The visiting area is made up of a single walkway circuit that faces the falls, offering a truly impressive panoramic view. The circuit measures 1,200 meters with steps that make it impossible to use a wheelchair. At the end of the circuit there is an elevator. The staircase to ascend has 130 steps in 220 meters in length.

Accommodation: Hotel, Standard - 3*

Accommodation Name: Jardin de Iguazu or similar

Meals Included: Breakfast

It is one of the most impressive walks in the whole world, ideal for those who find in intimate contact with nature the best way to relate to life.
The circuit takes place in a landscape observation walk, in which we will enter the geological formation of the Iguazú Falls from different observation points, living the experience of contact with this natural environment, which will allow us to appreciate how, constantly and for millions of years, more than 200 waterfalls form a natural event that places the human being in a unique and unrepeatable context.

The key is to start the excursion in the morning to increase the possibilities of observing the infinite manifestations of life and the vast diversity of species that inhabit the place: among which stand out multitudes of birds, butterflies, mammals, flowers and plants that give an exceptional framework for this experience. The objective of this walk is to make the most of the time outdoors and impregnate ourselves with the full potential of our senses from the conjunction of natural sounds, images, colors and aromas characteristic of the jungle.

This is achieved by taking a walk, with harmony, dedication, and without haste so that each visitor can fully enjoy each of the places that are visited.
The itinerary consists of three totally different routes with different areas of observation guided and coordinated under these instructions by guides from National Parks and naturalists who carry out their work under this objective vision of bringing man closer to nature and vice versa.

We suggest the following optional excursion:

Excellent tour. Somewhat disappointed in Colonia, but overall a great experience.

Qwerty worked with us to plan our honeymoon trip and it was fantastic. Constance was very helpful in giving us different options at different budgets. Transfers to and from airports and other destinations were prompt and professional. Accommodations were also booked through Qwerty and were of a consistently high standard. The events and excursions planned on our trip (eg. El calafate mini trekking and Buenos Aires City tour) were well chosen and the tour conductors were always professional and very welcoming. I would definitely recommend Qwerty travel to anyone.

I would recommend it to all the people who want to do this tour

06-Apr-2016

I spend an itinerary of what I wanted to do, which has been 2 days in Buenos Aires, from there to Iguazu domestic plane 2-3 days, domestic plane to El Calafate 2-3 days, from there to Ushuaia 2-3 days And from there again to Buenos Aires, where I took a Crucero de Costa Cruises, which made the following Itenerary Buenos-Aires-Montevideo-Rio de Janeiro-Salvador de Bahia-Maceió, crossing the Atlantic-Santa Cruz de Tenerife-Lanzarote- Malaga-Barcelona in total 33 days.- The trip has been a wonderful one, but what I want to emphasize is the terrestrial itinerary, Constance has been a professional As the glass of a pine tree, in all the transfers, in all the hotels, and in everything we need, it deserves a 10 out of 10, that is, the most, they had everything ready, they were in contact with me in all the itinerary and I would recommend it to all the people who want to do this tour, the fabulous Hotels (Iguazu "La Roca") El Calafate "Xelena" (Ushuaia "Los Acebos) would recommend that if they had more time to do Cordoba - Mendoza - Bariloche, but going back to the subject at hand - I repeat again that everything has been perfect.

The trip was very well planned with Qwerty’s guidance, with a good balance of pre-planned activities, and free days to just wander around. Constance from Qwerty worked to provide us different options that fit within our budget. Transfers from hotels, airports and excursion, were prompt and drivers were courteous and professional. Qwerty also provided us useful information like where to exchange currency, where to eat, and safety tips. Above all the excursions were well chosen, and the level of service was high consistently. Constance and Qwerty were a pleasure to deal with through-out the process. Thanks!

We have been in Argentina for a few days in which we have visited Buenos Aires, El Calafate with visits to glaciers in two boats and a stay in Nibepo Aike. In Ushuaia the visit to the national park and visit to the hammer island with the penguins. The experience has been great and unforgettable, the assistance services at airports, hotels, transfers, excursions all very well organised. In particular, I suffer from a physical disability, I thank you for making the inconveniences that may have arisen easier for me. Everything has been made easy for me everywhere. I have felt very happy and welcomed. I repeat a million thanks.
