What a lovely day.
This trip was amazing. I highly recommend this tour. Take a long rain coat with hood & protect your cell phone. You will get wet! Our tour guide was there the whole time following the group making sure no one was left behind. We had a certain amount of time which was more than enough to walk out to the 3 different viewing points of the falls & take pictures & to experience the sights, sounds, & animals. We stopped an hour for lunch. Be aware the falls do close when water gets too high & the off season Nov-April. We were there the last week of July 2026.

A very DISHONEST company
Please, under no circumstances, do not use this tour operator. I made a booking with them and entered my hotel for a pick up location. The booking allowed my hotel to go through as one of their pickup destinations. Then at the last minute they send me a message stating that they do not pick up at my hotel and that I would need to meet them at another location. They offered me a cancellation which I told them I wanted as I was not able to meet at their pick up point. Then they turn around and state that I cancelled within 24 hours so they would not give me my money back. They had two days to advise me that my hotel was not in their pickup area but waited until the last minute to let me know and now will not refund me. They are a very, dishonest company. Please do not use them.
Response from the operator: Dear Lisa, We sincerely regret the inconvenience you experienced with your booking and apologise for any confusion that occurred. We understand how frustrating a last minute change in pick-up details can be, and we apologise for not informing you of the pick-up area limitation in advance. To clarify the situation, your booking was made through Viator, which means that the cancellation and refund process is handled directly through their platform. We are pleased to inform you that your refund has already been processed and you should have received the corresponding amount in your account. We deeply regret that this situation has affected your experience and thank you for sharing your feedback, which helps us to continue to improve our service. We hope that in the future we will be able to provide you with a smoother and more pleasant experience. Best regards, Irina.

Prepare to be Amazed
The minibus picked us up right on time and took us to the Argentine side of Iguazu Falls. The falls are overwhelming to see and the trails to the various vistas were easy and interesting walks through the jungle. If you’ve only visited the Brazilian side of the falls, you’ll find the Argentine side a much different experience. Best thing to do is do both sides. Our guide was knowledgeable, bilingual and very friendly. It’s a lot of walking, so bring good shoes and bug spray and,prepare,to be amazed.

The nature is not to be missed, but the guide was basically someone to keep us herded
Beautiful views. Stunning waterfalls! We would have liked a little more science and history background.

Iguazu Falls: Argentinian Side and Rainforest Train Full-Day Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Puerto Iguazu.
How much does Iguazu Falls: Argentinian Side and Rainforest Train Full-Day Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $41 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Puerto Iguazu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Iguazu Falls: Argentinian Side and Rainforest Train Full-Day Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Puerto Iguazu is not rushed.
Is Iguazu Falls: Argentinian Side and Rainforest Train Full-Day Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 17 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Puerto Iguazu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Iguazu Falls: Argentinian Side and Rainforest Train Full-Day Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Iguazu Falls: Argentinian Side and Rainforest Train Full-Day Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Iguazu Falls: Argentinian Side and Rainforest Train Full-Day Tour?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Puerto Iguazu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Puerto Iguazu and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Iguazu Falls: Argentinian Side and Rainforest Train Full-Day Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Puerto Iguazu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Puerto Iguazu?
+
On Outty we rank every Puerto Iguazu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small group Falls Both Sides - Argentina and Brazil, The private Iguazu Falls Tour Brazil, Argentina in 1 day, Argentine Experience: Immersive Dinner & Wine Pairing in Iguazú. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Puerto Iguazu?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Puerto Iguazu?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
