Tourist Bus around Salta

There are always new alternatives to see beautiful Salta. In this case, a very original choice: Bus Turístico Salta lets tourists go on and off the vehicle as many times as they want.

BTS, as this original service became popularly known, is a new way of touring around the City of Salta in a very independent fashion.

Created both for visitors and locals, this bus service with its own stops and circuits lets passengers decide when to go on and off the bus.

Looking Inside and Outside

In addition to touring around the city in a different way, this new service lets passengers watch the various attractions in the province in modern LCD screens that are a part of the bus interior.

“It is incredible to see how different the city may look, much more open and relaxed than any other city tour. First I thought I should not get on, but when I heard those who had already taken the bus, I felt curious and here I am”, said Gregorio Lafuente, a neighbor from Salta that has already gone around the most important sites tourists come along to see.

These include Belgrano Square, where Stop 1 is located. Other interesting sites follow one another in the circuit.

One Stop More, One Stop Less

Some of the “stops” where visitors can choose to go on or off the bus are Balcarce, Batalla de Salta, Palacio Legislativo, Catedral, Convento, Monumento a Quemes, Virrey, Portezuelo, Parque San Martín, La Viña, Paseo de los Poetas, Mercado Artesanal and Cabildo.

As it usually happens with new products, it is the users themselves who have the last word and give this young undertaking a new way of being incorporated in the market.

And it is them precisely who have been charmed with the Portezuelo stop, which features a spectacular and unique view of the entire city.

A Luxury Typical from Salta

According to authorities, it is a 12-hour service that enables passengers to make their own itinerary, which may be previously obtained at any of the multiple outlets offering the service.

“I never thought this was possible. I was fascinated with the Train to the Clouds but I never thought that there was such an excellent service in the city. The drivers are very polite and the conditions of the vehicles are outstanding” explained Amalia, who indulged herself by getting off and on at almost all the stops of the circuit.

Innovative from all points of view, Salta keeps surprising us. Its Train to the Clouds, its 4WD tours that take visitors down to impossible destinations and now its tourist bus known as Bus Salteño Turístico give clear proof that what man invents may perfectly harmonize with nature. We just need to do things right.
