    Amazing bird park - not to be missed.
    One of the best bird parks we've ever been to. The layout allows you to see the birds close up and often outside of cages roaming free. It's a very immersive experience - highly recommend it.
    Thank you for visiting Parque das Aves ! It’s with the help of our visitors that we can maintain the entire structure of the Park and finance field studies, which are very important for the conservation project of the Park. We’re really glad to know that you liked our work! Come visit us again! Best regards and see you soon!

    Lots of beautiful, healthy and happy-looking birds in very large aviaries
    Lots of amazing birds, in large aviaries with seemingly plenty of space for them to fly, flock and perch. A lot of the birds have been rescued from the wildlife trade. The scarlet ibises are so striking. The parakeets and macaws are particularly active and noisy. It's great to see the toucans close-up. The trail through lush vegetation works well.
    We’re really glad to know that you liked our work! You’re always welcome to come back. Best regards and see you again soon!

    Must see!
    We visited the park during our 3 days stay in Foz. It was a suggestion of some of our friends and we are happy having followed it! The park is a conservation site, and also a place in which birds liberated from illegal traffics are recovered. There are lots of written explanations about the birds you can observe, and also kind personnel available to give you some more hints. A must see together with the falls!

    Fabulous birds
    Marvelous birds. The display of 15 or so types of parrots and parakeets was fabulous. We stayed over 3 hours and could have stayed an hour more, except that we had to get to the airport. Basically, like fifteen+ of the best zoo bird exhibits you've ever seen all in one place. My impression is that about half the birds are rescued, but not sure.

    Beautiful place where animals are very good taken care of. We, people, come through cages to see birds in their natural habitat or there are pens where you can go in. You can see many beautiful colourful parrots, toucans

    Loved it. Didnot believe my own eyes looking at some of these birds up close.
    We really enjoyed this park as we were amazed how colorful and beautiful some of these birds were. The ticket money goes to preservation of this beautiful park so I was willing to pay 20$ per person. All kinds of birds; we were sad we didnot spot any Tucans. I feel bad I didnot ask what happened to them. Make sure to pay a visit.

    Rainforest with Birds
    This really a rain forest reserve. There are plant exhibits including cecropia trees with there commensal ants. Butter fly gardens. Birds in huge walk in enclosures. I would guess the enclosures are 3 to 4 stories tall. Our guide to Iguazu falls said this was an optional side trip, but he did not do it justice in his description. This is not just another zoo! This is a selva mata/ tropical rainforest experience.

    Great Place to Visit
    Great place to visit after you visit the Falls. We took a cab from the Argentina side and had the driver wait for 90 minutes. The total cost was $40. The facility has several bathrooms, is well maintained and easy to walk around. A must if you have a few hours.
    Thank you so much! We really appreciate your visit and support. Looking forward to see you again in the Park! Best regards and see you soon!

    Pleasant suprise
    I went with low expectations but really enjoyed the bird park. It is quite big giving good space for the animals. They take conservation seriously and really care for the animals. There is a lot to see and not just birds.

    Endangered and injured birds, and colorful Makaws make Paraue das Aves a special relaxing spot to visit.
    A wonderful haven for birds. Many endangered species that you may see in books. Wonderful colorfull birds including Makaws, Toucans and large Vultures. Turtles and a butterfly garden made this a shady spot to take a relaxed walk through. Buying tickets as easy and was inexpensive about US $16 per head. You can walk up to the gate of the park located next door to the Samna hotel and buy your tickets. Allow 1-1/2 hours to take in all the beautiful tropical birds. There is a large gift shop for souvenirs and some chairs outdoors for relaxing.

This was the last thing on our agenda and am so glad that we did this. It was the best bird park that I have seen! Cost was equivalent to $30 USD for two adults. Didn't do any of the optional behind the scenes tours. It is near the entrance for the Brazilian side of the park on the other side of the street. There are more than 1320 birds from about 143 different species. Many of them are rescue birds. It is easy to follow the path that makes an entire circuit around the park. It took us about an hour but you could certainly spend more time here. Some birds are free-flying and others are in cages.

