When planning to take a trip to South America there are so many things to take into consideration prior to departure it would be easy to miss a very important step without the proper guidance. Using a tour service can save you a lot of problems and money by advising you of all legal documents you will need as well as any immunizations you may need to enter the country. They can also arrange tours that will take you only on Machu Picchu Iguazu Falls tours.
Because these two sites are located in different parts of this continent there are not a lot of tour companies who offer these specific destinations. The river and waterfalls make up the boarders between Brazil and Argentina closer to the east coast. The Inca's ruins are found in the mountains of Peru.
Touring the waterfalls can occur from either side of the river although crossing from one side to the other can result in your needing visas for both countries. The trip across can be accomplished by following a series of plank board walks and observation platforms. There are more than two hundred seventy different waterfalls in this one location that covers a little over a mile and a half of river surface.
A reasonably short boat ride will bring you to the foot of the waterfalls on the lower river. With the amount of water constantly falling into the river there is a mist that creates rainbows at all times of day. Riders will also be treated to a birds eye view of the forest and its inhabitants on the trip to the waterfall base.
Leaving Argentina and heading for Peru will take you to the Andes Mountains and the Lost City of the Incas. The Sacred Valley of Machu Picchu harbors this city that was rediscovered in 1911. You will be able to access it by train which takes around four hours one way or by shuttle bus from closer locations that are about thirty minutes in duration.
To take full advantage of all time the ruins are open daily most people stay at least one night in the town outside the ruins. There is also a lodge that is located within walking distance of the from gate. You have to make reservations for your gate passes in advance because they are not available at the entrance. You will also find that the number of passes sold on any given day is limited by the government.
Lunches and refreshments must be purchased outside the grounds at any vendors or restaurants that are located there. Food and drinks are not allowed any where inside the ruins. If you have stayed in the town overnight your hotel may provide you with a box lunch before you depart for the day.
Using a tour guide company can greatly alleviate the hassle that goes along with intercontinental travel. You will be provided with all information you need to prepare you for a trouble free vacation and an exciting visit to South America.
