At the indicated time, you'll be picked up from your hotel in Posadas for a tour of Misiones, the most northeastern province of Argentina.

The first stop will be at the Salto Encantado Provincial Park. In this protected area, we'll see the impressive waterfall of Salto Encantado, reaching a height of 64 metres (209 feet). We'll also see other waterfalls, such as the Salto la Olla and the Picaflor waterfall.
