogurt light, queso y jamon de baja calidad, etc. En resumen le falta por mejorar pues está bien ubicado, lo suficientemente cerca y lejos del centro del pueblo.

Loved this place. We went with a guide so we had only 20 minutes to get inside the lagoon, so if you want to enjoy it more I definitely recommend going solo, without a guide. It’s not far from the city at all. The water is cold but I personally didn’t find it freezing like people told me it was. It’s so nice to just be floating there. Bring your towels with your if you’re planning to get in, they have a place where you can shower (no soap or anything, just water) you have a limit time in the shower as well, but it’s time enough to get the salt out of your skin. I recommend to slick your hair back or else it will be like a stone lol.

A short drive from San Pedro, Laguna Cejar is a beautiful place. You need to book a ticket on the website in advance. You have a one hour slot. The Laguna is being carefully cared for and preserved by the indigenous people in the area; and the limited time means less impact on the beautiful environment. There are three lagoons, we walked around the first one and then floated in the second one. We didn’t make it to the third as we wanted to spend as much time in the water as possible. We were there in August for the 11am slot and it was chilly. Mornings are for independent travelers and afternoons for guided tours. There are changing areas and showers you can use afterwards, there is a 20 second limit for the shower due to water scarcity. We went back to our Airbnb to shower which seemed easier. You cannot wear sunscreen in the Laguna due to the environmental impact, this conflicts with information on their website when translated to English. This was a beautiful and calming experience, floating in the arid landscape of Atacama. Please don’t be put off by other reviewers. Local people are doing all they can to share the Laguna whilst limiting human impact. It’s a must see in Atacama.

The lake has been closed for human activities for a couple of years because it was degrading the environment. Now it is home of flamingos that can be watched from the border of the lake. Next to this lake there’s another one that still is open to swimming for max of 20min due to skin damage beyond this exposure. It’s really great to float on that salty lake.

This was my second time here after my first visit 6 years ago. It was annoying to get in as cars were filed in a long line, even people who had reservations. But the laguna was just as nice as I remembered. As someone who isn’t a strong swimmer, it was fun to float around

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. We were able to stay part an hour and walked all over the park. We saw flamingos in the lagoons, very cool. There weren’t a lot of people and we were not rushed. Great experience.

Short walk to see three beautiful lagoons. Excellent facilities with changing rooms showers, and clean bathrooms. Tickets available online only, buy in advance. The road is in great shape, easily passable in any vehicle.

What a total waste of of money! Tourist trap!! At $30 for the tour and $20 for the entrance fee you are getting so little. A 15 minute swim in salt water and a poor view of salt lagoons.

There is nothing to be seen here. The salt crystal is more like a mixture of salt and dirt, not as impressive as the ones in Uyuni Bolivia or Bonneville in Salt Lake City USA. Some pictures posted by other reviewers actually belong to Laguna Chaxa, a park 10 km away.

(Translated by Google) Very, very hot. It seems obvious, but since I went in the summer, I could feel the salt in the air and in my breath. In the summer, there is almost no water, so there is no mirror effect on the salt. But it is surreal and beautiful. You can walk around it, and there are several stops for photos. That's all: prepare yourself with plenty of water and sun protection. Don't be fooled by the wind, it will burn your skin. (Original) Muito, muito quente. Parece óbvio, mas como fui no verão, dava para sentir sal no ar, na respiração. No verão quase não tem água e por isso não faz o efeito de espelho de água sobre o sal. Mas é surreal de lindo. Dá para caminhar ao redor, tem várias paradas para fotos. Só aquilo: prepare-se com bastante água e proteção do sol. Não se engane com o vento, esta queimando sua pele.

(Translated by Google) The Atacama salt flat, which closes the trilogy along with the Cejar and Tebinquinche lagoons, is located 56 km from the town of San Pedro de Atacama and delights us with its vast saline extension with a radiant white and its semi-crystalline waters. We can also observe the striking flamingos and a scarce flora product of the existing salinity. This particular natural setting has been formed by millennia-old water and geomorphological processes; it is undoubtedly a destination par excellence where charm and beauty come together. (Original) El salar de Atacama que cierra la trilogía junto a las lagunas Cejar y Tebinquinche, se ubica a 56 kms del pueblo de San Pedro de Atacama y nos deleita con su vasta extensión salina con un blanco radiante y sus aguas semi cristalinas, además podemos observar los tan llamativos flamencos y una escaza flora producto de la salinidad existente. Este particular escenario natural ha sido formado por milenarios procesos hídricos y geomorfológicos, sin duda es un destino por excelencia donde se conjugan el encanto y la belleza.

