“Very enjoyable boat ride. Cost of trip was relatively expensive compared to the other private tour we did of the Brazil side of the falls plus Itapu dam and bird park the previous day. Also trip details did not specify you needed cash for Argentine tourist tax so that came as a surprise.”

“We had the most amazing experience with Edi our guide who was the highlight of our day trip. He effortlessly went from English to Spanish as there were four of us and two spoke English and two spoke Spanish. I would highly recommend this tour and want to thank edi for such a quality experience. Leading up to the trip the communication was fantastic and we were well prepared for the day. 100% would book again”
Review of Iguazú Falls from Puerto Iguazú, with Devil's Throat, jungle truck ride, rapids, and a boat approach to the falls.
“Esta excursión fatal. Es una estafa. El proveedor del lugar no responde. Nunca me recogieron en el punto de recogida señalado. Nunca se pusieron en contacto conmigo ni responden los correos electrónicos ni los mensajes. Me cobraron muchísimo dinero 390 USD por 3 personas. Y EN CATARATAS DE IGUAZÚ NADIE LOS CONOCE Y EL MISMO TOUR POR PERSONA CUESTA 60 dólares.”
Review of a Buenos Aires day trip to Iguazú Falls with flights, guided trails, Devil’s Throat, lunch, and a thrilling boat ride.
“Having limited time to explore Argentina, the option of a day trip to Iguazú Falls suited us perfectly. There was no fault at all in the communication from the company providing the excursion. The guide (Mateo) who accompanied us for the National Park tour was excellent - passionate about his job and eager to share his extensive knowledge. Be prepared tho’ for a long day - air flights are the only way it can be achieved in one day. Thoroughly recommended!”

“This was an excellent experience! Our tour guide Cris was amazing! She led us through the experience in a calm and organized manor. She took care of getting the boat ride arranged as well as obtaining the tickets for the boat. She let us have the time we wanted at various stops. She didn’t push. She was knowledgeable and loves the falls and her job! It shows! Myself, my husband, and our adult son have wanted to have this experience for years! It was everything we hoped for and more!”
Review of the Iguazu Falls Gran Aventura boat tour from Foz do Iguaçu, with park walks, jungle transport, costs, tips, and drawbacks.
“Não podemos fazer o passeio de barco Gran Aventura com o filho mais novo porque tem 11 anos (faz 12 no dia 3) e o programa apenas indica que é não recomendável a menores de 12, não indica que é interdito. Obrigou a que a minha mulher ficasse com o filho e não usámos 2 passeios de barco para os quais gostaríamos de ver o valor devolvido. Não informaram que o passeio a pé à Garganta do Diabo está fechado desde Outubro 2023. No final tivemos uma paragem de 1h10m num centro comercial que não está no programa e dispensávamos”
