- Adebola A00Breathtaking & so well managedAmazing experience from beginning to end. I couldn’t recommend this more. I came for a 3 day solo trip to see iguazu and booking this made my whole experience seamless. This was my first time in both Argentina & Brazil and some conveniences I got from this tour were so valuable. From getting picked up & dropped off at the airport to getting help navigating the border crossing across Brazil & Argentina which I had to do multiple times. The tour itself was breathtaking and I’m immensely grateful I was able to see this. Would definitely recommend doing the boat tour, especially on the Argentinian side. The boat tour on the Brazillian side is also nice but less so than the Argentinian side.
- MCTMASE00Prepare to get wetI recently completed the full day tour to Iguazu Falls (Argentina side) with Say Hueque Journeys and Operaciones EcoIguazu. Iguazu Falls is an incredible site and if you ever get the chance you must come and see it. I was staying in Brazil and I paid extra for transfers to the Argentina side. My driver was on time, drove safely in wet conditions and was extremely professional. He also assisted with navigating the Brazil and Argentina border requirements. The tour was also very good. Our guide who’s name escapes me sorry (an Argentine Andre Agassi looking gent) was well organised and spoke in English and Spanish to cater for the diverse group of guests we had from Peru, Spain, USA, UK and Australia. He led us safely through the national park, giving us plenty of time to take photos and either go with the group or push ahead with dedicated meeting points if we completed the trail before others. To make this a perfect 5 next time, I’d suggest reviewing the tour start time. The park opens at 9am and several groups were there for opening, this made the falls very crowded and it was often shoulder to shoulder at the viewing points. Surely there’s an opportunity to spread the groups out to start at 9, 9:30, 10 etc. I also thought there was too much dead time in the itinerary, at the end of the tour we were given over an hour for lunch. I used this time to complete the superior trail a second time, while the rest of the group ate. Perhaps make lunch optional and those who don’t want to eat can keep exploring or leave the park early. Thank you for a fun day out. I wouldn’t hesitate to do this again.
- 970jemmac00Iguasu Brazilian sideGreat trip, falls are stunning. Picked up on time. When had a flight booked that day and when we were delayed at Brazilian border coming back, our guide was in contact with our transfer company to let them know what was happening and we made our transfer.
- arjohnson2300Great Experience!This experience was absolutely amazing! Be prepared to WALK! On this day, I counted more than 19k steps! The tour took approx 7 hours. The highlight was getting wet on the falls. I did not know what to expect for the entire tour. You’ll definitely need a change of clothes! Our tour guide Jorge, was awesome! He kept up with us and allowed us to take photos at the different vantage points. Overall, on time Pickup from hotel, food was ok at the food court, just a great experience !
- Q6716ZSkristenm00Great guide - incredible reviewsThe tour was very well organized from pickup to drop-off. Our guide provided interesting insight along the way and made sure the group enjoyed themselves but also remained on schedule. The falls are absolutely incredible and I would recommend anyone to do the boat tour as part of the excursion. You will get soaked, but it is a completely different way to experience the falls and is well worth it!
- susannemT5818FH00Professional & reliable!Very reliable, helpful, and good! We had trouble paying for the park tickets on the official site, but they fixed it for us :) I do wish the guide had talked more about the wildlife and maybe some history, but otherwise it was really good! Everything was smooth and professional! Highly recommend!
- Leo03800the fallsAll good but I recommend doing the Argentinian side as well as they are both different. On the Argentinian side you see the falls from the top plus there is a train to take you from one site to another. Check out the devils fall very impressive but quite a walk.
- anemonek201800IguazuIncredible views and a really fun day! The boat ride is a must and was for sure the highlight of the day! But be prepared to get very wet. Bring a poncho and a change of clothes.
- Tour4187559402800Thanks!Great experience! Knowledgeable. The boat experience was like any other! Would definitely recommend it!
- Juwambi00Perfect day long tourGreat experience. Beautiful views, efficiently run. Lots of things to see but had enough flexibility to explore on our own whole still staying on schedule
- DamoVA8300Boat Ride is a MustGreat way to explore & experience the falls from the Argentine side. Plenty of time to take in and photograph Iguazu Falls while walking across the top section walkways. Highly recommend adding boat ride to the bottom section, this was a highlight for us! Be prepared to get very soggy! Tour provider also assisted us visiting the Brazilian side of the falls the following day with another knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. Cheers!
- Dream3130405462800The perfect day in a remarkable place.We had a wonderful experience from airport pickup to return. Our guide, Maria Laura, was fantastic. She moved at our own pace as we walked all three trails and shared tons of information along the way. She even offered to take us to the Meliá hotel for a drink after the tour. Going in August kept the crowds and the temperatures down. It was a perfect day in a truly wonderful place!
- akbobz00MUST SEE if traveling to Buenos Aires!Best experience due to the pure beauty of the falls. All parts of the tour are incredible and you will not be disappointed.
- 1307Bharti00Great Experience - Niagara Falls on steroids!We had a great experience and would highly recommend the tour! The falls are truly amazing and there are lots of them! The hiking is fairly easy to do. The trains can only be accessed at the allocated time on your ticket so it's worth planning your day around this especially if you want to see Devil's Throat (which is stunning).
- 744leonardf00Great Family FunDefinitely worth the money and time. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and spoke great English. Be prepared because you will definitely get wet, soaked, on the boat ride. We wore ponchos and still got wet so bring fast drying clothes or something to change into. Although after the boat ride there isn’t anything close to change your clothes. The train ride to Devil’s Throat was nice. The Coatis were easy to see at the eating areas. And we saw alligator or crocodile at the boat area. The entire family had fun on this trip and even though you do a lot of walking it wasn’t bad.

Front middle or back of boat, it does not matter you are going to get wet!
It's a little scary, The falls are high and the water pelting!
Camera needs to be well protected or leave in the provided 10 reis locker!
I say this is a must do, but not for little children!

How long is the boat ride? Instead of lunch, are there additional walkways or trails to explore? Is there pick up from Selvaje Lodge Iguazu in Puerto Iguazu?

The boat ride was about 45 minutes
I only did the trail that leads up to The catwalk up close to the falls
I’m sure there are others
I was pressed for time
I’m not sure about pick up but I imagine any company would pick up from any of the local hotels since they are close
I treated myself to the Belmond inside the park and literally at the foot of the falls
I think Argentina side is known for longer and more trails
