What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise the Teleférico Salta for its breathtaking panoramic views of the city, especially during sunset. The ride is described as smooth and enjoyable, with the gardens and waterfalls at the summit adding to the charm. While prices are generally fair, some note that summit cafes and shops are pricier than expected.
"A must visit when exploring the city of Salta!
A fun aerial tram that takes you to the top of the San Bernardo hill. The views of the San Bernardo hill are amazing. I would recommend visiting on a clear day to have beautiful sights of the city of Salta. Visiting the hill top of San Bernardo is also available via car. Yet it is much faster and better experience through the aerial tram.
At the top of the arial tram there are various gift shops and cafes. I recommend bringing a picnic basket to spend lunch on the grass or other seating areas to take in the scenery.
Tram prices are were ok for out of town guest. Residents of Salta have a 50% discount. Prices for the cafe and shops at the hill are a bit more expensive than what you could get at the base. There is also a small cafe at the base of the aerial tram which also sells to-go lunch bags.
Service was friendly. The aerial trams were clean and seemed to be well maintained. Smooth ride all the way to the top."

"Not recommend if you are afraid of bights. The trip takes around 10 minutes with amazing city views. Up there there is a short walk and some sign to take some pictures
There are small Knick knacks shops and to buy food.
Kids under 5 are free
I recommend taking a cable car with wide open windows, specially in hot days as they don’t have air conditioning. It change your experience"

"You can access by cable cart, by car or by foot (a very long walk). On top you will enjoy beautiful gardens an artificial system of waterfalls and a spectacular view of the city. Restrooms are clean. A few handicraft shops a convenience store and a café for a quick bite. I spent 2 hours talking pictures, enjoying the view and an espresso."
