Iguazu Falls Argentina Side Tour with Boat Ride

▶OPTION 1: Standard tour (only Argentine side falls)◀

Pick up in Puerto Iguazu

Your Iguazu Falls Argentina Side Tour begins with pickup at your accommodation in Puerto Iguazú between 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m., depending on your location. Once everyone is on board, your guide will share important details about the day’s itinerary, meeting points, and return times as you head toward the park.

Arrival at Iguazu National Park

After a 25-minute ride, you’ll arrive at Iguazú National Park. Your guide will assist you in purchasing your entrance ticket. You can choose between a one-day or two-day pass in case you want to return the next day. If you’ve already purchased your ticket online, you’ll receive the physical version here.

Central Station - Green Train 🚋

Time to kick off your adventure! You’ll board the park’s Ecological Train, which runs on clean-burning liquefied gas and travels at a gentle pace (under 12 mph / 20 km/h) to preserve the local wildlife.

The half-hour ride takes you deep into the jungle, and it's the only way to reach the Devil’s Throat walkway—your first destination.

Devil's Throat

Once off the train, you’ll take a scenic walk along an elevated walkway that leads to the most iconic viewpoint in the park: the Devil’s Throat. The name "Iguazú" comes from the Guaraní language and means “big water”—and when you arrive here, you’ll understand why.

You’ll witness an astonishing volume of water plunging into the river from a height of over 260 feet (80 meters), accompanied by a thunderous roar that echoes through the canyon.

Superior Circuit

Next, you’ll head back on the train toward Cataratas Station to begin the Upper Circuit trail. This walkway offers a bird’s-eye view of several of the Argentine side's waterfalls, including Dos Hermanas, Ramírez, Bosetti, Adán y Eva, Bernabé Méndez, and San Martín.

Walking along catwalks suspended above the river, you’ll feel like you’re floating over the falls!

Lower Circuit

The Lower Circuit brings you even closer to the action. This 0.9-mile (1.4-km) trail includes shaded areas and stairs, offering a more active and immersive experience.

If the views from above were breathtaking, the ones from below are simply unforgettable. You’ll be surrounded by cascades up to 640 feet (195 meters) high—nearly twice the height of the Statue of Liberty!

Lunch

After a full morning of exploration, it’s time to recharge. Your guide will escort you to the dining area inside the park, where you’ll have about two hours to eat and relax. Choose from:

• El Fortín – Buffet with grilled meats
• Jaguar House – À la carte dining
• Fast food stand – Quick bites for those on the go

📌 Note: Lunch is not included in the tour price.

If you’ve chosen Option 1, your Iguazu Falls Argentina Side Tour ends here with the return trip to your accommodation in Puerto Iguazú.

▶OPTION 2: Waterfalls + 4x4 tour + speedboat ride◀

Great Adventure Add-On

If you’re up for more excitement, extend your day with the Great Adventure, an adrenaline-packed combo of jungle exploration and river navigation.

4x4 Jungle Ride

Hop aboard an open 4x4 truck and journey along the Yacaratiá Trail, one of the park’s most biodiverse areas. A bilingual guide will point out native plants and wildlife as you travel through the subtropical rainforest.

Speedboat Ride to the Falls

Next, get ready for the ultimate thrill: a speedboat ride through the Lower Iguazú River rapids. You’ll receive waterproof bags to protect your belongings—because you will get wet!

The boat brings you right up to the base of the falls for an up-close and exhilarating encounter. It’s a moment of pure fun—consider it your "baptism by water" in the middle of one of the world’s most stunning landscapes.

Return to Puerto Iguazú

Around 5:30 p.m., your group will meet at the designated spot for the return trip to your hotel. You’ll arrive back in Puerto Iguazú ready to rest, dry off, and reflect on an unforgettable day at Iguazu Falls.
