“Iguacu, I love you!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 21, 2012 NEW

This is a gorgeous park! We came here at the beginning of May and learned that the falls are normally filled with 6x more water than we observed. One of the tour boat companies were not even running that day from the Argentinian side due to low water levels. I can see how impressive the falls can get and even... More

“Wonderful National Park”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 11, 2012

One of the wonders of South America, ever since Dumont identified the area as one that should be guarded against development the Governments of Brazil and Argentina have safeguarded this wonderful area. The park is focussed on environmental protection, the wildlife around this area is amazing. Many tour guides can take you (and I recommend you do go with a... More

“Sight seeing helicopter tour”

person found this review helpful

We took the 10 minutes helicopter tour from the Brazilian side of the national park. It was the best 110 dollars I have ever spent in my life! No words can describe the beauty of the Majestic Iguazu falls amidst the lush greenery of the park. This is going to be the icing on your cake if you intend to... More

“Natural wonder”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 6, 2012

Our travel agent suggested we make a stop at Igazu during our Brazil / Argentina trip and we were SO pleased that she did. Seeing both the Brazilian and Argentine sides is definitely advised as they are very different but overall I really think this is a place worth visiting. Very beautiful. More

“Great contact with nature”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 25, 2012

You must visit both National Parks, the Brazilian and the Argentinian, because there are different views of the same wonder. Beware of the coatis, they are cute but steal your food! More

If you would like to pay 250 USD to walk for 2 hours through a reforested path then spend 30 minutes in a boat whilst 4 guides talk amongst each other in Portuguese then this is the trip for you :) Total animal count 0 although from the pictures on the side of their many trucks you would think you...

person found this review helpful

We took a local guide at the entrance to the park and visited with the small visitors center at the entrance of the park. Unfortunately the water was low so we could not do the Macucu boat ride. We and our kids (6,12,14) enjoyed very much the park and the views. Although there was a bit less water then what... More

“Very good park”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 10, 2012

The brazilian Iguacu National Park is a very organised park, where you can visit the Iguazu fall in a half day trip. There are other activities that you can do there, like rafting, but it is not included in the ticket price. It is very near to the Bird's Park (Parque das Aves), where you can go walking. More
