Guided tour

Pickup available

    • Explore the Brazilian side of Iguazu Falls with a bilingual guide, from wide panoramic walkways to viewpoints that put you right in front of the cascades.

    • Travel through Iguaçu National Park in an open-air vehicle, passing native Atlantic forest, orchids, bromeliads, and the chance to spot coatis, birds, and butterflies along the way.

    • Walk the Brazilian trails for sweeping views of the entire waterfall system and an up-close look at Devil’s Throat from the famous walkway and viewing platforms.

    • Ride the Macuco Safari boat along the Iguaçu River and feel the falls up close as the captain edges the boat toward the cascades, expect to get soaked in the spray.

    • Entry to Iguaçu National Park (Brazilian side)

    • Guided tour of the Brazilian side viewpoints

    • Macuco Safari jungle vehicle ride through the forest

    • Macuco Safari boat ride on the Iguaçu River near the falls

    • Professional bilingual guide (English, Spanish, and Portuguese)

    • Meals, snacks, and drinks during the tour

    • Hotel pickup and drop-off from non-listed or out-of-zone hotels

  • You can cancel these tickets up to 48 hours before the experience begins and get a full refund.

  • Start your day at the designated meeting point in Foz do Iguaçu, where you check in with your guide and join a small group. After a short briefing, you enter Iguaçu National Park and begin your journey toward the Brazilian side of the falls.

    Getting started

    Board an eco-friendly open vehicle and ride about 2km into the jungle. Your bilingual guide points out native plants, birds, and small mammals as you travel deeper into the Atlantic forest. From there, continue on foot along an easy trail that leads you toward the viewpoints.

    What to expect at Iguazu Falls (Brazilian side)

    Reach the panoramic walkways facing the full curtain of Iguazu Falls. This side is all about big, wide views, so you get sweeping photo angles of the entire waterfall system, including Devil’s Throat in the distance. You’ll have time to stop at viewing platforms, take photos, and soak in the scale of the falls.

    Macuco Safari boat adventure

    Next, head to the Macuco Safari base. After a quick safety briefing and gear check, board a motorboat on the Iguaçu River. Cruise through the canyon, then edge closer until you’re right by the falls. Expect to get wet as the boat dips in and out of the spray for that adrenaline kick and unforgettable close-up of the waterfalls.

    Wrapping up

    After the boat ride, you return to the dock and make your way back toward the park exit with your group. The tour then ends back at the starting point, giving you time to continue exploring Foz do Iguaçu or head back to your hotel.
