Description
We continue to Barreal, a charming mountain setting, where we'll discover the immensity of the El Leoncito Pampa and the unspoiled beauty of El Leoncito National Park. It is home to two of the most important astronomical centers in the Cuyo region: the CASLEO Observatory, part of CONICET (National Council of Tourism), and the CESCO Observatory, part of the National University of San Juan.
The tour culminates in the town of Calingasta, where its historic town center and the moving Cristo de la Misericordia (Christ of Mercy) await us, from where you can enjoy dreamy panoramic views. We return to San Juan in the afternoon, our hearts filled with unforgettable landscapes and experiences.

Muito felizes com a escolha. Quebrada justifica acordar cedo. O transporte de ida e volta da cidade de San Juan foi bem pensado. Se voltarmos a San Juan, repetimos.

Vale cada centavo
Muy contentos con la elección. Muy buen detalle que incluyera refrigerio a bordo. Nos quedamos sin palabras en Calingasta. Por el precio que pagamos, la verdad que rinde muchísimo. Gracias por el día que nos hicieron pasar.

Impecable
Justo lo que buscábamos. Si te gusta la fotografía, llevá batería de sobra. El guía contaba historias que no están en ninguna guía de viaje. Cinco estrellas bien merecidas.

Delivers and more
Faultless, honestly. I have never seen anything like Argentina's. Much appreciated that roundtrip transportation from San Juan is included. The return time was kept to the minute. An experience worth every minute.

De lo mejor que hicimos en el viaje. Buena logística, se ve que lo hacen todos los días. Vale madrugar, el paisaje a esa hora es otra cosa. Para lo que incluye, el precio es más que razonable. Cinco estrellas bien merecidas.

Ideal para conocer la ciudad
Nada que reprochar, todo salió como estaba planteado. El guía fue un capítulo aparte: sabía muchísimo y contestó todas nuestras preguntas. Lo de refrigerio a bordo estuvo muy bien pensado. Todo el trámite fue digital, no tuvimos que imprimir nada. El día que fuimos había mucho viento y eso acortó una parada. No lo dudes, reservalo.