(Translated by Google) Waste of time I don't give it a zero because there isn't any I still don't understand the reason for this tour The flamingos are far away The only thing that was worth it was the guide Rodrigo. Good conversation. I suggest that instead of this tour, go for a walk. Visit the meteorite museum or the Gustavo le Paige museum (Original) Perda de tempo Não dou zero porque não tem Até hoje não entendi o motivo desse passeio Os flamingos são distantes Só valeu pelo guia Rodrigo . Conversa boa. Sugiro que ao invés desse passeio vá bater perna. Conhecer o museu do meteorito ou o museu Gustavo le paige

(Translated by Google) very beautiful, very different geography, the flamingos are also beautiful (Original) muito bonito, geografia bem diferente, os flamingos também são lindos

(Translated by Google) A wonderful and exotic place. (Original) Un lugar maravilloso y exotico.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place protected by the Atacameños is a natural reserve (Original) Hermoso lugar protegido por los Atacameños es una reserva natural

One of the most spectacular views I the world. When the lake came into view it took my breath away... saying that, note this lake is at 4,200m altitude so make sure you are acclimatised a bit before visiting this lake.

Buy your tickets in advance online and then present your QR code to the desk in Socaire before you go to the lakes. This is a required step—they will not let you enter if you have not done this. And, you really don’t want to miss these lakes. They are truly beautiful and there’s lots of bird and llama activity. It’s so serene and quiet—what a nice place to chill out. The staff is friendly and there are bathrooms at two locations which are really clean.

The best place I’ve never been! So valuable trip! Though we all have to wake up early, but definitely worth checking out. *reminder: better to register day tour with agency , I don’t think it’s a good idea to come here by yourself

Beautiful lagunas with some wild life l! Still very high in altitude! I bought a combo ticket of both lagunas and piedra Rojas! The road access is pretty good but it is gravel and it is uphill! Quiet cold and wind during our visit!

We visited this place in late September on a sunny day. This is amazing, breathtaking and well worth it! We saw vicunas and some of the wild birds. Purchase entrance tickets online in advance. Pick up the paper tickets at the office in Solcaire (30 mins away from the laguna). Unpaved roads and some parts especially the end to the lagoon are very sandy. careful of high altitude sickness.

It’s a so beautiful, again beautiful lake. The scenery is so spectacular, and vivid blue of the lake and the sky. The altitude is more than 4,000m. So, please be careful for your body situation. It’s better to go by the tour from San Pedro de Atacama. It was one of the best place in my life.

The place is 5/5 beautiful. But the ticket booking system is such a disappointment that makes it 3/5. You’ll need a lot of patience and sacrifice your privacy to successfully book the tickets. There are a lot of forms with a lot of repetitive questions to fill. They require visitors to arrive one hour in advance but it’s not necessary.

Nice small town. You can find knick-knacks in the main square. There is a public restroom that you have to pay to access. Pretty common practice in that area Then we visited the botanical garden which it’s a must.

Sept.25: we went late afternoon by car, the road is very bumpy, but could do it by regular car. The tour was already closed, so we looked around by ourselves & went up the Mirador Cerro de la Cruz (viewpoint). It's a steep walk up, but rewarding views from top! There was a sign that you could call to visit the Cueva del Wayra caves (for next day), but no response either...

Amazing place, so steeped in history. I loved the explanations on the signs and the brochure, which helped to explain the effects of the outsiders on the settlement: First the Incas, then the Spanish, and finally the incompetent archeologists of the 1930s. I wandered up and down for two hours, really super interesting.

I discovered this by mistake and am so glad I did. The tour guide is a must! He is a phylosiphy professor from University of Buenos Aires (UBA) and his explanations were comprehensive, very nuanced in discussing colonization

Beautiful scenery. Just don't forget that you'll be at over 4,000 meters above sea level. Don't overexert yourself. Listen to your body.

Beautiful view and so much history! Learned a lot from our guide. Jardin botanico inside is small but very nice . Heads up last time to enter is 17:30, after 17:30 they wont let you in

Impressive remains of an ancient city, first taken over by Incas and then by the Spanish. Great views as it's on a hill and many cacti🌵 around if you like them.

Great experience. The Mirador is just in front of the hill and you have great view You can then do the walk, not difficult at all and very nice

The walk around the Hill of Seven Colors is definitely worth it! The trail takes about 1 hour and costs around 1000 ARS. It’s an easy hike, not difficult at all, and the views are absolutely stunning. A super nice and relaxing activity to do while in Purmamarca!

Absolutely spectacular walk! I was charged 300 pesos for the loop but usually that’s the Argentinian national price (despite being a foreigner myself). It’s so worth it and also you can use the same ticket the next day if you want.

A great stop between Salta and Salt Flats. Lots of food hotel and shopping options. Viewing platform and mountain hiking area.

