Catch Your Breath at Devil’s Throat
Bite-sized trip
Day 1 – Arrival in Foz Do Iguazu
Once you have landed at Iguazu’s tiny airport, you’ll see your driver waiting for you in the arrivals hall. He’ll take you straight to your modern resort hotel near the airport and park entrance. The resort offers a lovely pool, restaurant, bar and comfortable rooms. Today is free for you to relax and do whatever you wish.
Day 2 – Excursion to Argentinian & Brazilian side of the falls
Today you will experience the mighty Iguazu Falls from both the Argentinian and Brazilian sides, as each offers a different perspective of the landscape and the waterfalls. In the morning you will be picked up from your hotel and driven to the Argentine side, crossing the border on the way. Once inside the park, you’ll walk around the many tracks, through the trees, spotting capuchin monkeys and coatis. The sound of rushing water is ever present and there are several viewing platforms along the way.
Then, head back over the border to the park on the Brazilian side. The Brazilians are known for saying: ‘Argentina may have the falls, but we have the view!’ The walking trail runs beside the river so you have a constant view of the falls, and there are plenty of places to stop for photo opportunities. The final section of the walk takes you across a platform over the water for a full view of the Devil’s Throat. Prepare to get a little wet as the raging waterfalls gush down in front of you. But it’s an unforgettable sight. Afterwards you will return to your hotel.
Day 3 – Departure from Foz do Iguazu
After breakfast this trip will come to an end and you will be collected from your hotel and transferred to the airport to catch your onward flight. Depending on the time of your flight you could visit the Parque des Aves. This bird park offers a large walk-through bird enclosure filled with flying Ara macaws and toucans and is a great way to see these birds up close.

Boat Trip to the Thundering Falls
Spend an extra night in Foz do Iguazu, and get even closer to the magnificent falls. On this version of the trip you’ll still see both the Brazilian and Argentine sides of Iguazu, but you’ll also take an unforgettable jet boat safari up the river to experience the power of the falls from below. It’s an overwhelming combination of sight and sound, and we recommend packing a poncho to keep yourself at least a little bit dry.
