How much would it be to stay in accommodation before the tour and possibly a day or 2 after the tour?

The tour offers 3 kinds of accommodation for this tour: -Shared dorm in a Hostel -Single Room in a Hostel -Single Room in a 3* Hotel. Please let us know what is the type of accommodation and room you are looking for. If you see the base price, it is in Shared Dorm, if you look for other accomodation, the price f the tour will increase in proportion.

What type of shared accommodations are included, Hostel/Hotel? Is this an independent tour or Guided? What is the extra cost for airfare from Lima, Peru to Buenos Aires?

You can choose the kind of accommodation you feel most comfortable with. We can offer you a shared dorm in hostel, private room in hostel or private room in hotel 3*/4*/5* (Price will vary according to the accommodation you choose). This is an independent tour, which includes shared activities. But you won't follow the same itinerary as other people nor will there be a travel coordinator.

Want to know of any tours covering Rio with Iguazu and Manaus Amazon lasting 7 to 8 days

Regarding the amount of days, are you flexible with it, to make the trip last 12 days approx? This way, we can make all the destinations fit without rushing. If you strictly need the trip to last 8 days, we will figure out a way, so you can see as much as possible. Also, could you please let me know which kind of accommodation would work best for you and your companion: shared dorm, private room in hostel or private room in hotel?

We really like this tour but we don't want to do the long bus journey, can we upgrade to flight to the falls? Or can we book them separately?

I can build a tailormade itineraray without the overnight buses for you, and you could book the flights separately from this tour. Is that okay with you? I would like to know: which kind of accommodation you would prefer (dorm, hostel or hotel), how many people are travelling (are there any children?), would you like us to include transfers to and from the airports?

What hotels category?

The accommodations we work with are: Dorm Hostel, Private room in Hostel and Budget Hotel, which are usually 2 or 3 Stars.

Will there be any hotel changes in Iguazu? If I enter Argentina via Buenos Aires then travel to Iguazu, visit Argentina side, back to Argentina hotel. The next morning, check out hotel, visit Brazil side (means exit Argentina enter Brazil) then check in to the Brazil hotel, is this possible?

Yes, it's absolutely possible. On one day you would visit the Argentine side of the falls and return to your accommodation in Argentina. The next day, you would visit the Brazilian side and then check in at the accommodation in Brazil. There might be a small price difference for this change, but nothing significant.

Can we please have some more information regarding accomdation for double private rooms in hostels.

we use the following hostels for our tours and they offer private rooms: Rio: Cabanacopa or Sociatel Copacabana Iguazu: Beer Hostel and Hotel Buenos Aires: Milhouse Hostel

How much will the tour cost if we take the 3 star hotel accomodation

The price per person but in 3* Hotel instead of a Hostel is 1.349 USD. Double room or Twin room. The other services remain the same.

Is it possible to modify the tour itinerary to skip certain days?

Yes, it is possible to customize the tour to exclude certain days; please specify which days you'd like to omit for a revised plan.

Is there is any assistance at the Brazilian border?

Assistance will be provided during the crossing of the Brazilian border as part of a group traveling by regular bus.

The tour itself was well organized and put together but I had to add a lot of optional extras along with hotel upgrades (as opposed to hostels) to fill up my free days and also to make this worth my while and see lots of different things while I was down there. I’m also glad that I flew from Iguazu to Rio instead of the overnight bus because 19 hours from Buenos Aires to Iguazu on a bus was too much. The company advertises a low price for the tour for this reason. The fees to enter Iguazu national parks are also not included.Show more

Reply from: Hi Travel Argentina
Dear Keith, hi, thanks so much for your feedback. The private driver was indeed aware of the delay of the flight from NZ and has been waiting for you almost 2 hours after flight´s landing with a sign with your name on it. We called you and email you but, of course, understandable, you were not to be reached. When there was no one else in the airport we had to tell the driver to go back to town. We were worried for you and we only found out about you being ok when we contacted the hostel. Such a pity we could not connect, we were all concerned! In reference to the bus from Iguazu to Rio, it normally runs very smooth. We are so sorry to hear that this happened, it is very unusual. We hope you have enjoyed your trip despite the couple of hiccups! Very best! HI Travel Team

  I want to book this trip in a couple days, but still have a few concerns about accommodations. I notice the restrictions on hostel stays and at my age, I don't want to experience those things. Can you say where the pickup spots are going to be in Buenos Aires, Puerto Iguana and Rio de Janeiro?
- Hi Travel ArgentinaOperator•Written December 2025
  Before booking, let us know which kind of accommodation you feel most comfortable with. If you do not want hostels, we can work with 3* hotels. Regarding the pickups: in Buenos Aires you will be picked up at the Airport. In Puerto Iguazú, when you arrive you will be picked up at the bus station. When you leave, a transfer will take you from your accommodation to the bus station. When you arrive to Rio, transfer to the accommodation is not included. When you leave, you have a transfer included from your hotel to Rio Airport.
