Why Iguaçu Falls

Iguaçu is not one waterfall but a thunderous arc of around 275 of them, taller and far wider than Niagara, set in subtropical rainforest on the Brazil–Argentina border. The name means 'big water' in Guaraní, an understatement.

We help you do it right: the sweeping Brazilian-side panorama, the immersive Argentine-side trails to the Devil's Throat, and the wildlife and dams nearby, at the pace that suits you.

  • The Brazilian sideA panoramic boardwalk that puts the whole arc of falls in front of you.
  • Devil's ThroatThe colossal U-shaped cataract on the Argentine side, pure power.
  • Coatis & toucansCheeky coatis (don't feed them) and rainforest birdlife along the trails.
  • Parque das AvesA walk-through bird park beside the Brazilian entrance.
  • Itaipu DamOne of the world's largest hydroelectric dams, nearby.
  • The triple frontierWhere Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay meet across the rivers.
