Yes. Combining both sites makes for a full but rewarding day, with several hours of driving through changing scenery and altitude. A private transfer lets you set your own pace, add or skip stops along the route, and avoid waiting on a fixed group tour schedule while covering this much ground.
Salinas Grandes lies about 131 km (81 miles) from San Salvador de Jujuy, reached by climbing the Cuesta de Lipán mountain pass to an elevation above 4,000 meters. The payoff is a stark white salt desert stretching to the horizon, a striking contrast to the deep red and ochre mountains you pass along the way.
Purmamarca is about 65 km (40 miles) away, roughly an hour by private transfer along Route 9. The village sits at the base of the Hill of Seven Colors, a striped mountainside formed by layers of mineral-rich sediment, and its craft market is a popular stop before continuing deeper into the valley.
The route climbs to high Andean altitude and includes stretches of mountain switchbacks, so a private vehicle with a driver who knows the road offers a steadier, more relaxed ride than a crowded bus. It also makes it easy to pause for photos, fresh air, or a short rest if you feel the elevation change.
The Quebrada de Humahuaca is a long Andean valley recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage cultural landscape for its centuries-old trade route, adobe villages, and dramatic painted cliffs. Tilcara, about 90 km (56 miles) from San Salvador de Jujuy, is one of the valley's best-known stops, home to a restored pre-Inca hilltop fortress (pukara) with sweeping views of the surrounding peaks.
The city sits at the entrance to the Quebrada de Humahuaca, a UNESCO-listed valley of multicolored rock formations, colonial villages, and Andean culture. From here, a private transfer puts Purmamarca, Tilcara, and the Salinas Grandes salt flats within a single day's reach, so you can experience the region's highlights without committing to a multi-day trip.
