          Awe inspiring trip.
          This was one of the best trips that I have done to date. We were picked up at our Airbnb by our wonderful guide Roberto and, after picking up ten more people, we set off for the Brazilian side of the falls. This side provides a fantastic view of all the waterfalls. We had cleverly arrived early so it was a pleasant walk with great photo opportunities. After two hours there we were taken back to the Argentinian side starting with lunch. We opted for a boat ride which raced to the foot of the waterfalls and then we were drenched by going right into two of the falls - be prepared!! A train ride and a walk took us to the top of The Devil’s Throat which gave us a fantastic view as the waterfall dropped. We had a succession of awe inspiring sights and sounds, supported by Roberto’s knowledge and organisational skills that meant everything went very smoothly. Thanks to him. It is worth noting that there were a lot of extra costs, which we felt were worth it, but mounted up to about £125 for entry to both parks, lunch and the optional boat ride. This is supposed to be much better than Niagra and I believe it.

          Just beautiful
          Very stunning sight. Vast rivers, vast waterfalls, such power in the water. Really beautiful experience. You will get wet by the Devils throat but can get fab pictures. We saw turtles, cappaburra, toucan, monkeys and coatis

          Excellent and Comprehensive Tour
          The pacing, and coordination of this tour of both sides of the Falls, could not have been executed better, for a full day outing. The guide for the day, Roberto, was keen to everyone’s circumstances, and highly knowledgeable about everything at hand. Communication from this outfit was also comprehensive, and excellent, like the tour itself. Truly memorable.

          Excellent guide, fabulous scenery
          The Falls are simply spectacular, and our guide, Joao, ensured we didn't miss anything. We saw so many things and different stops, on and off, and Joao always made sure we moved promptly when necessary and knew what was happening next. And explained everything well, in his good English. Went abive and beyond for each of us. Couldn't recommend this tour or this guide more.

          Once in a lifetime experience
          Roberto Enrique Stiuv was an amazing guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and a great communicator. He told us about the history and the geology of the park and the falls, and much more. The view of the falls is amazing - we watched it from both, the Brazilian and the Argentinian side. Well worth the money.

          Would recommend
          Nice way to see the falls on both sides. I think the tour is typical, but well thought out about how to do it efficiently, in an order that gives flexibility, avoids the peak of the crowds and with increasing more wow views. Our guide was great (I wish I remember his name) knowing about local plants and animals along the way.

          Good Tour but with Hidden Fees
          This was a good tour, but just be prepared to spend at least up to $200 USD EXTRA per person. With this tour, you’re essentially paying $100 USD for a ride to the falls and a guide to walk with you through the park. One could probably navigate without a guide, but it’s nice to have someone point out the highlights. During the tour, you will not go through every single trail, just the highlights! If you want to do the boat ride (Brazil side) it’s an additional $80 USD, the entrance fee for Iguazu on the Brazilian side is $20 USD (117 reals) Argentina side is $42 USD (45,000 Argentine Pesos); $1 tourism fee for Argentina, and lunch is anywhere from $20 - $50 USD per person depending on where you go. The buffet starts at 149 reals +tax and does not include drinks (water/juice/soda, etc.) I’d recommend skipping it altogether.

          The falls
          Very convenient way to see both sides of the falls. You still have to pay park entrance fees on both sides, but they take you door to door and handle the border crossings. The falls are amazing and worth seeing from both sides.

          Wondeerful visit to Iguazu Falls
          Our guide Roberto was great. Highly recommended. Was great to see both Brazil’s den Argentina side of the falls in one day… Only issue I had was the price we paid through Trip Advisot / Viator was about 1/3rd higher for the exact same tour.

          Experience was awesome
          Absolutely fantastic experience. Excellent planning throughout the day. Our tour guide was excellent, friendly and made sure we had plenty of toilet stops. Boat ride on Argentina side is once in a lifetime experience, don't miss out. Change into swimwear if you can as everyone is soaked through, even with waterproof jackets. Buy your tickets gor Argentina side on line before you go. Get brazil side with credit card when you get there, very easy. Take passports as you travel through customs both ways. Bit of a wait there but not too bad. Buy a waterproof cover for your phone.

          What a fantastic day!
          I highly recommend this tour. It was an incredible way to see these awe inspiring Falls. We were lucky to have a small group (6 people total). Our guide (Henrique) and driver were exceptional. If you have the opportunity to choose between the boat trip on the Argentina side (rather than the Brazil side) choose it! It was the BEST part of the day.

          An Excellent Day Trip
          This was an excellent day trip! We visited many sites on both the Brazilian and Argentine sides, took a boat ride, and had a quick lunch. We had plenty of time at each place we visited. Our guide, Lurdes was wonderful! She was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and calm, always greeting us with a beautiful smile. She expertly managed our schedule to help us avoid long lines, especially at the border crossing. She walked with us the entire time, took photos for us, and genuinely cared for our group. Our driver, Lucas, was also excellent—friendly, polite, and helpful. We had a great group of nine people, and everyone was friendly. We all had a fantastic time. I highly recommend this tour!

