Spend three days exploring Iguazu Falls from Brazil and Argentina, with airport transfers, two hotel nights, park fees, breakfast, and optional flights from Buenos Aires. Guides such as Ricardo and Pajaro have earned praise for their care and clear explanations. Add the Great Adventure boat ride if you want a soaking close-up of the falls.

“The hotel and Iguazu Falls experience were wonderful. The hotel we stayed at was beautiful and the tour operator came right to the lobby to pick us up. They took very good care of us. The Falls were amazing! Very happy that we went. The only part that I wasn't happy with was at the airport the morning we flew to Iguazu Falls. We really didn't have any idea where we were suppose to be. A little guidance would have been really helpful.”

3.Cafayate, Humahuaca & Salinas Grandes 3-Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 41 reviews · from $106

Spend three full days touring northern Argentina from Salta in an air-conditioned Mercedes-Benz minivan. Visit a Cafayate winery, the Hill of 7 Colors, Humahuaca, Tilcara, and Salinas Grandes with a bilingual guide such as Monica. Expect long drives, early starts, big scenery, and a packed schedule.

“We did 3 trips, so it was a lot of time in the van. The second two were in the same direction so there was some repetition, which we knew. We didn't realise however that there was an optional tour to the 14 colour hill as noone from the agency had mentioned it, despite us going in every day. This was a little disappointing. All the guides were good, but we loved Monica”

4.3-Day Iguazú Falls Tour with Airfare

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 21 reviews · 3 days · from $550

Fly from Buenos Aires to Iguazu for three days of guided sightseeing on the Argentine and Brazilian sides.

Flights, transfers, park fees, breakfast, and two hotel nights are included when you select the flight option. The Great Adventure boat ride is extra.

“Explaining better when it is best to arrive. We took the early plane from Buenos Aires and were met promptly at the airport and transported to our accomodation which at 10 am had nothing prepared for us. We were expecting our tour to begin, but had to sit around the lobby until almost two. We could have easily booked a later flight. Had a lovely tour of the Brazilian side and a full day tour the next day of the Argentinian side. Next morning had a mid-morning flight back to Buenos Aires. Amazing tour. Take the optional boat ride worth the price, but expect to get wet.”
