Spectacular! The best guide!

Wonderful!!! Davide, our guide, is very professional and patient; he helped us a lot. We had an issue with canceled flights, and he stayed with us. He knows a lot and knows how to organize things to make the most of our time! We loved it! Also from the beginning with the organizer it was perfect, he was always assisting me.

Operator response

¡Muchísimas gracias por sus hermosas palabras! Me alegra muchísimo saber que disfrutaron de la experiencia y que Davide pudo ayudarlos, especialmente con los inconvenientes de los vuelos. Haré llegar sus comentarios a él; estoy seguro de que le alegrarán el día. También les agradezco por mencionar mi asistencia durante la organización del tour. Fue un placer acompañarlos, y espero tener la oportunidad de recibirlos nuevamente en Iguazú. ¡Les deseo un excelente viaje!

Incredibly great private tour from A to Z

The perfect private tour, it is worth investing in this. With our guide Willian, we had the opportunity to be among the first on the way to the Garganta del Diablo. He was able to tell us a lot about the fauna, land, and people. It is worth booking this tour for visiting the Iguazù waterfalls. Perfect logistics, guide, and organization. It is also highly recommended to visit both sides, Argentina and Brazil.

Operator response

Vielen herzlichen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass Sie die Tour mit Willian genossen haben und die Wasserfälle von beiden Seiten erleben konnten. Vielen Dank für Ihre Empfehlung – wir wünschen Ihnen weiterhin eine wunderschöne Reise und senden herzliche Grüße aus Brasilien!

Good and bad experience

Nelton guide very good, professional, knowledgeable, attentive, punctual, available to answer concerns. The visit to the Brazilian side of the Falls very good experience. On the other hand, the visit to the Argentine side was very wearying physically, when performing on foot the Superior Circuit, which no greater stage experience. On the Brazilian side it is only justified to make the excursion to the Devil’s Throat, going to that point on the Park train. inconvenience of the Argentine sector park: bad service of payment equipment with cards (the same happened to me in Perito Moreno Glacier National Park of El Calafate). It shows mismanagement of Argentine Park Authority.

Operator response

Muchas gracias por compartir su experiencia y también por sus amables palabras sobre mí. Me alegra mucho saber que disfrutó de la visita del lado brasileño y que se sintió bien atendido durante el tour. Entiendo perfectamente su comentario sobre el desgaste físico en el lado argentino. El Circuito Superior realmente requiere más caminata y puede ser cansador para algunos visitantes. También lamento los inconvenientes con los pagos en el parque argentino, infelizmente a veces ocurren problemas externos relacionados con la administración del parque. Agradezco mucho su visita y su sincera opinión. ¡Le envío un gran saludo y le deseo excelentes viajes en el futuro!

Spectacular full day tour on both sides of the Iguazu Falls.

What a spectacular day straddling two countries to get the absolute best of the Falls. Our guide knew the in and outs so we could have the best experience possible. Nelton is highly recommended for his knowledge, his kindness and his passion for his tourism mission. Spend the few extra dollars for a private guide, I can assure you that you won’t be disappointed!

Operator response

Thank you so much for your amazing review! It truly means a lot. I’m really glad you enjoyed exploring both sides of the Falls and had such a great experience. It was a pleasure guiding you, and I appreciate your recommendation!

Great person to have as a guide

Nelson, our guide, was excellent. Extremely knowledgeable and stayed with us the whole time except for the boat tour and when he ran ahead to cool down the car on a very hot day. He made sure we were comfortable with a cooled car and water.

Great tour, definitely see both sides of the border

Fabulous day with our guide and driver Douglas. We started on the Argentinian side, and having booked our tickets in advance and with the guidance of Douglas, we were able to enter the park quickly. The pathways are easy walking, and the viewpoints provide great views of the cascades. The border crossing to Brazil was pretty slick and we stopped at restaurant designed to cater for coach loads with a buffet offering, but it defied expectations. Obviously there was meat of every kind, but unexpectedly there was a fabulous selection of vegetables and salad, and even fish. The dessert table with something to satisfy the sweet tooth of anyone. Our guide Douglas is from Ciudad del Este on the Brazilian side of the border, so it was no surprise that he championed that side as providing the better views. As it transpired it fully delivered, where in Argentina we had great views of a few cascades at various locations, on this side we had unrestricted views of the full expanse. We had a 90min wait in the ☀️ to take the optional boat trip, and although it only lasted about 20min it was great fun, bouncing upstream. Having chosen the wet option, in addition to getting to see the falls close up from water level, we also got to enjoy the full cascade shower. The falls are understandably the star attraction, short of seeing a jaguar, but we did see some of the park’s wildlife. There were scores of soaring vultures, lots of Coatis (raccoon like), a variety of beautiful butterflies, reptiles, Brazilian Guinea Pigs, Brocket (small deer) and the pick of the birds a pair of toucans. I’m very glad that we took the tour of both sides and we had a great day with Douglas.

Operator response

Thank you very much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you had such a great experience visiting the Iguaçu Falls on both the Argentinian and Brazilian sides. It’s great to know everything ran smoothly and that you enjoyed the views, the boat ride, and the lunch stop. Douglas is a valued member of our team, and we’re very happy he helped make your day so special. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again in the future!
