    This trip was definitely an experience I wasn't totally prepared for. The accommodation was suitable. Some better than others. El pueblito in Iguazu, Argentina was a highlight. Most day tours I was the only English speaking person. I recommend learning more Spanish to learn and understand more. Most places, as well as taxis and Ubers only accept cash. But ATM's can be hard to find. Do not trust taxi drivers. Especially in Argentina and Chile. I was pleasantly surprised how safe I felt in Rio. Not so much in Chile. Overall, I enjoyed my trip. But will do more homework about each country prior to visiting. I've met some amazing people from all over the world and had some unforgettable times. Just be prepared and ask lots of questions before committing to this tour
