What an incredible day! Our guide, Eduardo was excellent! He picked us up right on time, gave us a lot of history behind the falls and even pointed out a lot of local wildlife along the way. The car ride was comfortable and he helped us cross the border from Argentina into Brazil and back very easily. He also took great photos! Highly recommend this tour as Iguaza Falls is a sight to see and this company makes the trip so easy and very worth it. Thanks again!

Itinerary
Arrival at Iguazú National Park, Start your day early and arrive at the entrance of Iguazú National Park as it opens 8 AM. Purchase your entry ticket and gather any necessary maps or information at the visitor center. Take the park's ecological train that transports visitors to the main trails, including the Upper Circuit and devils throat. The train ride offers a glimpse of the surrounding rainforest where you might spot unique wildlife. Devil's Throat This is the most iconic viewpoint of the falls, where you can walk along platforms that extend over the edge. The sight and sound of the powerful waterfalls cascading down is an unforgettable experience Begin your exploration with the Upper Circuit trail, which consists of a series of walkways that provide stunning panoramic views of the falls from above. This trail features several viewpoints, allowing you to appreciate the impressive volume of water plunging into the river below
Upon arrival on the Brazilian side, head to the visitor center for orientation. The Brazilian side offers a different perspective of the falls, highlighting their vastness. Follow the walking trail that leads to various viewpoints along the falls. The most famous viewpoint is the panoramic view of the Garganta do Diabo, where you can see the falls stretching out in all their glory. The mist and rainbows created by the sunlight make this an incredible photo opportunity. As you walk, keep an eye out for local wildlife. The Brazilian side is home to diverse flora and fauna, including colorful birds, butterflies, and playful coatis. For an adventurous twist, consider taking an optional boat ride that takes you near the falls. This thrilling experience offers an up-close view of the cascading water, and you’ll likely get splashed, adding to the excitement. Conclusion of the Tour:

The falls are a must see natural beauty. Guide made it easy and carefree. We just got to enjoy the views. We learned a lot from him as well. Recommend doing private tour with him so you can really enjoy the environment.
An amazing experience from start to finish! Flew into Iguazu for the day from Buenos Aires. They helped arrange transportation to and from the airport for me for an additional fee, totally worth it for convenience! Nicolas was my tour guide! He was very professional and informative! Did a great job of providing an amazing experience of experiencing the falls from both Brazil and Argentina, while personalizing the tour to my preferences, providing lots of great information about the falls, wildlife and vegetation! They made traveling to both sides of the falls a breeze! Overall an amazing day! Highly recommend this tour company!
Overall an amazing day and experience from both the Brazilian and Argentinian side. We had excellent weather and perfect views. Fernando, our guide was wonderful, friendly, organised and very informative throughout the day. We took breath taking pictures... He even recommended great spots for local shopping, food and sightseeing experiences in Iguazu. So worthwhile..book now! Thank you
Great trip! The rain made the falls incredible. The boat trip was insane. And even when it was raining and the park closed the 2nd day, Fernando took us to Itaipu so we didn’t lose a day.
Christian was a great tour guide and knew all the little tips and tricks to provide a personalised and efficient way to see both sides of Iguasu falls. We were able to fit in the boat tour and also have enough time to get some photos all to ourselves. Being able to skip immigration lines was immensely helpful. Christian is a welcoming guide with great knowledge of the falls. He was flexible and also provided extra services when we requested it. I would highly recommend a tour with Christian.
Our guide Cristian was amazing from start to finish! He has been in the industry for many years (at least he tells us, can’t believe how young he looks!) and it really shows. He knew the ebs and flow of the crowds during the day and when it was best to move onto the next spot etc. It was a great experience from start to finish, which was our front door for both! The falls itself was amazing and breathtaking. Being able to see it from both sides is a must! Couldn’t recommend this more. I don’t normally write reviews but this was so great I genuinely felt compelled to share my experience!
We had a turnaround flight and we're late getting in to town and they accommodated us with still providing the Brazilian side of the waterfall tour. They also picked us up at the airport for our convenience. Our tour guide and driver Nicholas was very friendly and most accommodating. It was a very enjoyable tour. We highly recommend this tour.
