Recommend seeing the Paraguyan falls if you are staying in Iguazu for more than few days

A great way to check Paraguay off the list. Coming from the U.S. we were not interested in the shopping which is apparently a great deal for Brazilians but less so for us. The falls were definitely worth seeing. Our guide was professional, spoke good Englishh, and very friendly. He was also accommodating to our preferences. Recommend if you are staying in Iguazu for more than a couple of days.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your visit to Paraguay and that the waterfalls were one of the highlights of your day. It’s also wonderful to know that your guide’s professionalism, friendliness, and flexibility helped make the experience even more enjoyable. As you mentioned, Ciudad del Este offers a different experience depending on each traveler’s interests. While many visitors enjoy the shopping opportunities, others simply prefer taking in the scenery and exploring another side of the region—and we’re glad the tour gave you that opportunity. Thank you for choosing to explore the Paraguayan side with us. We hope you had an amazing stay in Iguazu and that we’ll have the pleasure of welcoming you back on another adventure in the future!

Awesome tour if you have Deivid as your guide

I wasn't going to give a great review, but because of my guide Deivid I am . He went out of his way to be accommodating, knowledgeable, inviting and engaging. You can't go wrong if you get him as your guide. The reason I wasn't going to leave a good review doesn't matter at this point.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your review! 😊 We’re glad to hear that Deivid made a real difference during your tour and contributed to such a positive experience. He’ll definitely be happy to hear this. We hope to see you again soon!

Saltos Monday

Saltos Monday was truly an incredible sight to behold—a magnificent waterfall that left us in awe. We also made a stop at the Paraguay and Argentina border, where the three countries converge. Since it was a private tour, we decided to forgo the shopping excursion. Our primary focus was on witnessing the waterfall and exploring a bit of Paraguay. The tour guide proved to be exceptionally accommodating and promptly accommodated our request to stop for lunch. He took us to a fantastic restaurant that offered a delightful dining experience.

It’s great that the private tour allowed you to customize your experience, focusing on the breathtaking waterfall and exploring Paraguay. We’re also delighted that our guide could accommodate your lunch request and took you to a fantastic restaurant for a memorable dining experience. 🍽️ Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you on another adventure soon! 🌍

An unique and surprising experience

This full-day tour in Ciudad del Este, Paraguay, was an unique and surprising experience. Having a free day, I took the chance and I got much more than expected. Nanny Reichert was an amazing, friendly and professional guide that took me to the Monday Falls, the Paraguayan Three-border monument, showed me a few sites of the city and finally we had lunch in style at the Hotel-Casino Acaray. In the afternoon, after being amazed by the local traffic (once you see it you will understand what I mean), under her necessary supervision, I did some good-value shopping at Ciudad del Este (tip: have a list of what you want/need and stick to it!). Congrats, this was truly a wonderful experience!

Saltos Monday

Saltos Monday was really cool waterfall to see, we also took a stop at the Paraguay and Argentina side where the three countries merge, I think shopping was a big part of this tour since it was a private tour we opted out of doing the shopping, really just wanted to see the waterfall and check out a little bit of Paraguay The tour guide was extremely accommodating, and we requested to stop for launch and he took us to a really good restaurant

Great time in Ciudad dei Este

We arrived from Asuncion and met Eder and Marcos in Ciudad del Este. We visited Monday falls and and had a sightseeing in Ciudad del Este. Later they drove us to our hotel in Foz do Iguacu. They were so fun to be with and we got very good information about both Paraguay and Brazil. We will use them again next time we visit.

Fun day trip with variety!

My sister and I had a great day trip experience with Virginia! The whole day was very well planned and we had a lot of variety in activities. We got to feel like a local during our short visit to Paraguay. My favorite part was getting to stop in a local bakery. Virginia gave us a lot of good recommendations for food for try! We felt very safe all day and got to experience the local culture without having to stress about the language barrier or navigation details. I highly recommend this day trip!
