    Overall was ok. I need to specify something about the hotel in Iguazu. I understand its a 3 stars one but its not normal to be so wet everywhere in the room (huge humidity, all sheets were nearly soaked) and when you ask for soap (missing) to be advise to use the shower gel as soap.

    The tour itself was well organized and put together but I had to add a lot of optional extras along with hotel upgrades (as opposed to hostels) to fill up my free days and also to make this worth my while and see lots of different things while I was down there. I’m also glad that I flew from Iguazu to Rio instead of the overnight bus because 19 hours from Buenos Aires to Iguazu on a bus was too much. The company advertises a low price for the tour for this reason. The fees to enter Iguazu national parks are also not included.

    Air N Z late into B A so no shuttle waiting. Paid for transport to hostel. All went well until bus to Rio. Departure delayed by one and a half hours with a replacement bus. After 3 meal stops and a 3 hour highway closure arrived Rio 5 hours late. Shuttle to airport on 15th arrived one hour early (3 a m) and then took me to the wrong airport.

    Asked on July 31st, 2025

    Will there be any hotel changes in Iguazu? If I enter Argentina via Buenos Aires then travel to Iguazu, visit Argentina side, back to Argentina hotel. The next morning, check out hotel, visit Brazil side (means exit Argentina enter Brazil) then check in to the Brazil hotel, is this possible?

    Accommodation
    Tour Details
    • Hi Travel ArgentinaOperatorWritten July 2025

      Yes, it's absolutely possible. On one day you would visit the Argentine side of the falls and return to your accommodation in Argentina. The next day, you would visit the Brazilian side and then check in at the accommodation in Brazil. There might be a small price difference for this change, but nothing significant.
