I wish to add my two cents,
IT IS WORTH IT.

I stayed at the Sheraton this past January and I the rate was $145 for a garden view ( $50 extra for the falls view). Try to reach Cintia at www.wowargentina.ar.com. She was very helpful in making the arrangements.

Does anyone know the average temperature in March and April? Is that the rainy season?
Thanks.

You absolutely must go to Iguazu! We made a point of making the extra trip there while touring Brazil. Go on the boat ride...so fun & amazing views. Make sure you leave the windows closed where ever you stay (we were happy at the Sheraton & you can't beat the convenience & views). We returned from dinner to a room infested with the craziest bugs ever! It was like that commercial. Try to find out about an authentic Argentinian dinner show not far from the falls/Sheraton. It was a great show as well as a feast! I think we only spent a little more than 24 hours in Iguazu due to time retraints but it was definitely one of the highlights.

Yes, definitely go to the falls. I couldn't afford the Sheraton but really enjoyed the Hotel St. George in town. nice clean rooms at a very reasonable price. It also has a great pool and is located very close to the bus station for an easy trip into the park.

Just to add my 2c, GO! It is worth it, even for a short time. 2.5 days in Salta will probably be enough - I have not been there, but other areas of Argentina/Chile for wineries. Seen one, you've seen them all. You will never see anything like Iguazu.

Also, definitely do the boat tour. SOOOOO much fun. BRING A ZIPLOC for your camera. Nothing else will protect it. You will not be "misted" by the falls - you will be drenched! Do not take that in a bad way - it is just awesome.
