Puerto Iguazú: Iguazú Falls Adventure with 4WD & Boat Ride

1.Iguazú Falls Adventure with 4WD & Boat Ride

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 88 reviews · 12 hours · from $145Our pick

Spend 12 hours exploring Iguazú National Park from Puerto Iguazú with a bilingual Spanish and English guide. You’ll see Devil’s Throat and the Superior Circuit, then ride an advertised 4WD vehicle along the Yacaratiá trail before taking a rubber boat through rapids toward the Three Musketeers Falls.

“Esta excursión fatal. Es una estafa. El proveedor del lugar no responde. Nunca me recogieron en el punto de recogida señalado. Nunca se pusieron en contacto conmigo ni responden los correos electrónicos ni los mensajes. Me cobraron muchísimo dinero 390 USD por 3 personas. Y EN CATARATAS DE IGUAZÚ NADIE LOS CONOCE Y EL MISMO TOUR POR PERSONA CUESTA 60 dólares.”

3 hour 4×4 tour around Puerto Madryn

2.3 hour 4×4 tour around Puerto Madryn

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 75 reviews · 3 to 4 hours (approx.) · from $100Best value

Join Catalejo Travel for a 3 to 4 hour 4x4 outing from Puerto Madryn, led by guides such as Eduardo, Ed, Augusto, or Cynthia. Expect beach tracks, dunes, cliff views, Punta Loma sea lions, native plants, and coffee or tea beside the coast. The ride is exciting, dusty, and not designed for soft seats.

“Brilliant, started in the town, headed out to the sand dunes and along the coast on off road tracks . It was an amazing experience, Ed was great, chatted and very informative of the area. Great coffee stop with sweet bakes and a fabulous view. Could possibly have included a visit to one of the original Welsh settlements but not sure how far they were.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 67 reviews · 3 hours · from $148

Travel by 4x4 from El Calafate across the Patagonian steppe to Lake Argentino and Punta Walichu. An English- or Spanish-speaking guide, including guides such as Sergio, Nacho, Guillaume, or Federico, explains Tehuelche culture, rock art, geology, and early expeditions before a traditional lunch with wide lake views.

“Um passeio muito bonito pelas montanhas e margens do Lago Argentino. O relato das culturas nativas foi muito bem apresentado pelo guia Sergio na visita ao sítio Arqueológico, que infelizmente teve seus hieróglifos parcialmente destruídos por vândalos no passado. O almoço foi bem peculiar em uma reentrância nas paredes de granito à beira do Lago.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 38 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $145

Spend about eight hours leaving Ushuaia by road, ATV, and 4x4 tracks. Stop at Carbajal Valley, cross Paso Garibaldi, then reach Escondido and Fagnano lakes for snacks, lunch, and views of the Magallanes fault line. A local guide leads the outing.

“Admittedly our Spanish is lacking but when we reserved the trip I included this information. We were grouped with 4 other fluent Spanish speakers. Our guide, Diego, did his best to say everything in Spanish and then English, but this was a difficult task for him. I would highly recommend for the operator to try to group similar language speakers together. Overall the tour was great and the park is breathtakingly beautiful.”
