The tour gave me a real taste of Paraguay, from the beautiful Monday Falls to the lively local market and the impressive Itaipu Dam. My guide was friendly and knowledgeable and made the entire day so much fun. Everything was also very well organized by the tour operator, and the service was extremely professional. I was very happy with the experience and would absolutely recommend it!
