San Salvador de Jujuy

"I'll be honest. There isn't much here, and I don't recommend it. There is a river that runs through town which is nice. There is also an airport, so it can be a good option when arriving to the area instead of Salta. Other than that, the town feels a bit depressing. I wouldn't waste my time here. There are better places to see in the area. Where I stayed: Club Hostel Jujuy info@clubhosteljujuy.com.ar Whatsapp: +54 9 388 477 2233 03884 237565 Price: 3300 pesos/night (private room w/ bathroom) RATING: 2/5 – Dirty, mold, cold, terrible wifi, can use kitchen, breakfast not included TRANSPORTATION: San Salvador de Jujuy to Purmamarca You can head back to the terminal on the outside of town to catch a bus to Purmamarca, OR you can take a shared taxi. Apparently the shared taxi is only a couple hundred extra pesos above the bus price. But it will cost around 300 pesos just to get to the station from town. I opted for the shared taxi option. Head to the “Terminal Viejo” in Jujuy town center. In front of the “Vieja Terminal Shopping Mall” there are several private cars parked. Just after the elevator. Just ask one of the men where the cars for Purmamarca are. Once you find a driver headed that way, you just have to wait a few minutes for the car to fill up. In my case it took less than 5 minutes. Once he had 4 passengers, we were off. PRICE: 600 pesos ($3 usd) TIME: 1 hour"
