Driving in Jujuy Province

Exploring Jujuy by car is the ultimate way to soak in the stunning scenery and enjoy the picturesque attractions at your own pace.

Driving Rules

Driving in Jujuy is on the right-hand side of the road which may be a change for Brits. Seat belts are mandatory and so are child safety seats for kids under four years old.

Car Class Recommendations

Given the mountainous nature of the terrain in Jujuy, an SUV or 4x4 is highly recommended. These car classes offer better traction and handling on the region's steep and winding roads.

Must-visit Attractions

• Purmamarca: Home to the iconic Cerro de los Siete Colores (Hill of the Seven Colours) it's a must-visit spot.
• Salinas Grandes: This salt flat is one of the largest in the world and a photo stop here is essential.
• Quebrada de Humahuaca: This colourful valley is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a nature lover's paradise.

Climate

The climate in Jujuy is generally warm and dry, with winter months (June to August) being slightly cooler. But remember, British summer starts in June when Argentina is in Winter!

Local Currency

The currency in Argentina is the Argentine Peso (ARS). Credit and debit cards are widely accepted in major cities but make sure to have cash handy when exploring rural areas.

Seasonal Events

Each year in February, the locals celebrate Carnival with colourful parades and traditional music. Prepare to immerse yourself in a whirlwind of culture and delight.

Fascinating Landscapes

From the unique multicoloured mountains to the vast salt flats and high-altitude vineyards, the landscapes of Jujuy are nothing short of breathtaking. And with your rented car, these picturesque views are just a drive away.

So, fasten your seatbelts, stow your luggage, and prepare for an unforgettable journey exploring the many wonders of Jujuy Province.
