The park was declared Natural World Heritage in 1984, due to its scenic beauties and the great biological diversity of the subtropical jungle. The famous falls are in the heart of this Park.

You will start the visit at the Local Museum and continue the tour along the Lower Trail, from where you can see the "Two sisters Falls", the "Bossetti Fall", the "Hidden Fall", a panoramic view of "San Martin island" and the "Union Fall".

Later you will walk the Upper Trail shifting along walkways located above major falls up to the majestic "San Martin Fall” from where you have a panoramic view of the Brazilian falls.

Finally, you go with the Train of the Jungle up to "Devil's Throat" station. From there, after a 1,000 meters walk along the catwalks, you will reach the spectacular "Devil's Throat", where the Iguazu river expresses itself with all its strength and the falling water gives the illusion of magic rainbows. You will be transferred back to accommodation

Note: after the tour to the Argentine or the Brazilian side, the guide will offer you to drop you off at Yabuticaba Market instead of at your accomodation. It is a very nice place to chill, buy some argentine goods (wines, yerba mate, dulce de leche, alfajores, icea cream, etc.), have a drink or a coffe or even have dinner. It is a gastronomic complex with very good taste and it is really worth a visit.  It opens from 4 pm to midnight.
