Thank you Juan, for an interesting tour, with a good walk around San Telmo that you know and love so well. You had a good balance of facts, history and good pointers about a hat shop, record store, Parrilla restaurant and bars. Your size of tour was perfect- not too large and that gave us time to talk together over the wonderful cold beer and treats.

I Do not recommend this company I did a pre-planned day trip of Argentina. It was arranged they pick me up from nearby hotel. I msg to confirm and they changed the plans and I had to meet there which wasn’t Easy to find. I attempted many times to contact them via the phone numbers they provided and concierge also attempted, but they never responded. Then I only got half the tour. Try other more reliable and reputable companies.

Recognized worldwide, the Iguazu Falls is considered to be one of the most impressive natural beauties on Earth. With more than 200 falls reaching heights of 200 feet (60 mts), the power, size and sheer noise of Iguazu are simply breathtaking. They are surrounded by a subtropical rainforest with lush vegetation where you will have many opportunities to see birds such as toucans, tanagers, parrots, and other species. The walkways that cross different parts of the 210 square mile reserve allow you to walk and observe the forest and falls from different points of view. This Argentinian wonder is not to be missed! With this private tour, you will have the flexibility to discover one of the seven wonders of the world at your own pace accompanied by a specialist local guide.

This National Park is AMAZING. The Iguazu National Park is the #1 atraction in Argentina. This is a must visit site, We started the day with the speed boat tour and of course expect to get wet as you see the diferent sides of the waterfalls from the Argentina side. Our first trail was to the Devils throat or Garganta del Diablo this view is by far the most awesome of all. Our second trail was the lower circuit were you will see 6 smaller but just as beautiful waterfalls. Wear comfortable clothes and be prepared to walk. This is nature at it's best

This must see 6-hour tour affords a spectacular view of Iguassu Falls from the Argentinian side of the border. A different view from the other side of the border paints this marvelous natural beauty in a different exciting way. Find a great perspective of the Garganta do Diabo waterfall, the biggest waterfall in the park. Drive through the jungle and hike a trail that leads to the waterfalls and a boat ride. This is everything you could want in an adventure tour.

Exclusions: Food and Beverages, Iguassu National Park Entrance Fee

The both sides iguassu falls tour is a must. The falls where absolutely incredible and each side gives a different experience. Big shout out to Silvana who was an amazing guide. Our pick up was on time and we headed first to the Argentinian side of the falls. On the Argentinian side there is lots of walking so make sure to wear comfortable shoes. You view the falls from above looking downwards. At this location there is lots of wildlife to see. Silvana was very informative and gave us lots of information about the falls during stops. After this we headed to the Brazilian side of the falls. From this side you see the falls from below. On this part of the tour you can opt to walk around the viewpoints or for an extra cost take a boat tour into the falls (dry or wet) and rappelling. We decided to take the wet boat tour which I would highly recommend. You get to see the falls from a totally different perspective and after all the walking from the Argentinian side it was fun to have a different experience. Also if you do opt to take the wet tour, bare in mind you go right under a waterfall and you get completely head to toe drenched and your belongings so take precautions ! Just some tips if you decide to take this tour - it’s a good idea to take some snacks, the day is very long with lots of walking, and as you’re doing both sides in one day there is not much time to stop to eat - totally worth the hunger but maybe take snacks. Wear comfy shoes as I said, there is lots of walking. Take plenty of money as the tour doesn’t include the entrance fees to the Argentinian side, Brazilian side and take money for food, boat tours or souvenirs. Finally I want to say a big thank you to Silvana, who was attentive, professional, kind and informative. She really kept the day smooth and was such a nice, friendly person. So thank you very much for giving us an amazing day. Totally recommend this tour to anyone visiting Iguaçu.

It is worth the early start of arriving at the station about 6.30am to transfer your voucher to your ticket and board the bus 'train' that takes you to San Antonion de whatever town through really interesting scenery, with stops on route and snacks. The train ride itself is well organised and passes again through really interesting scenery finally ending up going over the La Polvorilla Viaduct. After this the train reverses and again well organised everyone swaps sides on the train so you get a different view on the way back after the half hour stop at the viaduct and Andean vendors. I really enjoyed the day but be prepared for a long day, worth it for the scenery in my opinion.

It is all very nice but the best is Pumamarca. Spare a couple of days to stay there and explore and enjoy that amaizing place. El Tren de la Nubes was a deception. Very good organization but they don’t have a policy to return the money to somebody who gave a 3 days in advance cancelation. You will not enter the clouds, it’s just a name and crossing a 150 feet bridge is ........
