Are remote desert areas in northwest Argentina suitable for families or only for experienced travelers?

Remote areas of northwest Argentina’s high desert are better suited to experienced travelers because of the high altitude, long distances, and limited infrastructure. Families can still enjoy more accessible destinations such as Salinas Grandes and Purmamarca, where visitor facilities and transportation are easier to arrange. Guided tours are often a practical choice for families, as they simplify logistics, provide local knowledge, and offer additional support when traveling through high-altitude landscapes.
