What you'll do on day 4
- Breakfast at the hotel. Transfer to the airport with your driver. Flight to Foz do Iguaçu. Arrival at Foz do Iguaçu Airport. You will be met by your driver, who will take you to the hotel.
- At the great Foz do Iguaçu Falls, you will find the tri-border area between Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina. Once a border military post, the region developed thanks to construction and tourism. The Iguaçu Falls take their name from the Caigangue Indigenous language, meaning “great waters.” Formed by the Iguaçu River, the falls consist of 275 individual cascades surrounded by the pristine forest of Iguaçu National Park, home to about 2,000 plant species and 400 bird species (including parrots and toucans).
- The highest fall, the “Garganta do Diabo” (Devil’s Throat), reaches 70 meters (230 ft), one and a half times higher than Niagara Falls. You can also enjoy stunning views from one of the many walking trails, try rafting, or take an exhilarating boat ride under the waterfalls.
