Highly recommend. We drove there from Salta. The drive alone was worth the trip. The salt flats were indescribable. There is a small indigenous demonstration just outside the area. Our indigenous tour guide was wonderful. Small lunch of coke and empanadas available too otherwise no food between Salta and here really. Bathrooms cost $.

The drive was amazing. We went via San Antonio de los Cobres Which seemed less traveled and was an adventure! Would highly recommend you consider and investigate this route. The salt flats where good but not great. Had a lovely lunch from a little old man selling homemade empanadas and ham and cheese tortillas, all cooked on his BBQ right there in the carpark.

We arrived here @ 6:30pm, the tourist office closes @ 6pm - so need to arrive early if you want to do the tours. You can walk on the salts next to the tourist centre area. Near the central tourist area huts - you can see some water pools - so would recommend stopping there instead of at the first one. Salt flats were enormous, make for great photos and the water salt pools looks amazing. Driving from purmamarca to salinas grandes gets tricky with lots of switchbacks, so need to be alert and careful - also allows possibilities of driving high into the clouds.
