Top 45 things to do and attractions in Puerto Iguazu (2024)

Majestic! Must see if you’re in the area. Definitely take a raincoat because the mist will soak you. We went on a beautiful day. It started off chilly and raining and as soon as we arrived, it cleared to blue skies and multiple rainbows. It’s humid as well, so it feels warmer while you’re there. The walk is nice-it will take an hour give or take depending on how often you stop for photos. There are tons of plant species that are only found here as well. Take the time to notice them! God’s fingerprints are all over this place. A wonder for sure.

A must see in Argentina. Easy hike over, around and under the falls. Should you dare to take the boat ride, Expect to get drenched, but well worth it. The falls are immense but extremely accessible. Restaurants and rest areas available within the park.

To get to Iguazú National Park from Misiones, you need to take a bus from the bus terminal, which costs 4000 Argentine pesos each way. The ride takes approximately 30 minutes. Once there, you purchase your entry ticket, and it can take around 4 to 6 hours to explore the entire park through its different trails.The recommended route is to start with the lower circuit, followed by the upper circuit, each taking about an hour. After this, take the train to the Devil's Throat circuit. The park ranger recommended taking the train because it was raining and the view was not worth walking in those conditions. The journey from the station to the Devil's Throat and back takes about an hour and offers the most incredible view. Professional photos can be taken there for a cost of 10,000 Argentine pesos.There are many places to buy snacks, although the sandwiches and empanadas are not the best, they are not overly expensive. I recommend buying something and bringing it to the park to eat. During our visit, the Macuco Trail was closed as it becomes risky due to mud when it rains, but this trail takes about 2 hours according to the park information.The visit is absolutely worth it. Although the Brazilian side is also beautiful, if I had to choose, I would go with the views from the Argentine side.

Definitely a great experience. Well managed park. Lots of wildlife, just open your eyes and take your time. I recommend doing the devil's lookout at the end of the day as last, there won't be as many people.

Unmistakably one of the most beautiful places in the planet. The upper devil's throat was closed due to some flooding damage but there were so many trails to wander and explore. The crowds weren't too bad and there were so many butterflies everywhere!!! They really should call this butterfly national park.

Really well organised.Clean and tidy.Easy to get around all the trails.Some absolutely amazing sights.Entrance was $20USD, need your passport to get in.Boat ride was $40USD, for the adrenaline junkies!

On the border of three countries, Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, there is a national park and one of the wonders of the world, the largest waterfalls in the world, Iguazu. You must come and visit, enjoy the view of the power of nature and feel that power on your skin. Before you come, google info about this national park. You will not be sorry. After a speedboat ride under the waterfalls and a walk in the national park, you will go home satisfied and fulfilled.

Iguazú national Park was a definite must see when traveling here to Iguazú. The park was incredible with some of the most beautiful sights you could possibly see. The waterfalls were breathtaking. My only problem was that because of recent floodings we were not able to visit the devil's throat which was the biggest attraction at the park and one of the seven natural wonders of the world. It was still fun getting to explore the park with the animals roaming around us. It was very cold however and did start raining midway through so bringing a rain poncho would be a good idea.

Second time here and it's always a blast coming backAs usual the place is busy.Recommend wearing comfortable shoes as you'll be walking a lot.Buy your tickets online!Signage around the parks are well indicated.

Most beautiful place in the world. Make sure you start early so you can do every path and enjoy the time without running. The boat tour to get a shower under the waterfalls is totally worth it!

Such a beautiful place! Highly recommend visiting both Argentina and Brazil side! Also DO the BOAT ride!! (But expect to get soaked). It was so much fun!!

What an event! All day hikes, good food, and amazing scenery. Brings life into a little more focus. Lots to see before I kick the old bucket and start pushing up daisies and I'm very glad I included this place! Country number 41 for me and counting!

Spectacular natural wonder of the world that is a must see in Argentina or Brazil. We took a day-trip from Buenos Aires (long day with two flights) but completely worth it. We booked a private company to drive us to both the Argentinian and Brazilian sides of the falls. We felt the Brazilian side we slightly more impactful given the panoramic views of the falls, but both are impressive!

Beware, the main waterfall Devil's gate that you have seen on pictures is off limits. A lot of sight seeing locations are off limits too because of recent events. In short, you will see just 40% of the park that you can walk in 1.5 hours. If it rains and it rains often here, then Macuco route, tour boats and rafting will be unavailable too.Entree costs are 20 usd in January. Food ranges between 5 and 30 usd. Boat tour costs 50 usd.

This is easily one of the more beautiful parks you can visit in the world! The falls are obviously the main attraction but a lot more is offered. You'll be able to find good food and drinks inside. There's a trait to get you around the admittedly huge park. There are two expensive hotels inside the park if you want to stay inside. There are many many trails that are engaging on their own. Even the lesser visited visitors center is worth a stop to enjoy the exhibits and learn about the falls.The best view of the falls is probably from the lower (inferior) trail. The upper (superior) trail is more popular because it puts you right above the falls but the views aren't as nice. Plan to spend at least 5 hours in the park. You can get a Río Uruguay bus to leave the falls but you can only pay with cash. Coordinate your bus or driver before you arrive!

