We are timetabled for the Jungle trek this morning and have to be ready and packed before breakfast as we fly back to Buenos Aires later. It's the one part of our package that I could have done without as I had no interest in either Ziplining or the wet rappel in a waterfall. I know the younger people really enjoyed it, so it was just a bad choice for us. We all found it a bit of a wild ride when a rock got stuck between the two back tyres and made us bump around but we enjoyed our guide's quiz along the way home.
The things I really enjoyed seeing were several Blue Morpho butterflies flitting through the dappled sun by the waterfall. They were impossible to photograph but I know they were there.
We leave Iguazu in a rainstorm and feel relieved we missed all that. We head back to Buenos Aires and our Hotel La Reina Plata. It's fairly utilitarian but clean and well placed at one end of the main pedestrian shopping street. After a quick change we are off in search of dinner in the Puerto Madero area. It's one of those upmarket areas built around a disused dock and warehouse area, with plenty of restaurants and feels pretty safe at night.
Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Although there was a lot of paper work, I received help and guidance when I needed it.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