For avoiding crowds and heat go there around 4:30pm… its free and amazing short walk :)

Worth stopping at a panoramic view spot when entering the town and also go for a hike on the actual mountain.

Magnificent place and a very beautiful mountain! If it's not sunny the colors are not seen very clearly so plan your trip very well.

Thinking that this drive would be slightly less incredible compared to my previous days drives through the Salinas and El Hornocal, I couldn't have been more wrong. You start in Yungas and make your way ever higher to a marvelous red rock canyon which contrasts dramatically with the lush green vegetation. Eventually the road became dirt and climbed into the clouds only to emerge on a desert altiplano which descends to the famous Recta del Tin Tin, a road said to be in use since the Incas. Spectacular.

Very impressive.

Loved the beauty of this drive -- it's breath taking.

(Translated by Google) Incredible place. An inexplicable view! You can't appreciate such immensity in photos. Don't miss the viewpoint on the way to the salt flats. (Original) Increíble lugar. Una vista inexplicable! No se puede apreciar en las fotos tanta inmensidad. No podes dejar de visitar el mirador camino a las salinas.

(Translated by Google) Excellent journey if you like adventure, a very difficult path. But the reward is great... (Original) Exelente travesía si es que te gusta la aventura, un camino muy difícil Pero la recompensa es grande...

(Translated by Google) We had a very foggy day, so we couldn't really appreciate the scenery, but it's still a nice road. The last part is gravel, but it's good gravel. (Original) Nos tocó un día de mucha neblina, no se pudo apreciar mucho el paisaje pero igual es un lindo camino, la última parte es de ripio pero es un buen ripio.

(Translated by Google) It's a place every Argentinian and citizen of the world should know... the road is passable and you can stay in Cachi... the published photos are beautiful... but they don't do justice to seeing those landscapes in person... (Original) Es un lugar que todo argentino y ciudadano del mundo debería conocer...el camino es transitable y podes alojarte en Cachi...las fotos publicadas son hermosos...pero no le hacen honor a ver esos paisajes en vivo...

Lovely Church. Attended mass in Spanish this morning.

Sept.25: short visit as we were in Salta @time of arrival there was a mass. Beautiful in & outside. Free of charge.

Both a great tourist attraction and a fully functioning Catholic church (mass is celebrated daily), this is the main cathedral in the city of Salta. Not old, for European standards, it was built in the mid 1800s, it still boasts a richly decorated interior full of altars and religious art (paintings, statues and a wonderfully fresco painted ceiling). The cloister next door is small and not breathtaking, but still worth to see when visiting the cathedral.

Impressive example of decorative art. This building though is fairly recent. The atmosphere is cozy. The church has many security guards who are very helpful may you need assistance. It is a great place to pray or simply to admire the many different artifacts and sculptures.

The heart of Salta. We witnessed a religious festival and the atmosphere was spectacular. And what a beautiful church, elaborate decor inside, full of life.

Like the architecture! Nice place for tourist. A place full of art

Impressive cathedral, mass is celebrated everyday.

Fascinating museum. We arrived at 11:10 and waited approx 15 minutes to enter the museum, buying tickets on the door. Really insightful if you have limited prior knowledge of Inca history and culture. An incredible opportunity to see The Lightning Girl mummy, very harrowing. Limited English translations so we missed understanding some of the exhibits, but to be expected in an Argentinian museum. The museum is quite small and can easily be visited within 1.5h. I’d love a larger collection and more stories, but overall a worthwhile visit.

Great little museum. I was there for about an hr. There are some pretty interesting and intricate artifacts, but the highlight is definitely seeing the mummy and reading about the sacrifice. There are three mummies of which 1 is on display for 8 months at a time. You can see pictures/videos of the others however. There is also a 2nd mummy that was found in the 1920s (and lost on the black market until recently) that is also on display and looks like it’s from a horror movie. Great museum and a bit creepy. Especially with the eerie music playing.

Relatively interesting but small museum. I completely understand that tourists pay the double price compared to nationals and four time the entrance fee for people from Salta… however, since most of the explanation is in Spanish and there is only few elements translated in English… the price is not fair. You could, at least provide a paper with the translation in English

Very interesting museum and a must do in Salta. The exhibition is translated into English (or at least the main exhibition is). I would recommend to anyone visiting the area. You can tell great care was taken in explaining everything as best as possible and showing things with respect. The price for a foreigner was $13,000 in July 2025. For a national it was $6,000 and for an Argentinian student it was $2,000. You pay for the tickets at the entrance. When we arrived they told us we had to wait 20 mins until the next group were allowed, even though we didn’t go around as a group, I guess this is to steady the flow.