Brazilian side: Majestic. The staff were well trained and organized, friendly and worked well. Argentinian side: Gorgeous and full of butterflies. Views here and there.

Beautiful park, with many views of the falls from different angles,allowing for creati e photography. It has many many hiking trails, and you can spend the whole day wandering about. I got lost a couple of times. The trail directions are a little confusing, and it's a little hard to ask if you do not speak Spanish like me (my fault, I should try harder). I skipped the boat ride, as I had already done one other Brazil side...should have waited,I could have saved money as the Argentina one is cheaper. The Devil's Throat was closed due to damages caused by recent floods, so, if I had to compare, there were better views on the Brazil side. But all in all, these falls are out-thunders by the mighty Victoria Falls.

Easy parking. Not crowded. Beautiful views. Gift shops had a small selection. Local vendors selling the same tourist selections found most places.Only downside, we saw no natural wildlife. But lots of butterflies!

Beautiful park with magnificent waterfalls. If you’re planning to do the 3 hikes+boat tour+have a lunch, you won’t be able to finish all in one day. You can come next day using the same ticket and you’ll pay half price for entry. Bare in mind that in the boat tour, you will get completely wet as they will take you right under some waterfalls. The park has 3 restaurants (buffet, by weight and fast food) along with an ice cream shop and other small shops for snacks and beverages. We were lucky to encounter some animals.

Excellent! Argentina side of the park. The Devils Throat trail and train is closed due to Oct 2023 rains. Rest of the park is open to enjoy. 6 hours in the park total with the Adventure boat ride, and the other circuits and lunch (decent sandwich and 2 bottles of water USD$10). Didn't go on a busy season or day, but by our can get online tickets or get them there.Tip: fun to get your passport stamped at the visitor centre.

Really awesome experience that can literally take your breath away (e.g. Devil's throat sucked my wife's breath away from the power of the falls!). There are endless falls amongst the trails as far as the eye can see. The infrastructure is very good with sturdy foot bridges to all the falls so this is very much wheel chair accessible. Don't expect bargains for ticket prices or food. We paid $35000 pesos for each person, even children over 5.

Amazing place with a lot of waterfalls and butterflies. It was quite hot though. We walked through the yellow and blue trails and they were both very pretty. There were tons of butterflies and they will sit on you. There is 1 drinking eater tap each at the start of these 2 routes. We also took the route that is 3.5 km long (passes through the rail crossing) and were super disappointed as the water fall was quite small, and there were tourists in the water pool below the falls (There was a board that said not to enter the pool). Unfortunately, the devil's circuit was closed when we visited. But overall, it was a very good experience.

Incredible views on both the upper and lower hikes that will be remembered for a long time. The only critiques would be that we waited a while to get in because only one of the six ticket booths were open (but then a ton of staff where not needed once in the park), and one of the three hikes was fully closed. The price seemed a bit steep but overall I'm happy to have experienced it.

I loved it all! The walk, the views, the interpretation signs translated in English, the staff.I like the exhibition in the former hotel that nobody goes to.I saw a lot of wildlife: coatis, monkeys, lézards and butterfly.I think the boat ride is overpriced at around US$65, unless maybe if you've never been splashed by a waterfall in your life. I wouldn't recommend it.

Recently visited this site. Wow, what a great location! Such a nice experience. Beware, lots of mosquitos, very hot weather, but very worth it!

Beautiful!! Simply a must see. I prefer the Argentinian side of the falls but you have to see both. We did all the trails in one day, it offers free WiFi so we could easily communicate with our taxi driver.True gem of nature.

So pretty! We visited the Brazilian & Argentina side of the waterfalls and it was definitely worth it.Both sides have good trails and food/toilet/shops.

It is such a beautiful place to visit and spend time in nature and knowledgeable guides. You will see wildlife, but remember, they are wildlife. Appreciating nature in its all of its glory is amazing! Might be a bit tough for younger kids and elderly!

Everything was amazing and very well organized. Booking your ticket online is suggested in order to avoid the queue. It's possible to do the whole tour in one day, it will take approx. 5-5,5 hours if you also stop for photos (like me)😅The macuco path was really nice and there is a big possibility to see many animals on your way. It's a bit tiring though, because if the sun is up, the heat is too much. There is a small waterfall at the end when you can also have a refreshing dive, as an exchange!🌈Spectacular experience overall.

The park was definitely worth the effort. I didn't realize how built up it was but I went on a slow day so the crowd was reasonably small and the falls were amazing.I wasn't very impressed with the Grand Adventure Tour though. It gave a good view of the falls but running the boat into the falls just to soak everyone seemed unnecessary. They also failed to send the email so I could get the video I paid for.

Amazing!!!!!I visited on a rainy day and it was very slippery. Be aware!!!!Beside this little mention, the park, the views and the feelings which come up, are very powerful.Very enjoyable.By the way, there is no need of guidance. They take a lot of money ...

We visited the Brazilian and the Argentinian side. The Brazilian side was by far the better experience; the park is nicer, trails longer, the routes are well thought out and you get a mix of the thrill of being close to the waterfalls with the viewing points that show the beauty of the place. I was left disappointed on the Argentinian side as Devils throat was closed and the boat to San Marino island was also out of service...
