Another one of the places Marcos took us when we got rained out of our waterfall excursion was a place called the Wanda Mines, or Mina de Wanda locally. We were able to do so much more that day that I ended up very happy that our plans had to change. Just think, I may have left Iguazu without ever seeing these mines, how the rocks they are formed, the indigenous peoples tour, Guira Oga or the port. As you can see in the video, we picked up a local to act as our personal tour guide. Total price for the hour plus she was with us, a whopping 10 peso tip, or a little over $3 US. If you ever get a chance to visit, I strongly recommend using one, we learned so much more than we would have without one. I must warn you, there are a ton of children peddling their wares in this area, so, if you feel sorry for one and decide to buy something, be sure you have enough for everyone as you will be quickly surrounded by a posse of them looking for more of your generosity.Another one of the places Marcos took us when we got rained out of our waterfall excursion was a place called the Wanda Mines, or Mina de Wa...all »Another one of the places Marcos took us when we got rained out of our waterfall excursion was a place called the Wanda Mines, or Mina de Wanda locally.
