Day 1 Puerto Iguazu
This excursion will start in Puerto Iguazú and head towards the San Ignacio Ruins.
Same Day San Ignacio ruins
We will drive 230 kilometers till we arrive to the city where the ruins are located. In 1984, the Jesuit Missions of San Ignacio Miní, along with Nuestra Señora de Loreto, Santa Ana and Santa María la Mayor (located in Argentina) were declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO. San Ignacio City is a tourist destination with breathtaking landscapes such as the Teyú Cuaré State Park reserve, the Yabebirí river and other natural beauties spread throughout the region. The city is surrounded by native flora in each corner. The ruins we are going to visit was designed by the Jesuits and built by the guaranies. The building was finish in 1610 and used for 400 years. Later it was covered by the jungle and last century was discovered and re-builded by a group of scientists.
Same Day Iguazu - Wanda mines
Inside the Wanda Mines agates, jasper, and original topaz, among other varieties can be observed and purchased by tourists who come to visit this exciting place. The stones extracted from the mines are turned into gems and used for jewelry making. In line with this and the legend, this place of great tourist importance is named after a Polish princess who was very fond of the beauty of the stones that are generated there.
At the end of the day we will return to the hotel in Puerto Iguazu where the tour ends.
