Full Carma bus travel_the way to go.
The 17 hour bus trip from Buenos Aires to Iguazu was somewhat daunting but turned out to be most pleasurable travelling full carma. Our apartment at Iguazu was good with the receptionist girls more than a little patient with my spanlish.

This apartment was a far cry from our one night Eco lodge accommodation in the jungle on the Brazil side near the falls. The backpacker company over dinner was good but Leisa was not at all impressed; - the yellow fever top-up injections may have been worth while after all. I was relieved, impressed even, that our taxi found the place and arrived on time at 4:30am in the morning for us to catch our early am flight to Rio.

Of the falls I considered the Argentine side the best having many more vantage points to take it all in. It took us a full 5 hours gate to gate to travel all the main paths in the park that covered the falls whereas on the Brazil side, 2-3 hours would cover it.

The falls are no doubt very impressive but are without the thunder and ground tremor that you experience at Victoria Falls. Weather continues to
