We arrived from Porto Alegre (13 hours bus trip) to Foz do Iguaçu - Brazil, at 8am. We then took a taxi to the Bambu Hostel (nice atmosphere) and booked a tour to the Iguaçu Falls in the Argentinian side.
We left at around 9:30am in direction to Puerto Iguazu. Once we arrived there, we took a nice and amazing tour to see the falls from the bottom. The tour started with a truck which took us through the jungle and after that, we all went in a boat. The boat ride was fantastic ;) We were told to use a life jacket and they also gave us a waterproof bag to put our belongings so that they would not get wet. It was driving really fast and we took really nice photos.
The best was still to come. 
The boat got close to the falls and we got completely soaked. We almost could not look to the falls, because of all the water spray coming to our faces. Really nice ;)After the boat ride, we went for lunch and then, we took a train to the biggest fall - The devils throat - A Garganta do Diabo. This one was spectacular. We were also lucky with the nice weather and with the big amount of water that was coming through the "Parana" river. There were also nice rainbows - as you can see on the photos.
At
the end of our tour, we went to the Tres Fronteiras or Three Boarders.
There, you can see the Brazilian, Argentinian and Paraguaian boarders with the corresponding flags.This was until now one of the nicest highligths of our trip. Really great.
Look at this nice video:
