"Did the Gran Aventura boat ride as part of our tour and got completely soaked! It was the highlight of the trip. The lower circuit was beautiful and our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the local rainforest plants and birds."

"Bloody brilliant day out. The upper circuit views are next level and give you a real sense of how massive the falls are. Watch out for those cheeky coatis though, one literally tried to nick my empanada right out of my hand at the food court."

"We booked a day trip crossing over from Brazil, and our guide handled the border checks perfectly, which saved us so much time. Standing over the Devil's Throat was insane. The sheer power of the water is something you have to see to believe."

"We opted for a private tour since I was traveling with my elderly parents. The eco-train was a lifesaver for them, and the flat steel walkways made it very easy to navigate. Just remember you have to buy the park tickets separately online."

"It's a long day of walking but totally worth it. Our guide Carlos was fantastic at navigating the crowds and getting us on the first train to Devil's Throat. Make sure you bring a dry bag for your phone because the mist is heavy."

What to Expect on Your Iguazu Falls Argentina Side Tour

A tour of the Argentine side of Iguazu Falls offers an immersive, up-close encounter with the world's largest waterfall system. You will navigate a vast network of jungle trails and suspended steel walkways that bring you right to the edge of the roaring cascades.

🌊

Devil's Throat

Ride the Ecological Rainforest Train to the park's main attraction. Stand on the suspended walkway just 50 meters from the 82-meter-high horseshoe canyon as millions of liters of water crash down.

🚶‍♂️

The Upper Circuit

Traverse elevated steel walkways that offer panoramic, wide-angle views of the waterfall system. This trail gives you a spectacular aerial perspective of the cascades plunging into the lush canyon below.

🌿

The Lower Circuit

Hike the 2.5-kilometer trail into the dense, humid Atlantic rainforest. Get incredibly close to the heavy mist and rushing waters of Salto Bosetti and Dos Hermanas Falls.

🚤

Gran Aventura Boat Ride

Board a twin-engine speedboat and race up the turbulent rapids of the Iguazu River. The captain drives directly into the roaring spray of the falls, guaranteeing you will get completely soaked.

🚂

Ecological Train

Board this open-air, gas-powered narrow-gauge train that winds through 7 kilometers of dense subtropical jungle. It connects the park entrance to the main trailheads.

🐒

Wildlife Spotting

Keep an eye out for the park's diverse wildlife as you walk the trails. You will likely encounter curious coatis, colorful toucans, and maybe even catch a glimpse of monkeys in the canopy.

Things to Know Before Booking

Planning your tour to the Argentine side of Iguazu Falls requires a bit of preparation, especially regarding border crossings and park fees. Here is what you need to know before securing your spot.

Park Entrance Fees

Most tours do not include the Argentine National Park entrance fee, which is currently 35,000 ARS (around $32 to $44.50 USD). You will need to purchase this separately online in advance to skip the queues at the gate.

Border Crossings

If your tour departs from Foz do Iguaçu (Brazil), you will be crossing an international border. A valid physical passport is mandatory, and you must check if your nationality requires an e-visa for either country.

Tour Options

You can choose between large group excursions, small-group tours, and private guides. Private tours offer flexibility and let you navigate the park at your own pace, which is great for avoiding the biggest crowds.

Boat Ride Restrictions

The Gran Aventura speedboat ride is a thrilling add-on, but it has strict safety rules. Children under 12, pregnant travelers, and anyone with spinal injuries or heart conditions are not permitted to ride.

Physical Requirements

While much of the park is flat and accessible, a full-day tour involves walking several kilometers in a hot, humid environment. The Lower Circuit also has some stairs, so a moderate level of fitness is recommended.

Cancellation Policies

The vast majority of guided tours offer a flexible cancellation policy. You can typically cancel up to 24 hours before your scheduled departure time for a full refund.

What to Wear

You will get wet, especially if you take the boat ride or stand near the Devil's Throat. Wear quick-dry clothing, sturdy non-slip shoes, and bring a waterproof bag to protect your phone and camera.

Plan Your Visit to Iguazu Falls

The Argentine side of Iguazu National Park is open 365 days a year.

  • Daily Hours: 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM
  • Last Entry: 4:30 PM
  • Last Train to Devil's Throat: Departs Cataratas Station at approximately 3:30 PM

Aim to arrive right at 8:00 AM to catch the first Ecological Rainforest Train and beat the massive tour groups to the most popular viewpoints.

Getting to the Argentine side of the falls is straightforward from both Puerto Iguazú (Argentina) and Foz do Iguaçu (Brazil).

  • From Puerto Iguazú (Bus): Public buses run by Rio Uruguay depart every 20-30 minutes from the town's main terminal on Avenida Córdoba. The 18 km ride takes about 30 minutes and costs $1-2 USD.
  • From Puerto Iguazú (Taxi): Taxis are plentiful and cost around $20-25 USD. Note that ride-sharing apps like Uber do not operate in Puerto Iguazú.
  • From Foz do Iguaçu: If you are crossing the border independently, you will need to take a bus or taxi and clear immigration at both the Brazilian and Argentine checkpoints. Many visitors opt for a guided cross-border tour to simplify this process.

The ideal time to visit Iguazu Falls is during the shoulder seasons of autumn and spring.

  • Best Months: April to May and September to October offer pleasantly warm weather, high water levels, and fewer crowds.
  • Worst Months: January and late July coincide with local school holidays, resulting in massive crowds. January and February are also exceptionally hot, humid, and prone to afternoon thunderstorms.

Time of day matters too. Arrive early in the morning to enjoy cooler temperatures and better lighting for photography.

Iguazu Falls is highly accessible, ensuring visitors of all mobility levels can enjoy the natural wonder.

  • Wheelchair Access: Approximately 90% of the Argentine side is accessible. The park features adapted steel walkways and ramps. The Upper Circuit and Devil's Throat trails are completely flat.
  • Free Wheelchairs: Conventional wheelchairs are available free of charge at the visitor center on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • Transportation: The Ecological Rainforest Train is wheelchair accessible and helps minimize walking distances between trailheads.
  • Lower Circuit: This trail has some stairs and steeper sections, making it more challenging for wheelchair users and those with limited mobility.

The park is well-equipped to handle thousands of daily visitors with modern amenities.

  • Food and Drink: There are food courts, bistros, and restaurants located near the main stations. However, watch out for the coatis who will aggressively try to steal your food!
  • Restrooms: Clean washrooms are available at the entrance, Cataratas Station, and near the major trailheads.
  • Wi-Fi: Cellular service is very spotty in the jungle. Free Wi-Fi is available at the visitor center, so download offline maps before starting your hike.
  • Lockers: Lockers are available at the park entrance to store excess baggage if you are visiting in transit.

To protect the fragile ecosystem and ensure visitor safety, the park strictly enforces several rules.

  • No Drones: Flying drones is strictly prohibited without official, pre-arranged permits to prevent wildlife disturbance and ensure safety.
  • Do Not Feed Wildlife: Never feed or touch the coatis or monkeys. Coatis can become aggressive, bite, and carry diseases. Keep all food securely zipped in your bag.
  • Stay on the Trails: Do not climb over safety barriers or wander off the marked walkways.
  • No Swimming: Swimming in the Iguazu River or near the waterfalls is strictly forbidden due to dangerous currents.
