Review of Iguazú Falls from Puerto Iguazú with Devil's Throat, 4WD jungle trail, rapids, and boat access to the falls.

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.”