We had an amazing time! I highly recommend this trip. Our tour guide, Nicolas was really good. He met us at the park and got us through the lines very quickly. He was also very personable and knowledgeable about the falls. It was truly the highlight of our trip!
This was by far the best experience I have ever had. Our guide Nicolas was amazing. He picked us up from the airport, took us on an amazing tour on the Brazil side, we stopped for lunch and then crossed the boarder to the Argentina side and did one of the trails there. We went as a family with our two kids and Nicolas was just the best. I could not have been happier with how this tour worked out. Thankful for these incredible memories. Book this tour!!!
We took the "Iguazu Falls: Private Day Tour of Brazil and Argentina" and our guide made it an unforgettable experience! He is an expert in birdwatching and shared so much fascinating knowledge about the local wildlife and nature. What made the tour even more special was how he customized the day according to our preferences and pace. On top of that, he is just a genuine, friendly "nice guy" who even has Japanese friends, making us feel completely at home throughout the trip. Everything from crossing the border to finding the best photo spots went super smoothly. If you are visiting Iguazu Falls—especially if you love nature and birds—I highly recommend booking with him!
This tour was amazing not only the site but truly the experience Christian guides you through is superb! Very knowledgeable, patient, friendly, but most importantly guided our tour per our needs to make sure we got the best experience. Truly recommend!
Cristian Albino was an awesome guide. He is very knowledgeable about the history and the natural resources of the park. I loved his energy! He was also excellent at making the border crossings easy and surprised us with an early entry to the park to avoid the crowds. We enjoyed his service so much and highly recommend.
He is the best extremely knowledgeable with he knows how to make the tour amazing really knows how to avoid large crowds will show you where the animals are with identify the different animals we’ll give you a lot of information. He is really, really the best. The best day of the trip.
Spectacular tour. Christian was amazing. He was very patient with my husband who didn’t want to do a lot of walking. He was still able to show us the highlights even with our slow pace. Would highly recommend this tour.
Fernando was very professional, informative & knowledgeable! Would easily recommend to anyone!
Wow!!! Iguazu Falls was far superior than our expectations. A huge thank to our guide, Eduardo. From the pick up at our hotel, Eduardo gave us history of the local area and the falls, what wildlife we might see, and instruction for how our day would play out. We visited both the Brazilian and Argentinian sides, which were equally spectacular. We also did the rafting which was exhilarating. Expect to get wet and take a spare set of clothes. The day was big, however made all the more efficient having a knowledgeable guide having a very concise journey to see as much as we could possibly fit in. Seriously spectacular!!!
Leandro was an exceptional guide! Our family experience throughout the day was enjoyable, efficient, and exceeded all expectations. Leandro was punctual, kind, accommodating and knowledgeable. We would recommend this trip to anyone visiting Iguassu Falls. Such a great value and made this the highlight of our vacation!
We spent our day with Leonardo who was such a joy to have along with us. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the national parks and the area in general. He made sure we were able to see all of the sites we wanted to see, guided us to some extra areas and even gave us recommendations for meals after our tour was over. He was very funny, had us laughing all day, helped us practice our Portuguese, and we would highly recommend him and his tour.
Superb. Went with Nicholas. Everything went perfectly smooth
I was originally going to try and do a self tour, but only having one day, I knew I'd only be able to do one side. I'm so glad we booked this tour because we were able to do both sides in one day. Cristian was prompt, spoke great English, and took us to both sides of the falls and had priority access at border crossing and the national parks. We left at 7am and were back in our hotel room by 2:30 and felt like we saw absolutely everything. Thanks again Cristian for an unforgettable day!
We had a fantastic day visiting both the Brazilian and Argentine sides of the Iguazu Falls with our guide, Willian. Everything was perfectly organized, and the tour was flexible, allowing us to enjoy the day at our own pace. The border crossings were smooth and quick, and the communication before the tour was excellent. They even accommodated our request to change the tour date due to the weather forecast, which we really appreciated. We highly recommend this tour.
