"I had such a good time at Iguazu. It is stunningly beautiful and the power of the water is awesome. Junior, who was our guide on the Argentina side, was excellent, and very helpful. He kept in touch with the boat trip team as there was some question if it would happen (water levels), took me to get the tickets and show me where to board, and really looked after me. Marcelo, who took us to Brazil, was also very knowledgeable and a pleasure to be with. I must also add a note about the drivers. They were fabulous and obviously work very closely with the guides, and do everything they can to make sure you get to where you need to be. So thank you for providing me with an excellent tour of such a wonderful natural phenomenon. I have already recommended you to several people and will continue to do so.
"From beginning to end the team at IguazuFalls ensured that our time at las cataratas was incredible. Highly reccomend IguazuFalls for a curated experience of one of the great wonders of the world!
"The tour in its entirety was well organized, from pick up to drop off at our hotel. Taking the Iguazu Falls Tour on the Brazilian side was a spectacular experience…from the balcony to the Devil’s Throat, the 1.5 trail offered us a panoramic view of the falls, allowed us to view the falls at different angles, hence great for photos. It entailed a lot of walking and climbing, yet it was worth the experience. For my family, the Iguazu Falls is indeed a natural wonder…another destination that’s been ticked off our bucket list. Thanks to your team for making it a wonderful and unforgettable experience for us.
"The location is fantastic and the scenery exquisite. The staff are all lovely, friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend.
"Travel to Iguazu from Buenos Aires was easy and direct. We made transfer arrangements from the airport to our hotel in advance. Our two night stay at Gran Melia could not have been more enjoyable. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the location is superb. We enjoyed amazing views of the falls from our room, and everywhere else throughout the hotel and its grounds. A short, simple walk brought us up close to even more amazing and breathtaking views. One of the most memorable resort experiences we’ve had.
