Quebrada de Humahuaca: What to see in the surroundings?
Quebrada de Humahuaca is a deep canyon in the province of Jujuy, in the north west of Argentina. Quebrada's fantastically coloured landscapes are a UNESCO World Heritage site. Wonderful.
My suggestion
Rent a car in Salta and go off for 3 or 4 days adventure in Quebrada. That way you will be free to come and go as you want, especially as the distances between each stopping place are long.

My suggestion
A visit to Quebrada de Humahuaca can be done as a day excursion rather than an extended stay. However, I recommend you go to the region, especially to Tilcara, to enjoy the scenery.
