We just completed our 8-day trip, covering Rio, Iguazu from Brazil and Argentina sides, and a day in Paraguay. It was a memorable experience. We had been planning this trip for about two months, and Meghan helped fine-tune our itinerary multiple times. Meghan and the Kimkim team were very flexible in accommodating our custom requests. On the day we were supposed to go to Christ the Redeemer in Rio, the weather turned out rainy with poor visibility, so we had to cancel. Meghan worked with the tour company to accommodate our tickets for another day and that worked out very well for us. Without her help, it would have been quite a hassle otherwise. The local transportation and bilingual tour guides appointed by Kimkim were great and we didn’t have to stress about safety, convenience of pickups/drops and tour tickets. We usually tour on our own, but this time we made an exception to go with a travel company and we think it was a wise choice. Thank you, Meghan and Team!
Hotel Reviews
Nadai Confort Hotel
Foz do Iguacu
We loved the outdoor pool and hot-spa which helped greatly recovery from tiring tour days. The room service was poor.. took an hour to deliver food twice and also messed up the orders. Breakfast was ok. Rooms were small but clean.
Cleanliness & Comfort
Nice pool
Arena Leme
Rio de Janeiro
Great location - Leme beachfront next to Copacabana. Nice rooftop and bar, though very small pool. Breakfast was ok, but not many choices for everyone in the restaurant. I wish they accommodated more vegetarian options. Rooms were good.
Windsor Florida
Rio de Janeiro
Nice connecting rooms, though no views except buildings. Breakfast was ok. Overall, an average hotel.
Activity Reviews
Argentinean Side Falls & Gran Aventura Boat Tour
Foz do Iguaçu
The Argentinian side of Iguazu is beautiful beyond words. The walkway is serene, and the boat adventure was so fun!
Guides, Drivers and Staff
The boat operator was not bilingual, and his commentary was only in Spanish/Portuguese. English should be mandatory as there are foreign tourists always.
Guide and vehicle at disposal to explore Paraguay
Foz do Iguaçu
The Monday Falls at Paraguay were amazingly beautiful. Do include this in your itinerary even after visiting the mighty Iguazu!
Arrival transfer in Rio de Janeiro
Rio de Janeiro
On time pickup at an odd hour - thank you, for making it safe and convenient.
Exploring the Brazilian Falls
Foz do Iguaçu
A visual treat to eyes .. so many beautiful vista points and then the final stop at the grand Devil's Throat is an unmatched experience.
Day Tour of Sugarloaf Mountain (cable car) and Christ the Redeemer Statue
Rio de Janeiro
I wish we had some visibility at the Sugar Loaf.. it was a blanket of white. It was fun to ride the cable cars. But we overcame that in the Christ the Redeemer part - beautiful beyond words!
Evening Tour to Three Borders Mark (Brazilian side)
Foz do Iguaçu
Nice spot to spend your evening - view of the 3 borders, the show they put on with dancers and drama, and the beautiful monument itself. Relaxing after the day tours of the falls.
