Iguazú Falls Argentina and Brazil​ Full-Day Tour from Brazil

Pickup from your accommodation in Foz do Iguaçu

The experience begins with a shared pickup service from your accommodation in downtown Foz do Iguaçu. The tour starts with a visit to the Argentine side, so you’ll be taken to Iguazú National Park to begin a full-day tour exploring both sides of the falls.

Arrival at Iguazú National Park - Visitor Center

Once you arrive at Iguazú National Park, you’ll need to show your QR code or printed admission ticket purchased online in advance to gain entry.

💡HOWLANDERS TIP: If you haven’t been able to purchase or print your tickets in advance, your guide can help you do so upon arrival at the park, but please note that we recommend avoiding this option due to the delays and long lines it entails.

Upper Trail and Devil's Gorge

You’ll then continue on to the Upper Trail, a roughly 1,100-meter route featuring panoramic viewpoints where you can admire the waterfalls from above and get up close to the cascades.

Later, you’ll board the park’s eco-friendly train to head toward the Devil’s Throat area. From there, you’ll walk along a 1,100-meter-long scenic boardwalk built over the river, offering spectacular views of one of Iguazú’s most breathtaking waterfalls.

Transfer to Brazil: Crossing the border between Argentina and Brazil

After visiting the Argentine side, you’ll leave the park and board the bus again to cross the Tancredo Neves International Bridge—also known as the Fraternity Bridge—which connects Argentina and Brazil over the Iguazú River. Upon arriving at the border checkpoint, you’ll stop to complete the formalities for exiting Argentina and entering Brazil. Your guide will handle this process and coordinate the stops to expedite the crossing. Please note that this process usually involves some waiting time.

Depending on the travelers’ nationality, you may be required to present a passport, ID card, or visa.*

Once you’ve passed through the border checkpoint, you’ll continue the tour to Iguaçu National Park.
