He is fluent in English, Spanish and Portuguese and with years of experience knows everything there is to know about Iguazu. All border crossings were super smooth - customer's didn't need to leave the vehicle. Inside the parks everything ran like clockwork and we had time to really enjoy the falls from all angles. I really can't rate…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 102 reviews · 7 to 9 hours (approx.) · from $150

Park fees and the optional Brazilian boat ride cost extra.

“It was better than expected. Our tourist guide was Marcos, and he was great. We enjoyed our day with him learning about the Falls, the cities, and the countries. He knew all the best spots and views and helped us taking family pictures. It is an intense tour, but the paths on both sides of the falls are very easy...just bring a bottle of water to stay hydrated. Marcos was very flexible and never rushed the day. With this tour, you would use a different line to cross the borders and it doesn't take too long. I highly recommend this tour.”
