Day Tour from Buenos Aires

"In January I used this company to visit Iguazu Falls from Buenos Aires for the day. Everything went smoothly, from the start of the day to the end. My driver was on time for my early morning flight and the tour guide and driver were at the IGR airport waiting for me when I arrived. Since I did a solo tour, my guide was able to answer all my questions and we were able to go at my pace. She was very knowledgeable! While at the falls, I did the buffet lunch, the boat ride (from the Argentina side), along with both circuits. Since I had a late flight back to Buenos Aires, I was able to take a tour of the town as well. I would definitely recommend this company for your trip to Iguazu Falls!

Our Day Trip to Iguazu Falls From Buenos Aires

"

Our day trip to Iguazu Falls (Argentina side) was amazing!!! We were picked up at our hotel in Buenos Aires, driven to the domestic airport, flown to Iguazu and met at the airport by our friendly guide Chris. Chris was the BEST! He expertly guided us through the park to see the upper and lower falls. Since 80% of the falls are on the Argentina side, the boat ride is a must! It allowed us to see both the Brazil and Argentina side. We also paid to have lunch included. There’s only one restaurant in the park. Know that you will more than likely get wet. You’re in a rain forest. If you’re on the boat ride, they provide you with a large waterproof bag to keep extra clothes and valuables dry. We also traveled with a large plastic ziplock bag so that I could pack wet clothes for the plane ride back to Buenos Aires. A driver met us at the airport and delivered us safely to our hotel. It was a full day but well worth it! We loved it!

Memorable and fantastic trip

"We had an intensive tour organised for us. Our first day included pick up from our hotel in Buenos Aires and transfer to the airport. We were met by our driver at Iguazu airport who took us to our hotel (4 star Panoramic Grand) in Iguazu. The rooms and food at the restaurant were excellent. The next day we visited the Argentinian side of the falls with Maria as our guide. We took the Adventure Tour which is really fun & you will get soaked! We took a sunset boat trip on the Parana River which included a drink and live band onboard. In the evening, we went to the Madero Tango show which was excellent and included a 6 course meal. The dancers, singer and drummers were all very entertaining. On our third day, we took a bus tour to Wanda Mine, San Ignacio Mini Jesuit ruins and Flor de Jardín mate plant - all very interesting - and English guides were organised for us at each location, too. Our forth day we had a private tour with Maria to the Salto Monday falls in Paraguay then we walked across the bridge from Paraguay to Brazil. We continued our tour at the Brazilian side of the falls including a short helicopter ride giving us a stunning bird’s eye view of the falls. Our final day was spent enjoying a late breakfast then transfer back to the airport for our return to Buenos Aires where we were met by our driver for return to our hotel. Yes, we were very busy but had an amazing time in Iguazu all because of IguazuFalls.com (Ripio Tourismo). Thank you for making our trip memorable and thoroughly enjoyable.

"We were a group of 4 adults, disembarking a cruise ship in Buenos Aires. This company arranged a fairly extensive travel plan for us - a pickup from the port to the hotel they arranged for us, a 6 hour tour of Buenos Aires, an extremely early pickup from the hotel to the airport for a flight to Iguazu, a pickup to a hotel they arranged for 2 nights for us, private tours for 2 days in Iguazu, back to airport, pickup in BA to hotel then transfer to BA airport to fly back to the U.S.!!!!! EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT!!!!!!
