A LUXURY VACATION TO THE IGUAÇU FALLS
Set in subtropical rainforest, the Iguaçu Falls, meaning ‘Big Water’ in Guarani, straddle the border between Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay.
One of the world’s largest waterfall systems, Iguaçu is made up of hundreds of cascades that plunge into the river below, surrounded by Atlantic rainforest. Trails and walkways along its edge wind to a succession of viewpoints, each offering a new perspective on its drama.
A tailor-made trip to Iguaçu Falls with us might see you standing above the thunder of the Devil’s Throat, exploring by boat beneath the spray, or lifting off in a helicopter for the full panorama – this is a place where the scale and force of nature is laid bare.
THINGS TO SEE AND DO IN IGUAÇU FALLS
Those on short stays should stay in the National Park with sensational views of Iguaçu Falls, while our favourite jungle lodge is a better bet for those who want to stay longer.
We suggest allowing at least one full day to explore both sides of the Falls. While it is impossible to avoid the crowds altogether, we recommend hitting the walkways on the Argentine side as early as possible – usually around 8 am – leaving the afternoon free to explore by boat and helicopter.
With more time, we can arrange private birdwatching trips with expert naturalists, guided rainforest treks, and kayaking along the Iguaçu River.
Every journey with us is tailor-made, designed around your preferences, passions and pace. Our strength lies in opening doors to Brazil’s most remote corners with the people who know them best.
