Fabulous day at the falls

We had an amazing day at the falls, both sides but we couldn’t have done it without Cristian. He is a fantastic tour guide. He collected us from our hotel at 7am which was So worthwhile as we were the first people at the devil’s throat. Every detail of the day was so well planned and we’d time to stop for coffee and lunch. I would 100% recommend CAFalls tours and Cristian is the expert.

Wonderful experience..never felt rushed..

What a great experience with our tour guide Douglas..he was very knowledgeable about the timing and pace of our tour. We experienced the Argentina side in the early morning before the heat of the day and than the most beautiful part the Brazilian side when there was hardly any people on the walkway. He even gave our wives the opportunity to shop at the stores. He also suggested the boat ride to the falls..the NOT WET boat ride lol..what a wonderful experience that was. Douglas also was very knowledgeable about the area and county and shared many stories and experiences of the country and town. I would highly recommend Douglas as a personal tour guide.

Planning the day to avoid the crowds and make the most of both sides of the falls is exactly what we aim for, so we’re happy everything worked out perfectly for your group. It’s wonderful to know you enjoyed not only the falls and the boat ride, but also learning more about the region, its culture, and local stories along the way. And of course, making a little time for shopping is always important too! 😄 Thank you for your recommendation and for choosing CaFalls Day Tours.

A fantastic adventure on both sides of the border.

Exceptional organization and very professional attitude. We saw everything most interesting from the Brazilian and Argentine side of the waterfall. Our guide William told us all the most interesting and useful information, helped us with tickets and reservations and other activities that we included at the last minute. He helped us with a helicopter tour, a dinner with a tango show and a reserve with rare birds. I highly recommend the service that the company offers.

Operator response

Thank you very much for your wonderful feedback 🙏 I’m really glad you had such a complete experience on both sides of the falls and enjoyed all the extra activities along the way 😊 William will be very happy to hear your kind words—he’s always dedicated to making every detail smooth and memorable.

A Magical Misty Day at the Falls

We just finished our day tour with Fernando and it was such a wonderful experience! Fernando knew the best way to structure the day to give us the best viewing opportunities while avoiding the worst of the heat and the worst of the crowds. He gave excellent tips on where to take photos and even took a few pictures of our family for us at those spots. (Including when a butterfly landed on my thumb!) He gave us time to enjoy each location as we wanted and was ready to guide us to each new spot when we were ready to move on. He was very knowledgeable about the wildlife we saw during the day, as well. We were also well guided with the admission process at both parks and Fernando really made us feel like VIPs. I will definitely be recommending this tour with this company to anyone I know who is planning a trip to Iguaçu. Thank you for such a lasting memory!!!
