4-Day Iguazu Falls

Greeting at the airport and transfer to your hotel.

The rest of the day is at leisure.

Note: if you arrive before noon we can arrange for additional half-day tours (not included, additional fees apply).

Declared "World Heritage Site" by the UNESCO. Located on the border of the Brazilian state of Parana and the Argentine province of Misiones, the falls divide the river into the upper and lower Iguazu. The waterfall system consists of 275 falls along 2.7 kilometers (1.67 miles). Some of the individual falls are up to 82 meters (269 ft) in height, though the majority are about 64 meters (210 ft). Two thirds of the falls are within Argentine territory. About 900 meters of the 2.7-kilometer length does not have water flowing over it. The edge of the basalt cap recedes only 3 mm (0.1 in) per year. The water of the lower Iguazu collects in a canyon that drains into the Parana River at Argentina, shortly downstream from the Itaipu Dam.
