Culture shock rating
Worried we’re going to shock your senses? Relax! We believe part of the fun of travel is immersing yourself in the destination and its culture, meeting the people, and learning what makes the place tick. We’ve got a wide range of tours with something for everybody. The cultural shock rating ranks how different the experience is from most Western cultures. But no matter the level, don’t worry, you’ll have a local, in-the-know guide with you every step of the way.
Low
Consider these tours your 101 intro to a place. Transportation might be private or a very comfortable public option, and the activities are usually visits to iconic sites and locations that are familiar to most Western cultures – but that will still give you fantastic insight into a destination.
Medium
Expect to rough it for parts of this tour, whether that’s on a packed public bus or in a local market off the tourist trail. There might be a few language barriers or unfamiliar cultural customs, and you’ll get an experience different from what you're used to at home.
High
You're out there in the global community! We’re going to take you down streets you’d rarely explore on your own, introduce you to local customs and languages, and take you for a ride in whatever transport is available. Get ready to take it as it comes, whatever comes. There might be a shock, but oh man, it’s worth it.
Physical rating
Worried our tours are too tough? Relax! From leisurely strolls to muscle-burning treks, we’ve got a wide range of tours with something for everybody. The physical grading gives you an idea of how much huffing and puffing you can expect on the tour.
Low
Slow and steady is all you need here. These tours have very limited physical activity, such as walking relatively flat streets, sites, or markets, and climbing in and out of the transport provided.
Medium
Not too hard, not too soft, these tours are just right! You can expect a bit of physical activity, but nothing overly challenging – perhaps walking up and down hills, riding a bike for up to 30 kilometers along mostly flat terrain, or jumping in a kayak for a gentle paddle on flat water.
High
Get ready for a workout! These tours are our most challenging and involve intense walking, hiking, kayaking, swimming, or bike riding. You could be making steep climbs by foot or pedal, or working your core in the water. We recommend you have a good level of fitness to join this tour.

You’re here — why not see Iguassu Falls from the Argentinian side too! We’ll start the day early, heading towards the Brazil-Argentina border and immigration control. Once across (make sure you have your visa and reciprocity fee, if necessary), we’ll drive for a mere five minutes to reach Puerto Iguazu, a small city of 50,000 inhabitants. Here we’ll visit a local bakery and have a real Argentinean experience: tasting empanadas! We’ll then hit the road again, driving for about 30 minutes to reach Iguazu National Park.
Upon arrival, we'll head to the train station, where we catch the train to Devil’s Throat Station on the Argentinian side of the falls. From here, we'll continue by foot on a catwalk (2,000 meters round trip) above the Iguassu River, where we'll be treated to an amazing view of the still waters before they make their descent over the falls into a raging torrent of water.
After this epic view of the Devil’s Throat, we'll grab the train back so we can access the Upper Circuit, where we'll enjoy even more spectacular views of the Iguassu River, before a 45-minute walk through the Iguassu Forest.
We'll continue our walk, this time on the Lower Circuit, introducing us to the Iguassu Canyon. At 1,400 meters, it's here that we really have the opportunity to feel the falls.
Once we are done, the last stop will be a break for lunch, with the options of empanadas if you didn’t get enough earlier! Or you can grab a sandwich our buffet meal. (Please note that lunch is not included in the price of the tour.)
From here, we'll head back to the town of Foz do Iguassu where our tour of Iguassu Falls Argentina will come to a close!
