Roberto brought the tour to life! - Our hotel was in the Brazil side of the falls and we were collected from our hotel and brought across the border with the tour guide. This took the stress out of the border for us. Remember to bring your passport! Our guide Roberto was amazing he knew everything about the falls and his enthusiasm brought the trip to life. We did the half day Argentina side of the trip and were dropped back to our hotel after an amazing day at the falls. I definitely recommend doing the full day, Brazil and Argentina side with this tour if you have a limited amount of time in Iguazu. We split it into two sepeprate days as we had more time to do so. But both would be amazing with this tour guide!

Experience of a lifetime - I cannot recommend this excursion enough. The tour operator communicated well with us throughout, picked us up at our AirBnB, and provided opportunities for additional excursions. Roberto, our guide, was informative and engaging.
He clearly loves the falls and the flora and fauna surrounding them. It was great to get local history as well as information on local wildlife from him. Book this tour and get up close and personal with one of the Wonders of the Natural World.

Amazing, beautiful personal tour! - Our tour guide, Robert, was fantastic! He was friendly and knowledgeable. We were surprised and excited that it was just us in the group... And it sounded like his company did the smaller more individualized tours. It is really cool to walk through the jungle on the paths to the waterfalls. We enjoyed the lower loop seeing the waterfalls from the front more than from above, but both loops were still great. Unfortunately, the water was so high from rains that Devils Throat was closed at this time. Still, there are so many waterfalls, it is amazing. There was a lot of walking, but it was worth it! It was really fun to get the view from both sides, as we had done the Brazil side on our own the day before and we were glad that we had then on different days.

A Well-planned and Thoughtfully Executed Experience - A well-planned trip. Great experience. I was picked up on time, and everything else on the itinerary, in spite of the many different "moving parts" was executed smoothly and professionally. The only thing I would have changed was the amount of information shared regarding the history of the place, but in the end, this is something that one can easily read about independently. I took the combined trip to both sides and also thought that a little more info on how lunch worked on the Brazilian side should have been offered. But everything regarding the tour itself was great - just the right amount of walking, just the right amount of time at various locations, just the right balance to give you a good experience and a feel for the place. I have to point out that the weather, the border crossing, and the size of the group can change all of this easily, so a certain amount of luck is mixed in. The guide was great. Do I wish he had better English - yes, but it was manageable, and to my surprise, English speaking turned out to be a problem in Brazil in general. It appears to be a chauvinistic issue - Brazil being friends with China, Russia and India, does not put her in the best of company this way. Even flights and airports there do not have announcements in English, so I was happy to get a guide who might not have spoken perfectly, but managed to communicate the basics.Overall, 5 stars.

Wonderful trip to Iguazu Falls, Argentina - It was a wonderful trip to the Argentinan side of the Iguazu Falls. The pick up was on time and the trip was very well organised. Antonio, our guide was very cheerful and helpful. He ensured our safety throughout the trip. Like other reviews said he is knowledgible and gave us interesting facts about the Iguazu Falls and the animals living there. It wasn’t too crowded on the Argentinan side and we had sufficient time to take photos and enjoyed ourselves. Devil’s Throat is definitely breath taking! It’s truly a memorable trip and I’d recommend this tour to my friends and family visiting Brazil/Argentina. Muito obrigada!
