Overview of your Puerto Iguazu tour:
The Guarani nation was originally one of the largest in South America, and the group that we'll visit, called Mbya, is one of those that maintains its traditions the most, since they didn't accept being catechized/converted.
Come into contact with ancestral people, the Guaranies of the Fortin Mborore community and their ancient culture. You'll learn of their natural medicine, rites, songs & dances, their crafts & worldview in an unforgettable experience.
Along this ancient ethnic group, let's discover the spirit of the trees, a walk where you'll learn through the interior of the jungle, guided by a specialist pure guaraní guide (whom I'm going to translate), transmitting his knowledge, which he acquired from the elderly and after studying for years.
We'll venture on a scenic route crossing a small stream marking the boundary between the city of Puerto Iguazú and the Mborore community, whom we'll see in their houses nestled in the jungle, living their lives.