Great museum. You learn a lot about the incas and their relation with the mountains. It took us about 1h to go through every and we found it perfect. I really recommend it during your stay in Salta.

Many interesting artifacts including the bodies / mummies of three inca children preserved by frozen temperatures. May be jarring to some and frightening to children, which one should assume at the mention of a mummy. Very interesting dark and quiet exhibit room, 5 stars for that on its own, but overall left me wanting a little more by the end.

The museum was interesting but it lacked explanation in English, only the small part was translated to English and it was hard to understand some pictures.

One of the most stunning drives I’ve ever done. The colors and rock formations are surreal—like stepping into a painting. Every few minutes, you feel like stopping the car just to stare. We took our time, pulled over at El Anfiteatro and La Garganta del Diablo (both a must), but honestly, the whole road is an open-air museum. Go around sunset if you can—the light on the red rocks is unforgettable. No entrance fee, just nature at its best.

Sept.25: following RN68 from Cafayate to Salta, this ravine is truly awesome with magnificent views! Take your time to stop wherever you can & take in those views!

And I thought southwest USA was unique! Northwest Argentina in general, and this Quebrada in particular, are just as spectacular, colorful and breathtaking. I so wish I had devoted more time to explore it. Do yourself a favor and spend time here. If you're pressed for time, you can skip the Garganta del Diablo and El anfiteatro, way too touristy, and go backcountry. I recommend spending at least 3 days here.

Unbelievable beautiful. ‏A wonder. Liked it so much so i went twice.

Beautiful easy hike up a dry river bed. We went 1/2 mile could have gone further

Park and go on a walk. You won’t regret it! Really cool cave not too far from the road.

Beautiful landscape! Recommend walking up the hill to see the cars passing on the road!

It is one of the most emblematic buildings in the history and culture of Argentina. Although throughout its long history it has undergone many modifications, and one could say that little remains of its original construction, this does not take away its historical and symbolic value. It is recommended to visit it with the guided tours and the night show, which offers a historical overview of the independence struggle. This show lasts approximately half an hour and it is necessary to register in a list. Entrance is free.

Very well preserved, nice explanation of history, good staff. It's free.

Amazing experience of authentic argentinian history 💓

Icon of tucuman and it makes a lot of sense to Argentiniana though it could be better explained for foreigners.

Interesting place, well explained though in Spanish only. From a historical point of view, the account in the museum is accurate, balanced, and asks a lot of fascinating questions. Unless the debate republic vs monarchy, central vs federal, self government vs independence. Unfortunately it's all text, there's hardly any multimedia material except intro to the 29 representatives who signed the declaration of independence.

Really cool, not too much there and the machine didn't work and there was a enterance fee. Still cool place a must see if you're around.

Excellent leisure time free entry museum walking area. Great pieces history of Argentina in Tucuman. Reading everything it can take 50 minutes tops. Great walking area afterwards.

Changed a lot from before. Now the bird only comes out and does 3x a ringing sound. Not much noise or anything to see. Waited for a long time and although it is neat to see, bit disappointing to see how it has changed and not for the beneficial entertainment of tourists or locals. Nice to see if you’re passing by, but not much to make a big detour for.

Nice bird. Just need more colours. The small door opens to the right side (looking from the front), so it's not a good view from that side. It's better to wait in the center or the left hand side (heading alfajores La Quinta)

Seriously, this silly clock is a tourist attraction that draws crowds? Had I waited to see this and not passed at the moment t it went off I would have regretted every minute wasted. Uninspired

If you arrive 1 or 2 minutes before the hour, you can see 1 bird pop out. If you need to wait more than 2 minutes, continue your journey

Emblematic place for all the tourist people at Villa Carlos Paz, and that is so bizarre when you see it, because is so ugly but funny in the same time, you must to do it

Horrible!

Nice place... Every half and hour Cucú comes out...

Chill place in Cordoba to relax and enjoy ice cream or coffee from nearby cafes or simply just people watch. Good view of the church!

Local authorities have made this former female prison into not only a convenient meeting place for people (there are restaurants), but also a lovely art center. The feel is very chill and people are drawn to sit in its gardens and have some mate. All in all, a nice place for a meal, some drinks, or just meeting up with friends.

On Sunday I saw dancing waters at 6 pm and then at 8 pm it was very crowded but beautiful overall lots of things to do and eat around the area as well

Great place to take a walk and admire the architecture of the place and the surrounding. Everything here is good for children except that the people here smokes too much and somehow they all like to smoke near the walking places, so that's the only bad thing about this place.

Free! Great relaxing municipal building. Extremely clean. We were lucky to view a local art installation and to sit and relax for a few minutes on many of the available benches. Highly recommended stop. Plan an hour or less. We went back by in the evening to see the spactacular fountain light show.

