The Best Machu Picchu Iguazu Falls Tours

By Linda Ruiz


South America is synonymous with adventure. It's thick jungles, rugged mountains and mysterious ancient cultures have been attracting adventurers for centuries. The continent is huge so fitting in the highlights can be time consuming and expensive. An organised tour is a great way to have an adventure and see the highlights. Machu Picchu Iguazu Falls tours have the best of Argentina and Peru in one easy trip.

Machu Picchu is on the bucket list of many of us. The ancient Inca citadel is the stuff of legend and is still puzzling scholars and visitors with its mysterious structures. Nobody knows exactly why it was built and what it was used for so a guided trip is a fantastic mystery tour. Archaeological work is carried out all the time so new ideas and new findings are constantly enriching the story.

The archaeological site is situated on a remote mountaintop in the humid high jungle. To reach it, tourists have to walk or take a train journey. This journey surely must rank as one of the best train journeys in the world as it passes from glaciers to steaming jungle in a couple of hours. Visitors can stay in the nearest town, Aguas Calientes or do the whole thing in one day.

Peru is a huge country with lots of impressive nature and a wealth of cultural activities. Adventure seekers can go climbing, rafting, paragliding, hiking and even dune buggy riding. These days Lima, the capital city is considered the top gastronomic destination on the continent. It has a unique food culture and some of the best seafood in the world.

From Peru it is possible to travel overland or by air to Argentina to see Iguazu Falls, a truly breathtaking place. The falls are situated on the border with Brazil in an area of amazing natural beauty. There are nearly three hundred waterfalls of various sizes which make up Iguazu. They can be viewed from walkways and viewing platforms and also by boat.

Iguazu Falls is the highlight of a trip to Argentina. There are around two hundred and seventy waterfalls in one place ranging from the small to the thundering Devil's Throat. Walkways are positioned in and around the falls so that visitors can easily walk around to view them all. There are also trails through the surrounding forest to see the many types of flora and fauna. You can also cross the border into Brazil to view the falls from the other side of the river. Many people do this as it gives a panoramic view of the whole area.

These days South America is considered a largely safe destination but it is not as developed as other destinations in Asia, Europe and the United States. Travelling independently can be challenging and time consuming, especially if you do not speak Spanish. Taking an organised tour is the perfect way to see exactly what you want without the hassle.

Organised trips are a great way to see everything you want without the hassle. Having an experienced guide will make your trip smoother and more interesting. They know all the best places and the shortcuts and tricks that will make your holiday truly memorable. Visiting both Argentina and Peru in one trip can be simple and problem free.
