If you'd like to get the inside track on all things jungle and rainforest, then book yourself in now. Warning however, although the rooms are perfectly apt for their location, if you are afraid of small insects and odd noises at night, this place might not be right for you. Yacutinga is well located to offer its guests an informative... More

Our tour group stayed for 3 nights recently at this fabulous place - wonderful food, atmospheric accommodation and environment and great walks through the jungle and 'floating' down the Iguazu river in our canoes with our well informed and fun rangers. Definitely take a torch, long trousers and shirts to cover up, binoculars and your mossie plug in and deet.... More

If you are going to the falls, this is a very good side trip. You will gain an appreciation for the jungle environment and what human intervention has done to diminish this valuable resource. This is a wonderful learning and discovery opportunity and I recommend it. The food is good and fresh and the accomodations are nice as well. Add... More

Out of the way, simple and basic, and a great way to experience the jungle in this area. Excellent guides (thank you Nestor). Good home style food and a pool for a welcome dip after a hot day. Particularly enjoyed the kayaking.

From the inside to the out, I would say Yacutinga Lodge was one of the best experiences in my life and worth every opportunity. The staff was incredibly nice and friendly, the tour guides were excellent, and I absolutely loved the green concept.

The beauty of nature is matched by a respectful and inmaginative architecture. The whole organization of outings and visits is perfectly done, with friendly and capable guides. This place is an example for intelligent and respectful tourism. El idioma inglés es demasiado importante, lo que a lo mejor frena las visitas de latinoamericanos. Creo que se podría forzar un poco... More

I think there are much better places to stay for the cost involved. The Low Down - Rooms : We booked their best suite, with a Spa Bath. Spa didn't work, but as it happens, that didn't matter, as we also had no hot water. I really hate it when properties skimp on the necessities. Our bed had no mattress... More

A list of over 570 species of diurnal butterflies, more than 320 species of bird listed. Do not expect to observe plenty of mammals, our ecosystem doesn't allow this kind of gift. Expect for capuchin monkeys, coaties, hundred of butterflies , over 40 to 60 bird species in two days of ecoactivities. There other mammals that sometimes show up.
