Overview

San Ignacio Miní stands as the best preserved Jesuit Mission of the 16th and 17th centuries throughout the Argentine territory. Around the main square, you find the Church, the “Casa de los Padres”, the cemetery, the houses and town hall. Native stones and large pieces of red sandstone were used to build San Ignacio city. The Wanda Mines is a great place especially known for its deposits of precious stones, turquoise, amethyst and rock crystal. Since 1976 they have become a tour for all those who come to these distances known as the Jungle region.

History, Culture, and Great Service!

Published on Jun, 2024

I loved learning about the San Ignacio Mini Ruins. Our tour guide (from the museum), Tomas, was VERY knowledgeable. I also thoroughly enjoyed our driver/tour guide, Miguel. He is also incredibly informed and knowledgeable about local culture, history, customs, and things to do! I also enjoyed the stops at Wanda Mines and one of the Mate factories. Totally recommended! (If interested in Guarani culture and history, stay in San Ignacio and do the night show at the main ruins and go see the three other ruin sites. We were unable to do so because of the limited 12-hour tour time.) P.S. make sure to bring a good book! It is a long ride!
