Iguazu Falls, one of the seven natural wonders of the world, is a must when visiting Brazil or Argentina. Here’s everything you need to know about visiting these stunning waterfalls!
Must Know
The falls flow at the highest rate during the summer from November to February. This means a lot more water, but also a lot of mist which can make it a little difficult to photograph.
Check out both sides of the falls! Even though Brazil offers the best overall view of the falls, there’s a lot more to do on the Argentina side and is much cheaper!
If you want the falls to yourself, consider staying at the Belmond Hotel on the Brazil side — it’s the only hotel in the national park so you can visit the falls after park hours and when it’s closed to the public on Mondays.
How to Get There
You can either fly in on the Argentina side or Brazil side. I was flying from Buenos Aires, so it was much cheaper to fly into the Argentinian side than Brazilian side. Since I was short on time, I wanted to go straight to the Brazilian side of the falls and booked an easy airport transfer that took me straight to the hotel. This company made it so easy!
