Iguazu Falls

3/11-13 We flew from Cusco back to Lima, picked up our stored luggage from the hotel and boarded our flight to Buenos Aires. We stayed just one night in our BA hotel – Riva Urban Lofts – stored our luggage again and flew from the little domestic airport over to Iguazu Airport for our three day tour.

We have a tour through 01Argentina and they have arranged everything. Hotel, transport and tours. $860 total for both of us 3 days/2 nights. Our hotel is Arami right in town. Easy walk to shops and restaurants. Not too impressed with the town but the falls were amazing. We toured the falls all the first full day. Did the train to Garganta del Diablo then walked the trail loop to Devil’s Throat. Then we took the train again to another area and walked a much longer loop called the Upper trail. About 3 miles in all. Bob did not do the second trail but enjoyed the rest in the shade. It was very hot and humid.

Again, these falls are huge. MASSIVE in fact. Pictures don’t describe but here are some:

One fall in the 200+ total

Friendly butterflies

Lots of people

Proof that we were there

Exploring the world has always been my dream. These aren't "vacations". They are travels to every corner far and wide. We are 'budget' travelers and always travel light. Our goal is always to get to know the locals and avoid tourist areas. We do use cruise ships but not in the normal way. We don't drink nor gamble so that saves us lots of money. We might only see each port for one full day but have been known to return later on our own. View all posts by Marla Vannice