No events going on. Building is beautiful on the inside and worth stopping by.

Lovely art gallery and culinary centre.

Absolutely stunning! The Iglesia de los Capuchinos is a masterpiece of neo-Gothic architecture that stands out as one of Córdoba’s most beautiful landmarks. The level of detail on the facade is incredible—gargoyles, columns, and a mix of stonework that tells a story even before you walk in. Inside, the stained glass windows and ornate altars are breathtaking. There’s a peaceful, reverent atmosphere that invites quiet reflection. Make sure to look up—the ceiling and interior design are just as intricate as the exterior. Whether you’re religious or not, this is a must-see spot in the city. Tip: Try to visit in the late afternoon for the best lighting through the stained glass!

Beautiful Church with lots of Character. Went here for mass on Saturday night at 7PM. It was a nice service. In the summer temperatures can get hot so try to sit near a fan.

A quiet place where to stay

This is a beautiful church to see from the outside at night and the inside during the day. It's in one of the central parks of Córdoba so you can't miss it. Some of the bars in the area also have rooftops to look out over the park and you can see the church, check them out.

Beautiful church, right in the city center of Cordoba! At night, its lights make the church a masterpiece!

Must visit place! I visit this place 2x (at morning and at night) and both offers totally different atmosphere! Awesome architecture!

Amazing colour and art all around. Also very close to other incredible landmarks in Córdoba

A historical place to learn about some of Argentinas and other countries' history. You can also learn about the Antarctica control devision over time. There's a little gift shop. Be advised that the employees don't speak much English, but with the use of Google translate we got by pretty good.

Great display and if you go on National Flag Day (June 20), it will blow your mind as they unwrap the longest, continuous flag in the country.

A pretty stop when sightseeing. Beautiful panorama of the river and significant historical site. We stopped to rest on the stairs in the shade and enjoyed the view.

It is impressive. Much more so than the Oblisco in Buenos Aires. I wish you could enter and go to the top like you could years ago.

Nice place. Big park near by. You can go and sit for a long time. Nice view. Picnic area. Visit with your friends / family. River near the monument. Go for a walk. Lot of restaurants nearby.

Landmark in Rosario where every june 20th, the countrys presidente holds a ceremony in honour to the argentine national flag (light blue and white with a sun face in its middle). Espacious place with 24hs acces to walk or seat and enjoy the quietness and view of sorroundings. Buena oportunidad subirse hasta las punta del monumento y tener las vistas abiertas de la zona (20pesos adultos al 22 febrero 2020)

Beautiful monument. Worth the 20pesos to get to the top. Nice panoramic view of the city and Paraná river. It is the monument shows at the Argentina ten pesos money note.

The collection's design, encompassing avian, animal, and marine life exhibits, was truly exceptional. However, the $125 admission fee for two adults and one child was excessive, necessitating a four-star rating instead of five.

I really enjoyed this park! We bought tickets one day before through the internet (check promotions, there are many good offers). The territory of the park is big and there are many things to see. It feels like animals have good conditions and bigger spaces than in regular zoos. You can see some rare animals here, for example, bengal tigers, yaguarete, pumas. There are many food zones, toilets and playgrounds around the park. The only disturbing moment is people, which don’t follow the rules and don’t respect animals or other guests. Smoking, taking pictures with flash, screaming and climbing in prohibited areas - such a shame.

Beautiful place and animals, but there's still work to do. Some of the enclosures are missing the name of the animals and the park needs more cleaning. A park that looks abandoned is not a good park. It also needs some paint on the buildings thru the park. The employees are very nice overall and they have good security. The animals are amazing and unique! A clean park and good service will bring many more tourists from all over the countries!

We bought tickets in advance. Take a look at their website because there are a lot of promotional discounts. I'd suggest to get both tickets and parking in advance. The park is very tidy and taken care of. Animals have a lot of space to move 'freely' (well, yeap, this is a grey issue). The aquarium is very good! Lots of species, including sharks. The Bengal tigers were definitely my favorite. There are 2 of them and it is very fun to see them interact. You can also see flamingos, monkeys, pelicans, ostriches, lemurs, bats, pumas, and lots of other species. There are a variety of food places all across the park. Although there is a sign that you should not go in with food or beverages, no one controls anything. Moreover, pretty much everyone goes in with food and beverages. The whole visit may take between 3 and 5 hours, depending on your own regulation of speed (and lunch) Bathrooms are OK. Overall, it was a very fine day and experience. I'd recommend it, especially with children.

Spent there my sons birthday with family. Great experience. Very beautiful. Very inconvenient that the tickets can be purchased only online or by card. Cash is not accepted. And only fast food available in the park, so better take healthy snacks for kids with you.

