    Don’t get me wrong this trip is amazing BUT this company charges approx 40% more than the price of the tickets just to book it for you. No one from the tour company ever showed up they just send you an address to make your way to helisul in Foz do iguassu and when you arrive the person (who doesn’t work for the tour company) on the desk actually told me it’s $430 a person for a ticket, approx £60 and this tour is charging almost 40% more! Just get a taxi to helisul and book this trip yourself!

    I really enjoyed the tour, it was very organised and the group was small (6 people) which made the experience better. The guide, Rumon was really good and knowledgeable about the place. The only downside is we didn't do boat ride which was included in the price due to water conditions. I have requested a partial refund because of this.

    Great value. Can see the waterfalls from an angle that is nothing less than spectacular. Wish it was a few minutes longer. Staff was professional. Don't sit in the middle seat in back for worst view, especially to take pictures. Maybe they can allow you to pay extra to sit in the only front seat.
