Description
An adventure in the Wanda Mines, just 40 km from the city of Puerto Iguazú, a tour along the majestic National Route N°12 that takes us through the vibrant subtropical jungle, the imposing mountain ranges and the iconic red land of Misiones.
In the Wanda Colony, you will discover a unique deposit of semi-precious stones: quartz crystals, amethysts, agates and topazes, among other jewels of nature. Upon arrival, a local guide passionate about the place will welcome you to tell you about the fascinating discovery of these mines and their history. During the tour, you will enter caves where you will see the stones in their natural form, and you will visit the mine workshop to learn about the extraction and carving processes that transform them into works of art.
To close this experience, you can explore the sales room and jewelry store, where you will admire impressive geodes and worked minerals, an opportunity to take a little piece of this magical land as a souvenir.

Excelente
Muito melhor do que eu imaginava. Trocamos a data dois dias antes e não houve problema. Passar por Termine já valeu o tour todo. Que bom seria se todos os tours fossem assim.

Very good
A solid way to see Iguazu. Very friendly guide, though the group was large and they could not reach everyone. One of the stops was closed that day and nobody mentioned it. A good experience on balance.

Superó las expectativas
Realmente valió cada peso. Que venga con traslados ida y vuelta desde hoteles en Foz de Iguazu (lado Brasileño) hace toda la diferencia. La atención previa a la reserva fue muy clara con todas nuestras dudas. Se ve que el guía elige bien qué contar, nunca se hizo pesado. Lo recomiendo sin dudar.