It's a really nice zoo. Animals are well treated here and it usually has foundations that fight against animal trafficking. Some animals here are saved from this traffic. The bird park beside is also an excellent place to check out. It has several activities and is really worth visiting. Great for kids!!

We are animal lovers and quite critical about some zoos. After visiting most of them in the US and Europe, I must say we were very impressed with Tamiken. Everything looks great - from the sign when entering to the animals enclosures. We found the animals to be happy and active. They have large spaces to roam and be as close to nature as possible. The park itself is amazing, so nice and the themes and explanations are the best we ever saw. Very recommended!

Very average. Can no longer touch tigers and lions. Plus can't ride elephants or camels like you used to be able to. Gets 2 stars because the birds were very interesting and great experience, plus we stroked the camel and snake. The ground were poorly kept and animals were very sleepy. Very disappointed ☹️

For my kids it's great because they can touch and be up close to the animals, nice area to bring your own picnic also.

Contrary to the idea, the zoo is not a huge one... But the best thing about it is you can take pictures with tigers and Lions and can touch and feed other animals too... Overall a great experience indeed.

This is a very special place. Please note, it’s a short drive outside of the city and the other are purely ground. Unique experience in many ways. Argentinians get charged less, but remember, foreigners don’t pay 21% taxes when traveling within the country, so I would stop complaining.

Absolutely amazing zoo, one of the only zoos in the world that lets you enter the cages! Genuine pics... They have a huge collection of both South American and African animals, and you can get closer than anywhere else.

Animals do not seem to be well treated. Those that you can play look dumb and lazy (maybe doped). In general, the zoo is not in good shape. If you are planning to go to Buenos Aires, consider visiting the Temaiken Zoo.

I liked the place and the contacts with the animals... I thnink some of the places should be improved

Very good park with great attractions. The price is very honest and the location is perfect. The roller coaster 🎢 are so much good.

Fun Day! Food isn't allowed inside but you can keep it as there's locker facility is available. Rides were super fun. It was sunny day and water sprinklers were saviors!! There was waiting line at the entrance but it was fast so it takes usually like 10 mins.

It's a good place for kids to play all different games and activities. Teenagers can enjoy their time. In Tigre, the boat ride experience is good. And a lot shopping stolls.

What an absolute joke of a place. First of all: tickets are sold online & in person on the day. They have a functional website listing all their promotions & out of services rides. We traveled to the park on a Sunday 28/09/2025, 4 adults & 1 child, they had 3 rides out of order but the tickets to enter remained full price, supposedly they had a 3x2 tickets offer, which is an absolute joke as well- we paid for this promotion $65,600 ARG PESO cash for 2 adults & 1 child, their website states that the individual passport normally cost $28,700 plus service fee of roughly $6000 arg peso Long queue to purchase tickets, longer queue to enter & have your bags inspected as food & drinks are not permitted, you queue minimum of 90minutes to 2hrs for each game. We entered at 12pm & existed at 7pm but only managed to ride TWO games only, what an absolute joke & scam of locals hard earn money but also a sour taste for the tourist too (like myself) Different options available for food & drinks inside however all OVERPRICED & poor quality such as the empanadas we purchased- they listed a promotion of 3 empanadas plus 1 drink for $9500 ARG peso - total scam again! Toilets were clean & well maintained. Parking is available on the streets or paid parking too.

Cool place where you can have a lot of fun. I mean, maybe you’ll need a couple beers if you’re afraid of heights. Not so crowded.

A complete rip off! Main attractions have min 2h queue… average 2h 30min, up to 3h. Throwing money out of the window would be more fun.

The time stood still here. Outdated theme park from the 90’s. You see a lack of maintenance. During our visit often an attraction stopped working. The park clearly needs to be renovated. Waiting lines were ok, but the variety in attractions is sad. Not a theme park as you would expect. Restaurant is a throwback to the 80’s. Considering that the entrance ticket is expensive, you should expect more or at least a good maintenance.

A mixed bag, but more negatives than positives… ❌ Extremely overpriced unless you’re an Argentine citizen. There’s no free entry and it’s super expensive. ❌ The staff are some of the rudest least helpful people I’ve ever come across. ✅ It is an interesting place to look around, even though as a European most of the famous people were not famous to me. ❌ The state of some of the graves is disgusting, they are literally being used as rubbish dumps with empty paint cans and plastic bags dumped on top of coffins. I have no idea how they are spending the exorbitant entrance fees but it’s not on respecting the dead who are buried here.

I love visiting cemeteries when visiting large cities, as they give great insight into the history and culture of the people. This cemetery is spectacular. I joined an English guided tour with Victoria, who was engaging and funny, recounting both the stories and the folklore that had built up around some of the mausoleum. Absolutely fascinating. A great way to spend 2-3 hours.

