We first did the Argentine side of the falls. That gives you a glimpse of the enormity of the site. (Argentina gives you up close and personal). But the Brazilian side gives you the whole view. It was incredible and jaw dropping. We spend a few hours just observing the falls by following the trail. We did not do any... More

I only had time to visit the Brazilian side of Iguacu Falls, but it was still stunning. We went for the afternoon and had plenty of time to wander around and see the falls from different views. To be honest, I wasn't expecting it to be as breathtaking as it was, because after all it is just a waterfall. But... More

We Stayed at the Sheraton International Igauzu Resort and had a 2 day guided tour (walk) of the falls. The views from all the walkways were unbelievable and the sound deafening. Also the wildlife and flora in the National Park provided us with a very interesting 2 days.

Go and see the falls from both the Brazilian and Argentinian sides as you get a completely different perspective on one of the most wonderful pieces of nature I have ever seen. You will not be disappointed!

Out of this world views. Couldn't believe how powerful and awe-inspiring the Falls were. A Must See!

Iguacu Falls are spectacular! They alone are worth a trip to Brazil or Argentina! The series of falls, the widest in the world, is most amazing!! I've seen the fabulous Niagara Falls and Victoria Falls but was awestruck by Iguacu. Make sure to see them from both countries. Waterproof shoes are a must, and if you happen to go during... More

Hard not to be amazed by such impressive waterfall. Good structure.We enjoyed the walks. Dont forget to take a overcoat because it gets wett near the fall. I went with my kids (6 and 8 years) and they loved walking so near the falls. But, the ride with the boat was a nightmare for them. Too radical, they cried the... More

Most impressive natural wonder. The lengthy falls are spectacular and well worth visiting. The coatis who were looking for a food handout were a little bothersome but we are invading their natural home.

Most travellers I met around South America would tell me that it was essential to se the waterfalls from both sides...this is BULLSH❋❋ ! The waterfalls are significantly more amazing seen from the Argentinian side, and there is much better management, although it is equally expensive. To get to the waterfalls you should go to the bus station in Foz... More

There is little I can say that hasn't been said. Quite simply, these are the most impressive Falls, along with Victoria, I have ever seen. The width and power of Iguacu are unique, and the walkway out to "Devils Throat" must be experienced.
