This was a really fun... - This was a really fun small group tour! Bruna is super friendly and knowledgeable and it was great to see Paraguay if only for a few hours. The museum was closed so we visited an animal sanctuary instead which aligned more with my interests anyway. We also made a short stop at a small shop selling homemade goods like yogurt, breads and cookies and I had one of the best empanadas of my life. No real wait times crossing the border in either direction. Comfortable transportation and skilled driver.

This was an excellent day... - This was an excellent day trip and we were really impressed with Bruna! The communication was excellent throughout, convenient pick up and drop off, and she is a wealth of information on the geography, biology, and history of the region. Anyone booking should be aware that you may get stuck in a long border queue getting into Paraguay, but she kept us entertained and educated throughout so it passed very quickly! The tour takes you to varied places west of the border, enough to provide a good flavour of the country and see how different it feels from Brazil, so it’s well worth the trip.

Fantastic day tour, recommended - Whilst in Iguacu Falls, we thought it would be fun to hop over the border to Paraguay, but wanted to avoid the crazy shopping of Ciudad del Este. We found this tour online and weren't really sure what to expect, but it was fantastic and exceeded our expectations. The communication from our tour guide, Bruna, was excellent, and we were picked up from our hotel at 7am to beat the queues getting across the bridge to Paraguay. After that we headed slightly north to do a tour of the Itaipu Dam, an enormous hydro power scheme, the second largest in the world. The tour was very interesting, both to see the immense size of the dam and power station, but also to understand the history of how it came about. After that we went to the Tekotopa wildlife centre, which we weren't expecting. It had recently opened, and was a highlight of the day. The centre was extremely professional and well run, and we saw puma, jaguar, toucan, blue macaw, tapir, emu and loads of other wildlife. You could see the wildlife close up and get great photos, and our guide was very knowledgeable in explaining about what we were seeing. After that it was off to the Saltos del Monday waterfalls, which were very impressive. (a bit overshadowed by their proximity to Iguacu, but if it wasn't for that these falls would be a huge attraction). Lastly, we went to the Tres Fronteras lookout, where you can stand in Paraguay and see both Brazil and Argentina just across the river, then back to our hotel. (including an additional stop that we asked for on the way, for souvenirs) . Bruna was an excellent guide, the van we travelled in was spacious and modern and there was a driver as well as a guide. We had a great time and would highly recommend this tour.

Paraguay day - We had a really good day in Paraguay. This was a really good trip. The other person on our tour overslept, so we ended up with a private tour which was nice. Bruna was really nice and enthusiastic. She was a really good tour guide and told us a lot about Paraguay. The queue getting over the bridge looked really long, but it did go faster than we expected it to. The whole day was really interesting. We learnt a lot about the history of Paraguay, and the dam was really interesting and the waterfall was very beautiful and had lots of lovely butterflies. Bruna took us to a vegetarian restaurant that was able to cater for my husband who is gluten-free. The meal was filling for a very good price. The queue on the way back was longer maybe about 45 minutes but we think that is probably just part of the experience. overall a really great day and if you have extra time in Iguazu, this is a great way to experience a new country. Bruna also bought us some of the matte tea to try which was great because we saw lots of people drinking it and we wouldn’t have known what it was. Thank you for a great day.

Saltos Monday falls trip - The only thing I didn’t like was long wait in crossing the border and coming back. We rally loved the whole tour of power plant, jaguar sanctuary and the 3 border landmark Paraguay side. Our guide Diego was excellent and our driver was both great and helpful. We tried Paraguayan lunch which was excellent. If you are vegan you would have loved it if not vegan then you may not like it. Since we already visited Iguazu falls, Saltos Monday gave a different perspective. Since part of bucket list is visiting great waterfalls so I will count Saltos Monday falls must see. Our ride was very comfortable the tour operators really planned it well. Since I travel cashless, I always feel bad as I am not able to give tip for excellent service received. But this day and age many folks travel cashless just having peace of mind. Anyhow that is why I want to provide excellent review, if you visit Iguazu falls, trip to Saltos Monday is a must.

A nice morning in Paraguay - This was an interesting short trip across the border to Paraguay. We were picked up promptly at our pick up point and it took us about 45 minutes to get across the border. The first stop was the Itaipu dam, which is a grand structure. We then headed to Saltos Monday, which was a very nice stop. Our guide then took us to the three corners location on the Paraguay side for some photos and then we headed back into the city for a short walk through one of the markets and a lunch stop at a great little place serving excellent empanadas and Paraguayan soup.
