Garganta del Diablo

This wonder of nature permits the observation of one of the most unique landscapes in the World; constituted by the upper Iguazu River and the Subtropical Forest, which frame the incredible Devil's Throat balcony. Three ring-shaped balconies permit a special view of the colossal “throat”, the culmination of the journey: a giant horseshoe-shaped waterfall 150 meters / 492 feet long, and 80 meters / 262 feet high. Here the water falls with such potency that it creates dense clouds of vapor as it pours into the river below. From here you can experience such wonderful sensations, offering you amazing and unforgettable moments:- Just listening to the roar of the waterfalls - Feeling the vapor of waterfalls- Appreciating the rainbows that form amongst the clouds of water and rays of the sun - Admiring the contrasts of colors between the green forest and the blue sky, or the white color of the water foam and the red soil. - A separate spectacle is offered by the “vencejos” - birds unique to the Iguazu Falls that swoop down along the falls, as if they wanted to be confused with the curtains of water.This fabulous place is located 2080 m / 1 mile from the Devil's Station. You arrive by the Ecological Jungle Train, 5 km / 3miles from the Central Station. The Iguazu National Park Waterfalls Area has assorted activities. Along the upper and lower walkways you will be able to admire between 160 and 275 falls, the Devil's Throat being the most impressive one.

Iguazu Falls

Reviewed By milansebastian - London, United Kingdom

We made a fabulous 7-day trip through the northeast of Argentina, we started with the Ibera National Park, the visit to the wetlands is mandatory for wildlife lovers, we visited the Jesuit missions and the Mocona Falls and Encantado Falls, leaving the waterfalls From Iguazú, for the latter, it was a great success of our travel agency Tierra Colorada Turismo, otherwise you would not have enjoyed the previous attractions so much, the falls are fabulous, we visited the Argentine falls in one day and we took noon to visit the Brazilian falls with the bird park, during the excursion we also did a boat trip that was worth it. Without a doubt, a wonderful closure I highly recommend in Northeast Argentina.

Cataratas del Iguazu - Lado Argentino

Reviewed By mcitaly2016 - Santiago, Chile

80% of the park is in Argentina, and one can see the most part of the waterfalls very closely, sometime right on top (or at the bottom) of them. There are 3 paths. The most beautiful (and crowded) is Devil´s Throat day that one reaches with the internal train from the park entrance. The other paths are the Upper and the Lower Trail, all beautiful. Each one requires 1.5/2 hour walk, but quite easy and almost all flat. If you go in summer prepare for 35c and 90% humidity, so bring plenty of water and use light clothes. You will most likely get wet at the Devil´s Throat due to the vapor clouds above the waterfalls. There are monkeys and birds easy to spot. Prepare for long queue at the entrance, but worth it. Inside there are bars.

Puerto Iguazu

Reviewed By Curiosity182286

If you love nature, you must put Ig Falls on your bucket list. It was on mine and I was more than pleased. One of the seven natural wonders of the world and most people haven't heard of it. A little hard to get to but not bad from either Buenos Aires or Rio. You need 2 days to do it justice. One from the Brazilian side and one from the Argentinian side. The zodiac boat ride up the rapids and into the falls is a must. Yes you will get soaked, but that's the point. If you do the helicopter ride, opt for the short version. The longer version is not worth the money. Look into hiring a local guide that speaks good english and can get you front of the line entrance to the falls. The lines can be very long. Best to arrive at 8AM at the latest.

Guiraoga

Reviewed By greg_wanders - Auckland Central, New Zealand

Wasn't expecting much before visiting as all the advertisements in the hotels are for the Bird Park in Foz de Iguazu in Brazil. Guira Oga pleasantly surprised us and was great to see some of the wildlife that would be hard to spot most of the time. This is NOT a Zoo , but a rehabilitation center for the animals which have been bred in captivity and will be released in the wild once they are ready hanks to the conservation efforts by the people who work here. So your entrance fee of 400 ARS goes towards this cause. From the entrance, a tractor takes you to the start of the walk which is about 10 minutes away. You get to see beautiful parrots , Tucans, Eagles, Vultures etc. In addition several animals including crocodiles and leopards. A great place to spend a few hours in Puerto Iguazu after you hectic day at the Falls.

Hito Tres Fronteras

Reviewed By N8745IOwilliamp - Colorado Springs, United States

So nice little place to kill a few hours. From the bus station it's probably a 20 minute walk or you can take a bus down there for about $2. I think the best pictures are taken from up above from the highest point. I'm like four corners in the United States you can't stand on all 3 places at once. Cuz the actual corners are in the middle of the river.
