Well paced over 6 days with enough free time to not feel herded. No complaints about any of the hotels — all of them well placed. Would send friends their way.

Hotels were a step below what I expected for the price. The lead was calm and knew when to slow the group down.

Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Accommodation was a notch better than the price suggested. The cooking was a genuine surprise — better than most places we'd have picked ourselves. Worth every rupee.

Questions people ask
Indian passport holders do need a Brazil visa, and it must be arranged before you travel — there is no visa on arrival at the Iguazu land border. Without it you see the Argentine side only, which is why the budget operator makes that day optional.
