12-Day Brazil & Argentina Tour: Rio, Iguazu Falls & Buenos Aires
Rio, Iguazu Falls & Buenos Aires
12 daysA Tailor-Made 12-Day Brazil & Argentina Journey of Cities, Culture & Nature
Presented by Jhimy Sante, Your Local Expert
Combine Rio de Janeiro, both sides of Iguazu Falls and Buenos Aires in one customizable 12-day journey through Brazil and Argentina. Start with Rio's landmarks, beaches and city life, continue to a focused three-day Iguazu program, then finish with several days in Buenos Aires for culture, neighborhoods, food and a relaxed urban finale.
The route is designed to simplify the Iguazu logistics: arrive through Foz do Iguacu airport in Brazil, stay at a single hotel base in Puerto Iguazu, visit the Argentine side on two days, then visit the Brazilian side and Parque das Aves on Day 8 before returning to Argentina for luggage and flying from IGR to Buenos Aires.
The pace stays relaxed-balanced. Exact flight times, border-crossing times, airport margins, park access and optional activities are confirmed with the travel date, not promised in advance.
