Description
On this full-day tour, we'll take you to explore the natural and cultural wonders of the province, starting with a stop at the Wanda Gem Mines. There, a passionate local guide awaits you to reveal the secrets of this deposit of quartz, amethysts, agates and topazes, among other natural jewels. We will enter caves where you can see the stones in their pure state, and you will visit the mine workshop to learn about the extraction processes and craftsmanship.
Our tour continues through a lush landscape, surrounded by yerba mate and tea plantations.
After a break for lunch and relaxing in a natural environment, we will continue to the impressive site of the Jesuit Ruins of San Ignacio Miní. Declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, these ruins built in 1632 are a historical treasure of the "Guarani Baroque" and one of the most impressive works of the Jesuit legacy in South America. Explore the carved stone architecture, with baroque details created by indigenous artists, and enjoy a light and sound show that enhances the magic of this special place.

Best day of our stay in Iguazu. Great that round-trip transfers from hotels in Foz de Iguazu (Brazilian side) was included. Of the whole route, San Ignacio Miní is what I remember most. We went back to Misiones on our own the next day. A really practical way to get your bearings on day one. If you are in Iguazu, do not miss it.

Super recomendo. O guia contava histórias que não estão em nenhum guia de viagem. Comparei preços antes de reservar e essa era a melhor opção. Recomendo sem pensar.

Buena opción para conocer Iguazu. El grupo no era enorme, lo que hizo todo más cómodo. Nos encantó la zona de Paisajes de Misiones. Lo único es que la información previa podría ser más clara sobre el punto de encuentro. Lo recomiendo, con las aclaraciones que hice.

No podría haber salido mejor. Sale más que hacerlo suelto, pero te ahorra toda la organización. Solo por Paisajes de Misiones vale la pena el paseo. El recorrido está bien pensado, no se repite ni da vueltas de más. De lo mejor que contratamos por internet.

Far better than we expected. Well signposted throughout, and staff were attentive. We had enough time at San Ignacio Miní to take photos without rushing. We would never have made it to Misiones on our own. For what we paid, it is exceptional value. The pace was comfortable, neither rushed nor dull. Highly recommended.
