Full-Day Tour to Iguazu Falls
Straddling the border of Brazil and Argentina, the spectacular Iguazu Falls (also known as Foz do Iguaçu in Portuguese) comprise more than 200 separate cascades powered by the rushing Iguazu River. This world-famous natural wonder is not to be missed when visiting northern Argentina. After pickup at your Puerto Iguazu hotel, travel with a professional guide to the national park on the Argentinian side of the falls. Climb aboard the Train of the Forest to access a series of walking paths and footbridges that wind through the sprawling subtropical terrain. Soak up different vantage points of the falls, from single delicate spouts to entire cliffs covered with curtains of rushing water. For the ultimate Iguazu experience, step out on an overhang above the thundering Devil's Throat (Garganta del Diablo), where the river makes its initial descent more than 200 feet (60 meters) down around a powerful, crescent-shaped cascade. From this vantage point, you can see across the river into Brazil. Enjoy free time to explore the park’s upper and lower sections, and choose from a series of hiking circuits that range from easy to challenging. Break for lunch at one of the restaurants inside the park (own expense), where you may be greeted by resident coatimundi and exotic birds while dining picnic-style. After several hours at the falls, relax on the return drive to your Puerto Iguazu hotel.

What you'll see & do
- ✓After pick-up at your hotel, you will be driven to the world-famous Iguazu National Park, located on the Argentine side of the falls. You will be accompanied by a local specialized guide, who will help you spot some wildlife of the surrounding subtropical forest: toucans, parrots and coatis, just to name a few!
- ✓Iguazu Falls are one of the most spectacular natural attractions in South America and the world. These 275 waterfalls were declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Upon arrival at the National Park, you will show your entrance ticket and enter the park (entrance fee not included). The innumerable footbridges will allow you to get close to the waterfalls until your face gets softly wet.
- ✓Next up, ride on an ecological train through the Iguazu rainforest to access the viewing platform that overlooks the impressive Devil’s Throat, the most important and most imposing waterfall of all. You will not cease to be amazed by the force of millions of litres of water falling at different heights! ** In case there are many people in the train to go to The Devil’s Throat, you will try to go first to less crowded places.
- ✓After touring “Garganta del Diablo” (Devil’s Throat), you will continue to explore the walkways of either the lower or the upper circuit. Both of them are sure to impress you: The LOWER CIRCUIT, feature a more intimate experience with nature as you walk right into the forest to the heart of the falls, you will be able to feel the “spirit” of the jungle; its humidity, sounds and aromas. The UPPER CIRCUIT provides magnificent panoramic views from the top of the falls. This circuit is the perfect place to kick back and relax with the sound of water in the background and sunlight on your skin. The elevated walkways will take you over the drop line of several of the main jumps. Are you hungry? You will have some free time to have lunch (lunch not included).
- ✓This exciting excursion is highly recommended in order to experience the true power of Iguazú Falls!! After enjoying the final views of the day we will drive you back to your hotel in Puerto Iguazu. **Would you like to go on an dventure? If the answer is yes, we recommend booking our tour option that includes a Boat Ride to meet face to face with the incredible waterfalls. **The order of the itinerary is subject to change due to conditions of an operational nature. Your guide will decide which circuit should be visited first to avoid long lines and major crowds.
