The Argentine side of the Iguazu Falls, beautiful scenery, amazing! The "Devil's throat" is abundant in water, and the atmosphere is the most spectacular. Wild animals can be seen everywhere in the park, such as: long-nosed bears, long sharks, black-american sharks, yellow-mouthed sharks, coronavirus, etc. The area is connected by a small train, very convenient. Even sitting on the small train is a fun experience. Walking facilities are perfect, highly recommended for this tour.
The Argentine side of the Iguazu Falls Beautiful view, the location is amazing. The area is connected by a small train, very convenient. Taking a small train park is also very fun. The most famous attraction "The Devil's Throat" has plenty of water, and the atmosphere is amazing. The park is well equipped, the road marks are clear, there is a picnic area, and there are many restaurants. Walk on a comfortable walkway, and you can see wild animals everywhere, such as yellow-mouthed bears, black-american bears, giant bears, cranberries, long-nose bears, etc., right next door. It is definitely worth the trip, not to go here.
Beautiful a must see and do, also a boat tour under the falls was an unforgettable experience.would recommend it to anyone.
Exuberant view!!!! I was stunned by the spectacle of the waters of nature.... Amazing, wonderful, spectacular!!! It is worth knowing...
Please, under no circumstances, do not use this tour operator. I made a booking with them and entered my hotel for a pick up location. The booking allowed my hotel to go through as one of their pickup destinations. Then at the last minute they send me a message stating that they do not pick up at my hotel and that I would need to meet them at another location. They offered me a cancellation which I told them I wanted as I was not able to meet at their pick up point. Then they turn around and state that I cancelled within 24 hours so they would not give me my money back. They had two days to advise me that my hotel was not in their pickup area but waited until the last minute to let me know and now will not refund me. They are a very, dishonest company. Please do not use them.

The minibus picked us up right on time and took us to the Argentine side of Iguazu Falls. The falls are overwhelming to see and the trails to the various vistas were easy and interesting walks through the jungle. If you’ve only visited the Brazilian side of the falls, you’ll find the Argentine side a much different experience. Best thing to do is do both sides. Our guide was knowledgeable, bilingual and very friendly. It’s a lot of walking, so bring good shoes and bug spray and,prepare,to be amazed.
Beautiful views. Stunning waterfalls! We would have liked a little more science and history background.
There is a constant dilemma about which side of the falls are the best, Argentina’s or Brazil’s. In fact they are both stunning in their own right. In the Argentina side the walk to the falls is more open with more chance of seeing animals, birds or butterflies with the option of taking a small train part of the way. The walkways leading up to the falls are also wider giving the impression of it being less crowded. The views, well what can you say, they are nature and it’s power at its best. There are plenty of rest stops for water and food along the way but definately prepare yourself with insect spray!
Pajaro is an excellent guide. Our tour of Iguazu Falls was very pleasant. Pajaro took us through some shortcuts so we could enjoy the sights without a lot of walking. The timing to lunch was so good that we had the dining hall to ourselves, so we didn't have long lines. Most of all, he took very good care of the group and solved issues effectively.
I think you have to do both sides of these falls because they are so different. This side give you a good impression of the myriad of contributory feeds that comprise the total spectre of the falls and the vast volume of water. However, there is a lot of walking and I mean a lot. Is it worth it? Well yes, if you can make the effort and whilst it is wheelchair friendly with no steps, it is going to hard very work but if you are walking impaired, you are going to struggle. If your time is limited, do the "blue" route for some marvellous views.
