8.Day Trip to the Argentinian Side of Iguassu Falls from Foz do Iguaçu

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 177 reviews · 4 to 6 hours (approx.) · from $58

Cross from Foz do Iguaçu into Argentina with a local guide such as Roberto, Henrique, or Fabio, then explore the Lower and Upper Circuits and Devil’s Throat.

“It was great to have a guide take us to the Argentinian side of the Falls from Foz do Iguaçu. Makes the border crossing quick and effortless. Because we had 2 people in our group that had opted for the Brazilian side on the same day, I felt like we were rushing around to make sure they would have enough time for the second part of their tour. I picked a tour of just the Argentinian size specifically because I didn't want to be rushed. The people in the group should all be doing the same thing so we're not on someone else's schedule.”