Planning a private tour saved hours of planning and took the complexity out of trying to figure this all out ourselves. Fernando was absolutely amazing in directing us at every step to ensure we got the best photos, avoided crowds, and spotting wildlife. You really don’t have to worry about anything and just enjoy the falls for the day! These were some of our reflections of why we were so glad we booked this particular tour: -They also arranged a fishing tour for us, which was amazing! -They coordinated airport transport (Which was the same price as a taxi, and don’t plan on uber from IGU if you’re staying in Argentina) -Fernando was so flexible and patient if we wanted to stop and take random pics or speed through crowds. -It would have been torture being on a tour bus and herded like cattle. -As Americans who don’t speak Portuguese or Spanish, and who have horrible cell service in this area, I can’t imagine having to figure out all the directions, border crossings, tickets and fees, etc. on our own. It was SO nice having a local on our side! Overall, Cafalls far exceeded our expectations. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone coming to visit this magical part of the world.
Christian wss fabulous in communicating the details up to the date of the excursion. Eduardo, a third generstion tour guide from the region, is brillisnt an excellent to work with from the perfect departure to the thrilling travels through Brazil and Argentina around the 200+ cataracts with a drop off at my request at the Bird Park. A perfect guide—i had freedom but never felt unsafe or clueless Highly recommended!
We toured Iguazú Falls on both the Brazilian and Argentina sides with Cristian from CaFalls, and it was an unforgettable experience. He expertly guided us to the best viewpoints, allowing us to appreciate the falls from many different perspectives. Cristian was incredibly patient, giving us plenty of time to take photos and fully enjoy the spectacular scenery. Throughout the tour, he shared fascinating information about the history and geography of the falls, making the experience both educational and enjoyable. As an experienced birding guide, Cristian was also knowledgeable about the local flora, fauna, and birdlife. He pointed out birds and other wildlife that we would have easily missed on our own, adding another dimension to the tour. We had an amazing time exploring Iguazú Falls and would love to visit again. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and passionate guide, we highly recommend Cristian and CaFalls for an unforgettable Iguazú Falls experience.
We spent the full day (8am to 6pm) with Nicolas seeing both the Argentina and Brazil side. He had great communication skills (he was Brazilian but we could easily communicate in English with him) and was prompt and patient with us. We did the boat trip on the Argentina side and it took over 2 hours and he patiently waited for us with no problems and was very accommodating when we had questions. It’s possible to do all of this DIY but if you’re strapped for time, it’s much easier to have some guide you through the whole process and I would recommend this company and Nicolas as well.
Eduardo was fantastic! He had the experience to start small and build to a huge ending. He provided interesting and informative information along the way and was great company. He knew the all the tricks to avoid the large crowds. Probably the best tour I’ve been on out of dozens around the world!
Eduardo was fantastic! He did the tour in the best order possible starting small and ending with a bang providing information and casual conversation throughout the day. He knew how to circumvent the crowds very effectively and make it a very enjoyable experience.
This is an experience not to be missed. The falls are beautiful It was made all the better by our guide, Christian! He was so knowledgeable and personable! By the time we finished he felt more like a close friend. A bonus was that he handled all of the admissions ( skipping long lines) and border crossings. He communicated well in advance of our trip so we were certain we had everything we needed. A truly wonderful experience- recommended highly!
Christian was great!! Took the best care of all the details from getting us across the border to making sure we were aware of slippery areas to avoid falls. Very knowledgeable and entertaining with humor!
Christian was an amazing guide. Knowledgeable, accommodating, on time, prepared with water and ponchos, fun etc! Ask for Cristian. The Falls were beautiful! A must if you are in the area!
Eduardo was an amazing tour guide and we had such a great time. Highly recommend :)
The whole experience was awesome in the traditional sense of the word. My guide Fernando was perfect and could not have been more helpful - it was truly excellent and I will never forget the experience.
Fernando was the perfect guide - he could not have done any more. We started on the Argentinian side in the morning and began early to avoid the crowds - then came to the Brazilian side after lunch. The whole experience was mind-blowing and like nothing else - made all the better by the helpfulness, kindness and knowledge of Fernando. Highly recommended.