This is a must visit spot but I recommend getting a local guide as it is all rather meaningless with proper explanations. The mausoleums are a walk through the history of Argentina and of course you can see its most famous inhabitant - Eva Peron though her mausoleum is one of the least impressive of the lot. We spent a couple of hours here with a guide that we hired at the entrance.

We visited the Recoleta Cemetery and were truly amazed by how fascinating and beautiful it is. We had never seen anything like it before! Every tomb and monument has its own unique style, and walking through feels like exploring an open-air museum full of history and art. The atmosphere is peaceful yet impressive, and we were incredibly impressed by the details and architecture throughout. Definitely a must-see when visiting Buenos Aires!

A really unique place and well worth a visit. It feels more like an open-air museum than a cemetery, with amazing sculptures, grand tombs, and a lot of history. Many well-known figures are buried here, and there is a mix of old and some surprisingly modern designs. Some parts are quite run down though. A few tombs have been left to crumble and look half-collapsed, which is a bit sad to see. The entry fee for foreigners is ARS 18,000 per person, which is pretty steep for Argentina. Hopefully that money is being used to help with maintenance. Still, a memorable spot and a must-see if you are in Buenos Aires.

The cemetery is beautiful and the idea is great, but that there are different prices for equal humans is racist. The price for "foreigner" is 4x times higher then the normal price. Lots of construction with lots of yellow barks everywhere... Lots of rubbish in the Graves and around... Maybe someone should clean it for this entry fees. Bring lots of cash, cause they just accept cardpayment.... Which isn't progressive cause the ones from Europe don't work...

Recoleta Cemetery is a must-visit in Buenos Aires, offering a fascinating mix of history, art, and architecture. The elaborate mausoleums and intricate sculptures make it feel like an open-air museum rather than just a cemetery. It’s the final resting place of many notable figures, including Eva Perón, which adds to its historical significance. The entrance fee is around $17, which feels a bit steep for a cemetery, but if you appreciate history and architecture, it’s worth it. The layout is like a maze, so I’d recommend using a map or joining a guided tour to fully appreciate the stories behind the tombs. Overall, it’s a unique and hauntingly beautiful place, but the high entrance fee and occasional crowds knock it down a star.

4⭐️ for the building, 5🌟 for concert performance of I Puritani, 2⭐️ for the producers who reduced a great opera to a concert 👎👎👎 Indeed it is a very very very poor decision for reducing an Opera to a concert, no matter how good the orchestra and chorus are. AT THE PRICE CHARGED, BUENOS AIRES DESERVE A FULL OPERA!!!! Janet Pratt, who sang Elvira, is an OUTSTANDING OPERA SOPRANO 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗. She managed to act despite the concert setting. SHE IS ALSO VERY EMOTIVE IN HER SINGING…. WOW 👏👏👏👏👏 IT IS TOO BAD, Teatro Colon stifled / MUTED HER TALENT by this concert concept to showcase an opera…..REALLY REALLY BAD DECISION. 🏛️ Buenos Aires’ Teatro Colon is indeed one of the great opera houses in the world. .*** The building is a unique Ecclectic-Neoclassical architecture built at the turn of the 20th century. *** Acoustics is fantastic, the stage is large, the theatre is well designed. ISSUES: 👎 the boxes, meant for 4, is cramped with 6 seats 👎👎👎 the restrooms are very small, they need serious updating

Visited here as part of a guided tour. There aren’t many tours in English, and their timings didn’t suit my tight schedule, so I opted for a tour in Spanish. Although I couldn’t fully understand the narrative, I fully appreciated the stunning architecture, stained glass, statues etc. Everyone talks about the amazing acoustics, so the tour left me wanting to return to see a performance.

Buenos Aires's Teatro Colón is arguably the world's most spectacular opera house, offering an experience that transcends mere performance. Stepping inside, one is immediately enveloped by the stunning, opulent architecture - a lavish blend of Baroque, Renaissance, and academic styles featuring rich velvet, gold leaf, and vibrant frescoes that transport visitors to a bygone era of grandeur. However, the true marvel lies in its legendary acoustics, scientifically proven to be among the five best globally, ensuring that every note, from the softest whisper to the most powerful crescendo, reaches the audience with flawless clarity and balance. Attending any event here, whether opera, ballet, or classical concert, is a profoundly moving cultural rite that confirms the Colón's status as a beacon of artistic excellence and historical splendor.

Great experience for the theater built in 1908. I do recommend the tour if you have 1 hour to spend. It's a nice mix of history and time for taking pictures of different areas of the theater. This includes going into one of the balconies as well. I suggest purchasing tickets in advance. We walked up and had to get tickets that were for 2 hours later.

