Buenos Aires till Iguazufallen: privat dagstur, flygresor ingår

The success of this trip depends on nature, scenery and the guide. The scenery is breathtaking. Transfers (from the hotel to the airport, transfers to destination and return to Buenos Aires were well organized. The guide, Augustina, was excellent. He organized an additional excursion to the city of Foz do Iguaçu when we realized that this excursion did not include the boat ride to the falls. We also went to dinner on our own at a magnificent restaurant in the city. As for the excursion, some of the trails in the higher areas may be too demanding for people with reduced mobility or in poorer physical condition. In this sense, alternative paths were a good option. As points of improvement, we suggest: Replace the train with vehicles on wheels, as is done on the Brazilian side. The train made a lot of noise and covered up the sounds of nature. From the point of view of marketing and additional sales, Viator could indicate that optional paid services such as meals and boat trips can be added on private tours. We have previously made a similar excursion from the Brazilian side and, in our opinion, the organization was better value for money.

We had a mixed experience with this tour. There were definitely some highlights, but a major issue with our return travel significantly impacted the overall experience. First, the positives. Emanuel (tour guide) and Andrés (driver) were both excellent. Emanuel, in particular, was kind, responsive, and did his best to support us on the ground. The tour itself was well organized, and we truly appreciated their efforts. Unfortunately, things broke down when our return flight from Iguazú was delayed and ultimately canceled. We found out about the delay ourselves rather than being proactively informed, and communication from the company only came after we reached out. During a time-sensitive and stressful situation, we did not feel supported or guided. More importantly, there was no meaningful help in navigating next steps from the tour company on the back end. We were left to figure out alternatives on our own on the ground, including booking new flights at our own expense to avoid being stranded. Waiting for the airline to resolve the situation was not a realistic option given our limited time in Argentina (which is what they told us needed to happen) and the fact that we were traveling with elderly parents who have physical limitations (which they were sympathetic about, but again didn't help us). Since all the flights were booked by the company, we were unable to manipulate anything on the backend, and again, they were unwilling to help us. What was most disappointing was not the flight disruption itself, which we understand is outside of their control, but the lack of proactive communication, guidance, and customer care when it mattered most. At this price point, we expected a higher level of support. Although helpful, after experiencing anyone could book an uber to the airport, book their own flights and find a tour in Iguazu themselves. In the end, while parts of the tour were very good, the handling of this situation left us feeling stressed and unsupported, which unfortunately overshadowed much of the experience.

We absolutely loved our trip to the waterfalls. For us, the type of path to the falls was very important, and we were happy to find well-maintained metal walkways with a grid-like surface, which made the journey much easier and more comfortable. Our guide, Emanuel, was outstanding—knowledgeable, with a great sense of humor, and very well-informed about the local flora and fauna. A true naturalist! He was also incredibly attentive and caring. The entire tour was perfectly organized, down to the minute. All the drivers were highly professional. We are extremely satisfied and would highly recommend this tour.

Iguazu Falls is a must see! There were 4 of us in our private tour, which was fantastic! Our guide, Emanuel, was OUTSTANDING!

This was an all day action packed adventure since we elected to do both sides of the falls. Our guide was accommodating, so energetic, knowledgeable and prepared for everything. Blister? He’s got bandaids, Nordic body dying of heat and no hat? Boom he gives you his own hat, needing a boost? He will teach you how to brew Mate and share his coveted mate with you! He knows EVERYONE and everyone loves him. Having the door to door service was amazing, I really appreciated being able to just enjoy my trip with out having to figure out connections and transfers. The drivers were the best we’ve had and we could not have asked for a better day!

Jose and Andres, our drivers were very professional, courteous and expert. Emmanuel, our tour guide was exceptional - very knowledgeable and accommodating. We got to see the entire falls, plus the Tres Fronteras and had an exceptional dinner in Iquazu - all in one long day. This was one of the best experiences in our lives.

This was an amazing trip. It was absolutely seamless. We had very clear communication from the trip organiser who also sent through the boarding passes which was so helpful. We were picked up July our driver at 6am. The driver was well presented, his car was clean and he was a fantastic driver. At Iguazu we were picked up by Augustine our driver and Anna our guide. Anna was an amazing guide. She is passionate about the park and wildlife conservation and she was the perfect person to have as a guide. I cannot speak highly enough of her. We opted to not do the boat cruise under the falls so we walked the lower and upper loops then took the second to last train to the Diablo. Anna had it all perfectly planned so that we had a long break for lunch during the hottest part of the day and it was very hot. Anna pointed out a lot of birds, fish, turtles, monkeys, many other plants and animals. It was an incredible day. We had a beer and hamburger in the Hard Rock Cafe at Iguazu airport. We were met by the same driver who took us back to the hotel. Perfect day out. Thoroughly recommend this service.

The tour was fantastic from start to end. Transfers to and from our hotel and to and from the falls were very well organised and our guide at the falls was excellent. Best ever. I thoroughly recommend this tour.

Emmanuel was a very knowledgeable and fun tour guide. Pickup and drop-off drivers were punctual and comfortable rides

This trip is the biggest high risk/high reward excursion I have been on. You begin the trip flying on JetSmart, an economy airline. If you have any meaningful delays on the outbound, your whole outing can be dramatically altered. We were delayed but only for about 45 minutes. When we arrived, the outing was magnificent. Iguazu is spectacular and our guide was exceptional. It is truly a wonder to behold and our guide masterfully took us though the experience. It was outstanding. We then flew back on JetSmart and again were reminded how tenuous that experience could be as most flights out that night were cancelled but luckily ours was only delayed for about an hour. We had an incredible time but buyers should know the small margin of error between “time of your life” and frustration. We had an incredible outing.