What a wonderful experience from start to finish!! Without Christian we simply could not have experienced the guided tour of Iguazu Falls to the fullest. Christian picked us up from our hotel in air conditioned car and set off to the Argentinian side of the falls passing through the border without any issues. He is a most knowledgeable and trustworthy person who has many stories to share. He guided us effortlessly to see both sides of the waterfalls in what can only be described as a truly smooth operation. Worth the booking as makes it seamless. You will not be disappointed I promise!!!
This tour was so AMAZING!!! Cristian made our experience very enjoyable and made us feel comfortable and at home. He provided great knowledge and experience with over 20 years of guiding. My family enjoyed the experience immensely! Cristian even helped us seem some wildlife with a family of Toucans in the trees and other wildlife along the way. Unforgettable memories that we will have in this beautiful country and the beautiful Falls. Thank you so much!
Christian was the best guide he was informative fun and safe. We all had a great time one of the best days ever
Beautiful and a lot of fun. Guide was great.
Amazing private tour for solo travelers. You get to see both sides of the falls and both equally beautiful. Special thanks to Cristian very punctual and excellent English. Looking after his guest as a family; and had a wonderful time chatting along the way HIGHLY RECOMMEND thank you 🙏
Eduardo was an incredible guide for me and my adult son. He was full of knowledge and the personal touch made the experience even more special. Our first time in Brazil/Iguazu Falls was all the more memorable by booking this tour and not having to compete with a other tourists for rides, directions and information. I would highly recommend this tour as well as our guide Eduardo!
Me and my 12 friends had the best day with Christian! He was so nice and gave us all the time we needed at the different spots. He was very helpful when we had some difficulties at the ticket office but he helped with no problems and we had the best day! He took photos of us all together and made sure we got vip treatment. We got the park to our selves after hours so all the tourists were gone and you could get beautiful pictures without having to wait in line for the views! All in all great day and great experience!!!!!
This was such a good experience! Our guide Christian was amazing at explaining in english and making sure we understood the plan throughout the day!🌞🌊 he also made sure we came as the first to the Argentinian side and as the last to the Brazilian side so we avoided the big crowds - which was AMAZING we almost had the views for ourselves! This tour is the best!🇧🇷🇦🇷
Me and my friends had a great experience. Shoutout to Christian who was the best tour guide. He was so helpful and sweet. I highly recommend:)
The tour was amazing! Christian did such a great job. We were ahead of all the other turist, and almost never waited in any lines. It felt like we had the entire place to ourselves. Christian was a great guide, with really good energy, and helped with everything on the way. If anyone is considering a trip to iguaçu, this is the company to choose!
This was an amazing experience and Leandro is an incredible guide! He brought us to both the Argentinian and Brazilian sides of the falls in a single day and pointed out animals along the way! Not having to worry about getting transportation across the border or waiting in line was a great quality of life improvement for visiting the falls on a tight schedule. Leandro was knowledgeable, funny, and a general joy to be around
This was a wonderful day tour of both Brasil & Argentina Falls and. Our tour guide was Douglas. He was exceptionally knowledgeable & pleasant. We enjoyed his company. He suggested taking the Dry boat tour when in Brasil side & we are so glad we did! I highly recommend taking this tour!
Wonderful day with Eduardo. He was full of ideas and history. I am a senior and he was very attentive to my needs. We saw the best the area can show. It was a day well spent. He is a nice guy.
We booked a private tour with Cristian and it was fantastic. He collected us at 7am and we were the first to arrive at the devil’s throat so no crowds. He guided us through the two sides of the falls with time for lunch and stops as needed. He is a fabulous guide. We strongly recommed you request him
Had a great day touring the Argentina side of the falls. Views were amazing. Our guide made it very easy taking care of our tickets and boat reservation. We walked at a good pace and saw so much.
It was an excellent tour covering both the Brazilian and Argentinian sides. Christian was a fantastic guide—he did an outstanding job helping us navigate the overwhelming maze of tourist lines. The boat ride offered incredible views of the falls and was a definite highlight. The Brazilian side was extremely crowded, but Christian skillfully guided us through the masses with ease. The Argentinian side provided a different and equally unique perspective of the falls. It was a memorable day and I highly recommend this tour, guide and the operator.
