Itinerary

On this full-day tour, we'll take you to explore the natural and cultural wonders of the province, starting with a stop at the Wanda Gem Mines. There, a passionate local guide awaits you to reveal the secrets of this deposit of quartz, amethysts, agates and topazes, among other natural jewels. We will enter caves where you can see the stones in their pure state, and you will visit the mine workshop to learn about the extraction processes and craftsmanship.

Our tour continues through a lush landscape, surrounded by yerba mate and tea plantations.

After a break for lunch and relaxing in a natural environment, we will continue to the impressive site of the Jesuit Ruins of San Ignacio Miní. Declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, these ruins built in 1632 are a historical treasure of the "Guarani Baroque" and one of the most impressive works of the Jesuit legacy in South America. Explore the carved stone architecture, with baroque details created by indigenous artists, and enjoy a light and sound show that enhances the magic of this special place.

This tour is designed so that you can enjoy it at your own pace, without rushing, taking the time necessary to admire the beauty and cultural wealth that Misiones has to offer. Join us for an unforgettable experience!
