Described on their website as “One of the most important destinations in Argentina, Brazil and South America“, the Iguazu Falls surely is spectacular. The falls are often compared to Niagara and Victoria falls, but it has its own beauty and scenic nature that will leave you wanting for more.
The Iguazu National Park consists of two national parks, one in Foz de Iguazu (Brazil) and the other one in Puerto Iguazu (Argentina). Iguazu National Park is home to many fauna and flora species.

You’ll need 1 or 2 days to do both sides. One day is possible, but it might feel a bit rushed. We recommend taking your time and booking overnight accommodation in one of the many fabulous places.
