Puerto Iguazu

These coaches are impressive and I slept well.

We arrived in Puerto Iguazu around noon. It was hot. Very hot. About an hour later we were joined by Angela, on holiday from England. Within a few minutes of setting off to find a hotel a street hustler suggested we try a serviced apartment.

I was skeptical but in the event it was not bad. Arg$200 pesos per night (Arg$50 each) for a serviced apartment in nice grounds with a pool.

After settling in we walked along the Rio Iguazu.

Argentine patrol boats. This area is popular with smugglers.


Water levels can rise rapidly. This guage, halfway up from the river, reads 25.8 metres.

Buenos Aires to Puerto Iguazu

Later in the day, around 17:00, I met up with Gilles. We walked to Beccar station where we met Günter from Cora Mae before taking the train down to Retiro. We are off to Puerto Iguazu for some tourism.

We had booked Super Cama seats which fold almost flat to form a bed. Meals, wine and on board wi-fi were included.
