We take in birds which have been rescued from animal trafficking or are for some reason no longer able to survive in the wild. We give them a home in their beautiful native rainforest. We love huge aviaries. We think birds should be able to fly, and have a great social life, and feed on the best, fresh, organic diet possible. We then breed a new generation of birds which are capable of being released back into the wild (and we have a number of projects that do exactly that.) We also support projects and research throughout Brazil. We plant thousands of trees a year, restoring degraded Atlantic Rainforest. The Parque das Aves thinks that education is one of our most important tasks. Sometimes it's as simple as giving people direct contact with these beautiful birds. It's amazing what that can do. We also educate thousands of local schoolchildren a year in special programs. Thank you for supporting Parque das Aves. We couldn't do it without you. « less

In about 1 1/2 hours you can see every bird of interest in Brazil close up. This was the best use of that amount of time on our entire tour. Some of the birds will let you get close to them to be in a photo with you. Be careful of Toucans, but there are some really friendly ones here... More

We visited Parque das Aves because we wanted to have a close encounter with some of Brazil's most beautiful tropical birds, and we were not disappointed. We saw colorful toucans, hyacinth macaws, green parrots... birds we had only seen pictures of. This park is located at the entrance of Iguacu National Park so you can easily combine it with a...

Earlier in our trip we had spent some time in the Amazon and had had tantalising glimpses of the wildlife, including the birds. We had scheduled a visit to the Bird Park after our first visit to the Falls and it was a great end to a great day. Not only did we get to see a huge variety of... More

we were happy to visit the park especially as we had not spotted as many animals/birds as expected in Iguazu park. At the beginning of the birds park you find many different sorts of parrots species but they are all in cages which is hard to see for me. But then there are many huge cade where you can walk...

This is a beautifully maintained aviary that also houses butterflies and reptiles. Parque Das Aves is located about 100 yards before the entrance to the Brazilian side of the Cataratas and the public bus 120 from Foz Do Iguassu stops right in front of this park. The admission costs R$28, but is money well spent. The park boasts of an... More

This bird park has caged birds in large wire cages, and it has birds from more than just the local area. If you like tropical birds and can't get into the "wild" t hen this is a good choice, as the birds inside are rescued fowl...but I prefer to see these birds in their native habitat and not in cages....

the bird park is kept quite nicely. Take time to walk the entire trail. Bring water and poncho; when we visited, it was hot and rained pretty good. At the end, after visiting the entire park, it has a souvenir store with a variety of items for gifts and some snacks.

Blown away by the Iguazu Falls? But don't bypass this lovely little zoo and bird park. A fantastic experience walking in huge aviaries with exotic and beautiful creatures. Must-see.
