Eravamo solo noi due su un'auto climatizzata, il nostro autista faceva anche da guida. molto bravo e preparato. Aveva anche il permesso per guidare all'interno del parco di Iguaçù, così abbiamo raggiunto il sentiero per le cascate comodamente in auto, senza prendere il pullman obbligatorip del parco. Attività assolutamente consigliata.”