          Comprehensive and Memorable Full-Day Tour
          Our full-day tour of Iguazu Falls, covering both the Brazilian and Argentinian sides, was a fantastic experience. My family and I took two days total to spend some time viewing the falls from both ends. The guide was knowledgeable, and the scenery was simply stunning. This tour is perfect for those who want to see it all in one day.

        It was a wonderful trip to the Argentinan side of the Iguazu Falls. The pick up was on time and the trip was very well organised. Antonio, our guide was very cheerful and helpful. He ensured our safety throughout the trip. Like other reviews said he is knowledgible and gave us interesting facts about the Iguazu Falls and the animals living there. It wasn’t too crowded on the Argentinan side and we had sufficient time to take photos and enjoyed ourselves. Devil’s Throat is definitely breath taking! It’s truly a memorable trip and I’d recommend this tour to my friends and family visiting Brazil/Argentina. Muito obrigada!

        The pick up was on time. The bus was comfortable. The guide was able, kept everything under control, trying to please everyone; pleasant demanour. Most of the day went by waiting at the border and queing up for almost anything else. Horribly crowded. It was even hard to get a good glimpse of the beautiful waterfalls. Drop off at the hotel.

        We bought full day trip to Argentinian iguazu fall. The trip was suppose to include the return transfer from Foz do Iguazu (Brazil), garganta del diablo, lower and upper circuts. Apart from both of us there was an older lady 67years old). When we reached the bridge to the garganta del diablo we said yo our guide that we will go faster to spend there more time so she( our guide) can go slower with the older lady. Our guide agreed and said she would be waiting for us. When we came back we waited 1 hour fir the guide and as we could not get any wifi to write to our guide we decided to go to lower circut were we immediately called the agency asking where is our guide. We thought that something had happed to the older lady. To start with no one spoke English or Spanish do it was difficult to communicate. We said were we are and asked where is the guide and we were she is at the exit of the park it was around noon so half a day of our trip. We went only to lower circut as we were afraid we would run out of our time. When we went to the exit (we still had time till the end of our trip) we searched for our guide, for the car ...our guide left without trying to call us or make sure someone else would take us back to Brazil. She took also the money for the tourist tax. We found wifi and wrote her were she was but she replied that she waited for us 1 hour but the older lady was tired so SHE LEFT. After that she switched of her whats up. We were very stressed and we called again the agency and waited 1,5 hours for another guide who finished full day trip with other customer and went with them back to Brazil. Please be aware as this was a serious negligence of safety. Something might have happened to us but the guide which we paid for did not bother to take care our safety, did not tried to call us to make sure we are ok, left us in the foreign country without help. We asked for the refund but we were informed that we can get 25£ discount for the next trip which we will never book again. Just the calls we made on roaming in Argentina would be much more than 25 pounds. Unfortunately we will not get any refund hence we would like to warn everyone so nobody will experience what we have had.

        Dear LuigidX9631ZV, Thank you for your review. The guide advised that you decide to move away from the group to do more instead of going along with the guide and the shared group. She advised against it due to the chance of a Mismatch, but as you preferred to go ahead, she settled a meeting point and a time and you missed that time to be there. She waited but eventually had to continue with the tour. When we received your call, we advised where the guide us, but instead of meeting with the guide you chose to to another part of the Park. We then arranged for you to come back with another guide and group. Unfortunately with you missing the time to meet at the schedule place and having preferred to extend your visit rather than meet with the guide when you made contact with us, made it impossible for the guide to stay endlessly waiting. Ideally when doing a shared group you should always be at your guide or at least meet the group at the scheduled time and place. Thank you. Pedro Malta on behalf of Diogo M.

        We had a fantastic trip to the Argentina side of the falls. Our guide Eli was great throughout- she picked us up on time, and dealt with the border crossing and the timings of each section of the park so we could just enjoy the beautiful falls.

The guide was on time with everything, knew the best way to experience the falls to avoid the crowds and the blazing sun. I really enjoyed both days, the falls will blow you away!! Highly recommend adding the boat trip, it was 100% worth it!!

        A well-planned trip. Great experience. I was picked up on time, and everything else on the itinerary, in spite of the many different "moving parts" was executed smoothly and professionally. The only thing I would have changed was the amount of information shared regarding the history of the place, but in the end, this is something that one can easily read about independently. I took the combined trip to both sides and also thought that a little more info on how lunch worked on the Brazilian side should have been offered. But everything regarding the tour itself was great - just the right amount of walking, just the right amount of time at various locations, just the right balance to give you a good experience and a feel for the place. I have to point out that the weather, the border crossing, and the size of the group can change all of this easily, so a certain amount of luck is mixed in. The guide was great. Do I wish he had better English - yes, but it was manageable, and to my surprise, English speaking turned out to be a problem in Brazil in general. It appears to be a chauvinistic issue - Brazil being friends with China, Russia and India, does not put her in the best of company this way. Even flights and airports there do not have announcements in English, so I was happy to get a guide who might not have spoken perfectly, but managed to communicate the basics.Overall, 5 stars.