Absolutely breathtaking! The Teatro Colón is one of the most beautiful theaters I’ve ever visited. I saw the ballet Onegin here, and it was a truly unforgettable experience - stunning performance, perfect acoustics, and an incredible atmosphere. The audience was so passionate and emotional - I’ve never seen anything like it in any other country. A magical evening in Buenos Aires!

This Theatre by far stands as one of the best architecture art in the world. The theatre is even better than that of Garnier Palace, of Paris in my opinion. From seating, to classic environment, acoustics and the artistic architecture of the stage and the balconies. The sealing is another wonder and the atmosphere was amazing. I would definitely put this one as one of the best and most beautiful theatre and definitely stands as one of the top 3 theaters in the

The english guided tour is hard to book from their official online site. So my wife and I just went to the theater to try our luck second time this morning, we got our tickets over the ticket office. I had my doubt since I had been in couple of top opera houses in Vienna, but It was worth it. The internal decor is fine with baroque style since there are architect from France. The present Colón replaced an original theatre which opened in 1857. During the tour we had chance to hear female soprano rehearsal for 5 minutes which is huge bonus as I see it, then I could hear clearly pure and beautiful sound at back of the theater. I really wish I could have a chance to listen to a real opera here.

Nice oldie worldie feel about it. Good just to walk about and have a cup of tea. Great sunset photos.

The town was very nice. Close to wineries, although I wasn't able to fit that in. It is more for couples and families then it is for nightlife. Quiet and relaxing. One or two days is all you need.

If you want to get a nice picture for the entire town, you have to get up there, and I am calling it the "Million Dollars View". The stairs are very steep, and they don't allow people wearing sandals in for safety reasons.

🏛️🏛️🏛️ A HISTORICAL LANDMARK. The lighthouse is the most prominent structure within the walled fort of Colonia del Sacramento. Built in the 1850s on the ruins of nunnery. The beacon of the lighthouse has been a guide to ships in the estuary of Rio Plata.

Walking through the cobblestone streets of Colonia del Sacramento feels like stepping into a time capsule. Every stone, every colonial facade, every old lantern seems to whisper stories of sailors, merchants, and cultures that crossed paths in this corner of Uruguay. And right in the heart of it all stands the lighthouse. The Colonia Lighthouse rises above the ruins of the old San Francisco Xavier convent, and from the top, you get a sweeping view of the city embracing the Rio de la plata river But the real magic isn’t just the lighthouse. It’s the walk. Heading downhill from the historic center toward the river, surrounded by whitewashed walls, blooming bougainvillea, and uneven stones, you feel something deeper. There’s a quiet energy, almost spiritual. The Río de la Plata appears at the end like a vast mirror, and you feel small but full. Recommendation: Take the walk in the late afternoon, when the sun begins to dip. The golden light on the stones and the river creates a magical atmosphere. And if you can, climb the lighthouse just before sunset. It’s a postcard moment you won’t forget.

Cool lighthouse 💡🏠 to stop by briefly. It looked really cool with the blue 🔵 sky and birds 🐦 flying in the background. Unfortunately, it was closed ⛔ when we went so we couldn't see the inside of it.

Nice old colonial town, there are a lot of bars and restaurants, you can climb the lighthouse, walk the original streets and spend easily half a day waiting perhaps for the ferry to Buenos Aires. The old town is situated just a few blocks away from the ferry and bus terminal.

The catedral is really nice and is open for everybody. If you want to visit the museo and the tower it costs 10$ per adult. The museum is underneath the church and they even have a small gift shop. The fime when I visited only the Jesus tower was open for visitors. You can go to two floors. With an elevator where a guy tells you important historical facts about the Catedral de la Plata. The view from the top floor over La Plata is nice.

Very beautiful church - really huge and located in a nice area of La Plata. Visitors should definitely add this as number 1 priority if they are visiting the city. Both the internal and external areas are incredible and the church js located jn a very nice area, with a park and lots of people.

Worth your visit to La Plata. To sit down and enjoy the silence. Enjoy beautiful architecture.

This cathedral is beautiful and worth touring. Don't forget about the museum and crypt either. It's amazing detail is just stunning to see in person. Photos do not do it justice.

such a historical and beautiful place to visit. I highly recommend to go into the museum and to use the elevator that shows you such a great view from the top of the catedral

Outstanding beautiful cathedral. Totally worth the visit

You don't expect this kind of architecture in South America and you definitely don't expect a Cathedral with this level of detail to be made of brick. The design was incredible and the history behind the building is unique as well. The interior is just as grand as the exterior and has a holy aura to it. Definitely worth stopping in for a minimum of 30 minutes. The stain glass alone is worth it
