Guests enter before it opens to the public. The falls only for you at sunrise. It is on the Brazilian side.

AC is not optional in summer

Ask about the shuttle before booking

Many downtown hotels offer free transfer to the Park. It can save you USD 15-20 per day on cabs.

Always book with free cancellation

Most hotels on Booking offer it at no extra cost. There is no reason to choose a non-refundable rate.

High season: July and January

Hotels near the Park sell out 30-60 days in advance. Prices go up to 40%.

Argentina or Brazil?

If you arrive in Puerto Iguazu, stay in Argentina. If you arrive in Foz do Iguaçu, staying in Brazil the first night saves on transfers.
