This is a great tour. The driver was great, calm and as asked spoke English. Iguazu is an amazing sight to see. Pick up was close to time and picked up from our airbnb, which made life very easy. Getyourguide is a great company and have used many times throughout the world. There is always a contact on the app and can be contacted by whatsapp, if you have an issue.

We enjoyed the trip very much. The driver picked us up from the hotel in a car that drove us across the border to a park on the Brazilian side. We had a choice if we wanted to walk the trail past the waterfalls first or take the boat under the waterfalls first. Finally, we were taken back to the hotel.

Despite the fact that we didn't speak the languages of our guide, that didn't stop us from having a good day. Everything went as planned.

Hotel pick up was on time, communication very good being kept informed of to.es etc

Tour guide was very helpful, the boat was amazing great view of the falls!!
