Iguazú is spectacular. When you get to the park, you have to go to the “Central Station” which is where the trains that take you to the devil’s throat leave. There are four main routes. The lower route, the upper route, the macuco path and the route of the throat of the devil. The first three are done by walking while to go to the devil’s throat you have to take a little train. The first thing everyone does is stand in line to catch the train that goes to the throat, if you do that prepare to be waiting for an hour and a half at least until it’s your turn. The best from our point of view is to first do the pedestrian routes that will take you about three hours quietly between the lower and upper and another three hours the Macuco trail and when you return to the central station there are no queues and you are more comfortable.
Bottom stroke:
In the lower route, the Dos Hermanas falls, the Chico jump and the Bossetti jump that you see from below and the Alvar Nuñez and Lanusse jumps that you see from above stand out.
Top travel:
On the upper route you see these same jumps from above and you also see the Adam and Eve jumps, the Bernabé Mendez jump and the Mbigua jump.
In addition to these tours that are included in the ticket, you have several tours for which you have to pay an additional cost. The safari or the great nautical adventure are the best known. If you only have one day you will have to choose between one or the other because it will not give you time to do everything in the same day. Personally the subject of the boat is not what attracts me the most, we already did it in Niagara Falls and although it was not bad, you get lost and you cannot take photos because you take the camera, I prefer the safari or tour the jungle. But each one does what they want naturally.
One of the things I liked the most, not only about the natural park, but about the destination and the place is the vegetation. You are in the jungle, literally. When you leave the airport, what you see on each side is a green wall of vegetation. It’s spectacular, at least for me, I’m not used to it at all. I loved looking anywhere and seeing a lush, super green and unknown vegetation. The earth is red, an ocher red color that also permeates everything. Humidity, around 90% and considerable heat, around 30 degrees during the day, although it cools down at night.
Devil’s throat:
It is an immense waterfall of about 80 meters high. Hard to describe. The water falls with such power that the waterfall itself generates a vaporized column of water that rises towards the sky.
