The colossal power of these thundering falls, viewable from both Argentina and Brazil, and accessible from Paraguay, is a mesmerizing sight: 275 separate falls in a U-shaped formation pound the water below in raging cascades with a deafening intensity.

Iguazu Falls was simply stunning, beyond description. We saw the Falls from both the Argentinean side, up close and personal with the deafening roar of the water in our ears, and from the Brazilian side, from lofty platforms with panoramic views above the Falls. It was magnificent and will be forever memorable. We had one gray cloudy day on the Argentinean side that made for dramatic moody photos, and a cool but bright sunny day on the Brazilian side where brilliant rainbows were everywhere on the water. This is well worth a visit. Our guide Carlos with G Adventures was awesome! He guided us to the best viewpoints on both sides, gave us ample time to absorb the beauty around us, and filled us in on the layout of the Falls, geology and history of the area, etc. Highly recommended!

Parque Nacional do Iguacu was excellent! The park was clean, staff people were helpful and easy to understand We would highly recommend coming to see the falls, especially on both sides because you're able to appreciate the scale from a full perspective.

The devil's throat gobbles you up...the sheer volume of water, the noise, the scenery is exceptionally beautiful. I spent most of the time forgetting to take photos because I was so entranced by what was at the end of that long boardwalk. It was fantastic to do the Brazil side first...the magical landscape and hundreds of falls and to get a glimpse of the Argentine side...but not really know what is there. The next day, we grabbed an early morning tour to the Argentina side, missing most of the crowds and the tour buses. What an amazing time for us. Loved it.
