Four days at Iguazú Falls, from both the Argentine and the Brazilian side: the jungle train, walkways over the cascades, the Devil’s Throat and rainforest as far as you can see.

The tour

Iguazú Falls, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a line of 275 waterfalls tumbling through the rainforest on the border between Argentina and Brazil. This four-day tour bases you in Puerto Iguazú to see them from every angle, with bilingual guides who know the site inside out.

On the Argentine side you ride the 'Jungle Train', a small eco-train through the forest, then follow the trails and catwalks of the Upper and Lower Circuits to the Devil’s Throat. On the Brazilian side, the view opens up into a panorama of the whole falls. As an option, a boat ride to the foot of the cascades.

The last day is yours: wander around Puerto Iguazú, visit an animal refuge or meet a Guaraní community. The tour is open to adults from 18, solo or in a group.
