CANCELLATION POLICY
The following penalties apply for cancellations:
DATE CHANGE POLICY
Date changes for reservations are subject to availability and price updates.
PLAN B POLICY
In case of storms with electrical activity or heavy rainfall that jeopardize the safety of individuals, and in the event of environmental conditions that prevent navigation on the river:
At La Lorenza, we do not cancel excursions due to rain. We are located in an eco-region called the Atlantic Rainforest, meaning intermittent rainfall occurs frequently, providing the jungle with renewed vitality.
For excursions involving the river, we wait for the rain to pass or proceed with rain ponchos. However, if we receive an alert for electrical activity from the Coast Guard or if there is heavy rainfall that puts people’s lives at risk, we will suspend the river activity for safety reasons. The activity will be replaced by the “La Lorenza Jungle and Culture” excursion (mate experience) on solid ground as a Plan B.
Plan B is also applied in case of environmental phenomena (e.g., rising or lowering river levels) that prevent navigation on the river.
The experience lasts approximately 3 to 3.5 hours, not including the 50-minute drive to La Lorenza.
Yes, the excursion provides essential equipment such as a telescope for birdwatching. Guests are encouraged to bring their own binoculars for a more personalized experience.

"We did the private Iguazu Falls tour to Argentina. The entire experience was seamless. Our guide - Jessica - was great and the booking experience was painless. Would definitely recommend!
"We had the most amazing day exploring the waterfalls by foot, boat, and helicopter! The boat ride was a thrilling (and soaking wet!) adventure, and the aerial views were absolutely breathtaking. Everything was seamless, well-organised, and fun from start to finish. Huge thanks to the team for making Joe’s birthday so special!
"Great experience! It's a one in a life experience!
"the company worked with us to change flights a few times due to cancellations out of Ushaia. Also our guide was great and very helpful!
"Lucia at RipioTurismo did an excellent job arranging my three day Iguazu falls tour from Buenos Aires. Everything was included, except meals. All transport and tour arrangements were executed very well. It was very easy to communicate with the tour operator before and during my trip.
