Overview
Take a trip to Iguassu Falls on your Argentina Vacation
Iguassu Falls are world-famous waterfalls located on the Iguazú River on the border of Brazil and Argentina. The falls are shared by two UNESCO World Heritage-listed national parks, Brazil’s Iguaçu National Park and Argentina’s Iguassu National Park, which can be added to a number of Goway’s Argentina tours.
Legend has it that the falls were created by a god called Mobi in a fit of rage. Mobi intended to marry a beautiful woman named Naipi who was in love with Tarobá, a mortal. Naipi and Taroba escaped together in a canoe angering Mobi who sliced the river, creating the waterfalls thus ensuring the young lovers would fall to their deaths.
Iguassu Falls are some of the most spectacular waterfalls in the world. They are shared by three different countries, Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay. It has the largest average annual flow of water, more than any other waterfall in the world. There are numerous islands along the 2.7 kilometre/1.7-mile edge which divide the falls into various separate waterfalls. It is hard to say just how many exist as the number fluctuates between 150-300, depending on water levels. One of the most incredible sights is Devil’s Throat where fourteen falls drop some 107 metres/350 feet with such force that there is always a 30-metre/100-foot cloud of spray above. You can take a train running along the Argentinean side to where the mist and the roar are the most spectacular. Also, you can walk to the “Devil’s Throat” and take a boat ride almost underneath the falling waters. The surrounding parks are equally stunning, hosting unique jungle ecosystems that house immense bird and animal life that are just waiting to be explored on an Argentina vacation. It is recommended to spend at least a day on each side of Iguassu, even though about three-quarters of the total length of the falls is on the Argentinean side. Explore one of the world's most stunning settings. Book one of Goway's Iguassu Falls tours today. You won't be disappointed.
The Iguassu Falls area is generally very tropical with the warm and humid weather making it a great place to visit year-round.

What do the experts say?
The best time to visit Argentina depends on the region you want to see, but Spring (September-November) and Autumn (March-May) are generally ideal for visiting Buenos Aires, Mendoza, and Iguazú Falls, offering pleasant weather and beautiful scenery. For Patagonia, the summer months (December-March) are best for hiking and accessible trails, though you can visit other times of year with appropriate clothing.
If you are lucky enough to visit during August, make sure you attend the iconic Buenos Aires Tango Festival, which fills the city with performances, lessons, and open-air parties celebrating the birthplace of Tango.
While football (soccer) is extremely popular, the official national sport is Pato, a game involving horseback riders trying to grab a duck or a similar ball.
A unique local experience is visiting El Ateneo Grand Splendid in Buenos Aires, one of the largest and most beautiful bookstores in the world. It’s set inside a former theatre.
Argentina’s climate varies widely: the north is subtropical, the Pampas are temperate, the Andes are cooler, and Patagonia is cold and windy. Travellers should pack accordingly for each region.

ExcellentBased on 5,306 ReviewsWe have used Goway several times to plan simple & more complicated trips. The last 2 trips we worked with Brooke Theron who is extremely customer focused. She listens well & is alway flexible to look at alternatives. We will continue using this representative & Goway.
Our only criticism is that they do not break down the various costs of a trip which makes tipping very awkward. It can also create a sense of " mistrust" when all the costs are not transparent. Cheryl HayesOur trip to Switzerland was an amazing experience. Our travel agent at GoWay, Bo was so helpful in helping my husband Louie plan just what we wanted to do on this trip. Taking the trains thru the county was easy by the many hours Louie and Bo worked on this. Also our helicopter ride in Zermatt on my birthday was just unbelievable. Flying around the Matterhorn and the Alps is one flight we will never forget. Thanks Bo for setting this up. The trip was one incredible adventure that we will never forget. Thanks again Bo, Lynn Gerber. Lynn GerberWe booked a Goway tour to Botswana and Zimbabwe and it was excellent. We worked with Brooke, the Goway represntative, to set up the tour and she was an outstanding agent who answered any questions we had very quickly and completely. Her hotel recommendation for the additional night we stayed was pefect.
Goway hires a local tour group, Jenman Safaris, to lead the safari in the 2 countries. The tour itself was amazing...the lodges that we stayed at were very nice and the food was great (except for one lodge's food). The Goway itinerary was slightly different than the actual Jenman Safari itinerary but most of the sites that we went to were the same as listed on the Goway itinerary. I would use Goway again because their choice of a local tour group was very good...nice lodges/camps and good food and knowledgeable tour guides.Ma FaOur GoWay tour representative, Michael Keon, was on top of all of our concerns and questions in a professional manner and we look forward to working with him in the future. Michael was very easy to work with and treated us like family.ThomasMatthew handled my honeymoon couple's very specific African itinerary like a pro! My clients went to four different travel agents who only wanted to send them on safaris. My clients had already done safaris and were specific on what they wanted to do and see. Matthew hit the nail on the head! Highly recommend!Amanda SchottSeamless prompt excellent communication from our first query about a possible destination to follow-up after the trip ended. Shalini’s knowledge, advice and enthusiasm were invaluable. JaneJacqueline Fagioli from Goaway Travel is excellent and very helpful and supportive. VenessaOur travel agent, Melissa Moses, created the perfect itinerary for our recent holiday to Portugal. Melissa had also planned our previous trip to England/Scotland. We have a great deal of confidence in her ability as she really listens to what we are looking for and she caters the plans according to our comfort levels and interests. customerJacqueline F. made our trip exceptional. Everything she planned or reserved worked out as it was supposed to. Croatia was amazing and I feel we were able to explore a lot of it because of Jacqueline.AllenThis was the first time we had utilized Goway. We wanted a custom itinerary for a 3 week Italy, Athens and Greek Island adventure. Edwina Brislane was receptive to our goals for the trip, had helpful suggestions and reacted well to our requested revisions. Lisa Dachuk helped "tie a ribbon" on the trip and ensured we had considered all aspects of the experience. Lisa dealt quickly with a couple of requests while on the trip and celebrated a successful trip with us.
We enjoyed working with both Edwina and Lisa. Their knowledge and enthusiasm contributed to our very memorable trip.Dan & Gail
