Day Trip Details

At the indicated time, you will 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 will see the impressive waterfall of Salto Encantado, which reaches a height of 64 metres (209 feet). During our visit to the park, we will also see other waterfalls such as the Salto la Olla and the Picaflor waterfall.

After visiting the provincial park, we will go to the town of San Ignacio where you will have time to get lunch. After lunch, we will take a guided tour of the Jesuit ruins of San Ignacio Miní, founded by the Jesuit father San Roque Conzález de Santa Cruz in 1611.

From there, we will continue our trip to the Parque Temático de la Cruz theme park, where we will see the iconic Cruz de Santa Ana, located 360 metres (1181 feet) above sea level. This enormous 52-metre (170-feet) metallic crucifix is remarkable. Those who wish can also go up to the viewpoint for scenic views of the Paraná River.

Finally, we will conclude the tour by returning to your hotel in Posadas, scheduled to arrive 12 hours after pickup.