Even though we went in January, there were not a lot of people, could be because it had been raining earlier. I could see if it is crowded it might not be as nice. The birds were stunning and different then you see at the regular zoo in the US. I would recommend with kids for sure and even if not it is beautiful and the walk is not strenuous.

Park opened in 1994. Most of the birds are rescue animals, which can no longer survive in the wild. Although there are some other rainforest animals, the main attractions are the hundreds of macaws, parrots, flamingos and toucans. The birds are beautiful and you can get real close to them in the large aviaries. One toucan landed on a rail right in front of me, and was happy to pose for photos. Have some food outlets and a gift shop. Definitely worth a vist, especially for families.

Because it is next to the famous Iguazu Falls, I walked directly after finishing the trip to the waterfall. Tickets in 80 local currency are not cheap. There is a tropical rainforest feeling in the park. All kinds of birds can be photographed, and flashes are not allowed. Halfway through the journey in the park, I was thirsty and drank a coconut for 13 local coins. What impressed me most was that I caught a group of owls eating mice and pecked them one by one, which was very interesting.

Hi. Thank you so much for your visit and support at Bird's Park. It is with the help of people like you that we can carry out our work of rescuing, rehabilitating and sheltering birds that are victims of terrible situations and that need special human care for the rest of their lives. Unfortunately, more than 50% of the birds we house have been victims of traffic, accidents and mistreatment. We work hard to offer our visitors the best immersive experience in the rich Atlantic Forest biome. We are very happy that you enjoyed and witnessed the feeding of the owls. We hope to see you again soon. Once again, thank you for your visit and support. You're invited to come and visit us more often. Greetings from Parque das Aves.

This is the only park in the world with Brazilian Atlantic forest fauna, mainly birds. It was lovely to see all the macaws, hawks, toucans and flamingoes. However, keep in mind that the photos of people sitting with macaws are taken from those who have paid for the more expensive experience option.
A pleasant way to spend a few hours, particularly the butterfly house.

Different kinds of birds, several of which close to extinction. You can enter some aviaries, and get really close to toe birds. THe path has accessibility and is especially suited for children. My 1 year-old daughter just loved the tour! They have recently expanded the birds collection and have added more aviaries.

Since we were already at the Brazilian side of the Iguazu Falls, our taxi driver suggested we walk over to this park. As we had just spent a month hiking and birding through Panama, it was a bit sad to see some of these birds caged up. They are rescued so I guess for them, it is a good thing as they have a safe place to be.

We saw the Harpy Eagle in the wild, a majestic and fabulous eagle; the ones in the cage here looked so sad.... There were beautiful birds though and the McCaws looked happy and colorful

If you are at the Falls, a stop here is okay; not worth a separate trip.

A fabulous conservation project very close to iguazu falls. Allow half a day. Well worth the R$60 entry fee. You will take far too many photos particularly of the Macaws! An easy level trail takes you through a good variety of birds, reptiles and even butterflies. Impossible not to love and a must-do when visiting the iguazu falls. An easy R$20 uber ride or R$50 taxi ride from Foz do Iguazu

as a animal right supporter person i usually dont pay to see animals in zoo or birds park but i visited this place because i heard this center is a place to protect and study about birds, This park offers different species of birds and some are amazing.
i do not consider this place as a real must see if you are in a ruch or you want to choose between this or the falls. how ever it depends on your interest

We weren't expecting too much from this visit, and one of group is partially-sighted was worried she wouldn't see too much. How wrong we were ! Because you could enter many of the enclosures you could get surprisingly close to lots of the birds. My husband took amazing close-up photos of the toucans, and for a small extra fee we fed the parakeets which we all enjoyed. Our partially-sighted friend could see and feel the butterfly which landed on her hand and stayed there for a couple of minutes. Overall we really enjoyed our visit.
