Hello, i am getting married in chaco, resistencia at the end of october. my partner and i would like to take the guest for a short 3-4 day trip to the iguazu falls after the wedding and were wondering the following, how long does it take to get there? what is the best means of transportation? are there any nice hotels you can recommend with a pool? can guests fly back to buenos aires from iguazu? is it easy to cross the border? if so, how would be go by doing so? hope to hear from you soon and many thanks eva | ||

Welcome, Eva! Resistencia is about 630 km from Iguazu. To get to Iguazu I would check this local bus company while in Resistencia: Aguila Dorada, or look for the offices of "Rio Uruguay". Both companies go back and forth. You can research "Hotel Cataratas", very nice and not too expensive. A one way ticket Iguazu / Buenos Aires usd $125 approximately per person. I would not know about the border... For american citizens, it is required a visa. Without it, you may be asking for trouble. Bear in mind the Bush administration has made some comments about the tri-border area just last week. | ||

Thanks for the info. Its been so hard trying to organize something. Do you think we would be able to rent a bus or is there a train at all? are plane tickets expensive from resistencia to iguazu? i just dont know the best way of getting there. if not, maybe we can rent a ranch or somethng with a pool that is near by resistencia, or relatively near. something beautiful with a pool. what do you think? | ||

Buses are very convenient, inexpensive and have many schedules. You might be able to do this overnight on a sleeping coach. About renting anything close to Resistencia only a real estate agent can help you, and I am afraid I don't know of anyone up there. As for trains, I doubt it. You can conceivably rent a van/bus and drive to Iguazu through RN 16/ RN 12... I'll find out about flying to Iguazu in a bit, but all flights will connect through Buenos Aires so I still think busing it is the way to go. | ||

Ok, well i guess a bus is the way to go then. Thank you very much for your help. | ||

Eva, flying is a problem. Most days of the week, the air route Resistencia-Iguazu requires spending a night in Buenos Aires due to the differences in schedules...Flights from Resistencia arrive in Buenos Aires at around 14:45, and depending on which day there will not be any flights from BA to Iguazu available. To really know if this is possible you must have a precise date of departure... |
