We had a marvelous day with Marcos, our guide. We started in the Brazilian side and ended the day on the Argentina side. Marcos was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the falls, the area, the birds (especially the birds) and all area attractions. We highly recommend this trip. Truly outstanding!

Perfect Day.

Natalia_E, Apr 2024

This was truly a perfect day - The falls are fantastic. Our guide was very knowledgeable and managed our schedule so that we were able to fit everything and be on time for our evening flight back. Without a guide, we would not have been able to cross the border twice, still manage to get everything done, and enjoy the Falls to the fullest. Thank you, Natalia

Gabriel

Neelege_E, Apr 2024

If I could I would give Gabriel 6-stars! He was an EXCELLENT guide! It was quite apparent he loves what he do! If anybody is so luckily to get him as a guide you won’t be disappointed!

Best way to enjoy the Falls on both sides in one day

Elvin_A, Apr 2024

It was better than expected. Our tourist guide was Marcos, and he was great. We enjoyed our day with him learning about the Falls, the cities, and the countries. He knew all the best spots and views and helped us taking family pictures. It is an intense tour, but the paths on both sides of the falls are very easy...just bring a bottle of water to stay hydrated. Marcos was very flexible and never rushed the day. With this tour, you would use a different line to cross the borders and it doesn't take too long. I highly recommend this tour.

Daniel was GREAT!

JimLockington, Mar 2024

We were happy to have the guidance and help of Daniel for our day on both sides of the falls. He had great suggestions, he was patient, and funny. Strongly recommend!

Great!!

stephen_c, Mar 2024

The entire experience was Amazing!! Our guide William was fantastic!! The whole experience was beyond our expectations.

Highly recommended

rebecca_h, Mar 2024

What a fantastic day. Our flights were changed 3 times and as this was a day trip from Buenos Aires we were worried we wouldn’t get to see both sides of the Falls. However Daniel was the best tour guide ever. So knowledgeable and easy to be with. He managed to get the whole day done as well as this we added the boat trip which was amazing. Thanks so much Daniel a real credit to the company

Wonderful visit to Iguazú Falls!

Jana_S, Mar 2024

Gabriel was knowledgeable about the falls and the area. He took care of all arrangements and was very efficient. We loved his enthusiasm and friendliness. We were picked up and dropped off on time at our hotel. Gabriel adjusted the schedule to meet our needs.

Memorable day at Iguazu with Guide Marcos

Breathtaking Iguazu Falls Tour

NILEDAVID_R, Mar 2024

Full day private tour of Iguazu Falls with our guide Marco was the highlight of our 3 weeks in South America. The Falls are a natural wonder that must be seen to be appreciated - pictures and words will never do justice to their splendor. Marco was an excellent guide and greatly assisted in the border crossings into Brazil and back. Without his help the experience would not have been as enjoyable.

Efficient tour

Brandon_Z, Feb 2024

William did a great job of getting us through immigration and giving us enough time at all stops. Highly recommend adding on the Brazilian side boat ride

The best way to see the falls in one day

Jennifer_S, Feb 2024

Wow!! We had such a great day. The falls are spectacular. Our guide, Willian, made sure we had the best experience possible. He worked with our schedule and was very accommodating.

Amazing Experience!

Steven_G, Jan 2024

This tour was an amazing experience! Our tour guide Marcus was wonderful. He gave us lots of interesting information about the falls and the local plants and wildlife. In particular Marcus was very knowledgeable about the birds. We saw a couple of toucan birds, many coatis and a monkey. We had a great time. Thank you Marcus!

Iguazu Falls from Buenos Aires in one day.

Maria_H, Jan 2024

Walking around the Iguazu Falls on both sides. Fabiano is an excellent guide. He got us through lines quickly. Lots to see. Got it all and made the flight back to BA.

Amazing experience!

Jordan_R, Jan 2024

Excellent trip, Edir Luiz is a fantastic tour guide and I would highly recommend this trip to see both sides of the falls

Time of our life!

Nitin_K, Jan 2024

A marvellous 9 hours! Worth every minute and every dollar! Marcos, our guide, was terriffic. Got us to make the most of the time available with suggestions that I am so glad we listened to. The boat ride was fantastic. The falls were breathtaking - both sides of the border. Lines were long at times so it took maybe one to two hours more than it might otherwise have. But that is to be expected during the peak summer time that we were ther - December 27! Still, Marcos rearranged our itinerary so that we missed the crowds.

Good experience, but worth the money?

Josue_J, Dec 2023

Our tour guide was very attentive, kind, and helpful. However, the tour is over priced given that you still have to pay for park tickets and lunch. You are basically paying for the convenience of a private transportation and being able to do both country sides on the same day.

Excellent Guide

Jacquie_F, Nov 2023

Gabriel was fantastic! The weather was very rainy and he adapted to make the adventure smooth and easy. He is very knowledgeable of the history of the area, the border crossings and the layout of Iguazu Falls from both Brazil and Argentina sides. If you have limited time, hiring a guide is the way to go. Thanks Gabriel!

Absolutely incredible

Cari_C, Nov 2023

All of but mostly seeing the Brazilian side for the first time. It was incredible standing there and realizing that I was seeing such an amazing and breathtaking wonder.

The best way to spend your time at Iguazú

Jennifer_G, Nov 2023

By far a fantastic investment! My partner and I were initially hesitant about booking a tour since one can surely navigate the park without a personal guide, however, the convenience was worth the extra cost. We literally had to worry about nothing except paying the entrance fees. Marco, our guide, made the entire experience seamless and he was extremely knowledgeable about the park and its animals. He knew all the best spots for pictures, helped us navigate immigration quickly, and answered every question we had about the park. The transportation was also great; comfortable vehicles and friendly drivers. Marco was patient with us and even let us stop a few times for snacks and restroom breaks. I strongly recommend booking a tour with them if you want the best visiting experience at Iguazú.

Incredible experience with a brilliant guide

Nikita_P, Oct 2023

The tour was incredible. The guide was very knowledgable and gave us all the information around the falls and Brazilian history. The calls are well worth it and seeing it from both sides is a must.
