1. Iguazu Falls
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 44,476 reviews
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!

We went on the waterfall/jungle tour with Jango Tours and the Toboga was one of our stops on the day. The surfers at this spot are insane, blindfolding themselves with leaves while flipping and sliding down the rocks on their feet! It is an amazing natural formation that is loads of fun to slide down a few times into the natural, cool pool. Don't miss the chance to do this if you're in the area.

Inner peace and respect for nature. 40 km far from the center of Pirenopolis, in the area that also includes the Eisho-ji Zen Monastery, the 8 waterfalls surprise on a trail in deep contact with nature and its beauties. Each waterfall, with its dragon-related mythology, invites everyone who wants to experience a special tour. Instagram: @cachoeirasdosdragoes

You need to enter by a restrict area (paying a small fee) and then park your car. With a 500meters walk (good trail, with stones in the ground) you reach a small sand beach in front of the waterfall. The water is refreshing, the view is nice and it’s a safe place too (2 lifeguards). The people ate most families, couples and small groups of friends. Has a snack bar close the waterfall (snacks, beer, water, sodas, etc). The entire place is cool and deserve a visit. Don’t miss a small gazebo wood in the trail, you can ger good photos over there. And you can get a good one over the wood bridge too.
