The path leads to a deck with lockers, restrooms, snack bar, and souvenir shop. Then, an electric tram takes you down to the pier, where powerful twin-engine boats navigate close to the waterfalls for an unforgettable adventure.

The Brazilian side holds just 25% of the falls, but offers unmatched panoramic views of the remaining 75% on the Argentine side. Depending on weather and sunlight, rainbows are often visible across the cascades.

Walk along the 950-meter boardwalk circuit for stunning views of the 275 different drops of the Iguazú River. At the end of the walkway, you’ll face the breathtaking Devil’s Throat, the largest and most powerful fall. Then, a panoramic elevator offers yet another spectacular perspective.
