[...] near the end of our trip, and we were taking a jet boat down the Parana River after being doused by Iguazu Falls. As we cruised the 7 miles down to our take out point, I couldn’t fathom having to go back [...]

I lived in Uruguay for a year and unfortunately didn’t manage to get up there! You have made me want to go back next year! That place looks so beautiful.

Look forward to getting their and doing a story on http://mytraveladventure.com.au.

Keep inspiring!

@ Rachel That is a long boat/bus ride! I would have loved to take the 20 hour bus ride down from Rio, but we just didn’t have enough time to do it.

I think almost everyone I have talked to stayed at the Hostel Inn. We had a friend in Rio book the trip through a travel agent though, and we ended up with the Foz Plaza. It worked out though, because the flights she found were 1/4 of the price for what we found looking back home.

I would have LOVED to go during a full moon, I can imagine the entire park had a very cool feel to it! Thanks for the comment!

@Kushal Thanks for the comment! I am glad to hear that I was able to see one of the best sites in South America. Although I would still like to go visit Machu Picchu on the next trip…

I spent about three months traveling in South America and nothing can compare to the Iguazu Falls..It was just so majestic and serene. It was truly a sight to see!

Rachel- I also stayed in Hostel Inn from on Argentina’s side. It was a decent place with good crowd and nice bar!

Sean- I’m glad you got to see this! Love reading your posts! It has inspired me to write about my travels. We have sort of a similar story..I quit my job last year amidst this economic crisis and went on a sort of a self-discovery and spiritual journey. The experiences I have had and the people I have met has changed me as a person for the better!

I just went last week! I’m currently living in Montevideo, Uruguay and we made the 25 hours journey by boat and bus.

The reason I’m commenting is say that I stayed at Hostel Inn, but on the Argentinian side. They have a hostel in town and one at one the way to the falls. The Hostel on the way to the falls is cheap, spacious, clean, with great program and an awesome pool. It’s definitely the place to stay if you are on the Argentinian side.

Also, we were lucky enough to go during the full moon and they have tours every full moon. They are on both borders and you hike to the best view in the park with only the light on the full moon.

Iguazu Falls was definitely one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen! I was enamored by all of the butterflies and the massive quanitity of water.
