Things to Do in Puerto Iguazu
Puerto Iguazu is one of the main tourist destinations in Misiones and one of the cities of the Triple Frontier. Besides Iguazu Falls, there are several other places to explore during a stay in the city.
Delmax Viajes y Turismo offers private transfers from Puerto Iguazu to make it easier to reach different attractions in Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay.
Things to do in Puerto Iguazu
Puerto Iguazu is the base city for exploring Iguazu Falls and getting around the Triple Frontier, the point where Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay meet.
From Puerto Iguazu it's possible to arrange transfers to attractions in all three countries, coordinating each visit according to each traveler's time and preferences.
How to get to the Argentine Falls from Puerto Iguazu
The Argentine Falls are located within Iguazu National Park, on the Argentine side, a short distance from Puerto Iguazu. There are different transfer options to get there, including public transportation and private tourist services.
Delmax offers a private round-trip transfer from Puerto Iguazu to the Argentine Falls. The entrance fee to the National Park is not included in the transfer price and is paid at the park entrance.
How to get to the Brazilian Falls from Puerto Iguazu
To visit the Brazilian Falls you need to cross the border into Foz do Iguacu, Brazil, with the usual immigration and customs checks between the two countries.
It's important to carry the appropriate documentation to cross the border. Since requirements can vary, we recommend checking the relevant official sources before your trip.
Delmax offers a private transfer from Puerto Iguazu to the Brazilian Falls.
How to get from Puerto Iguazu to Foz do Iguacu
There are different ways to travel from Puerto Iguazu to Foz do Iguacu: public transportation, taxi or private driver, and a private tourist transfer.
Public transportation tends to be an economical option, though it involves coordinating schedules and possible connections. A taxi or private service offers on-the-spot flexibility. A private tourist transfer is designed for those seeking comfort, a previously coordinated meeting point and a direct route to the chosen attraction.
How to get from Puerto Iguazu to Ciudad del Este
Ciudad del Este is in Paraguay, on the other side of the Triple Frontier, and also requires crossing a border checkpoint.
It's advisable to plan the transfer schedule and take into account the documentation required to cross.
Delmax offers a private transfer to Ciudad del Este, including services combined with other attractions when the traveler prefers.
What documentation to consider for Brazil
Documentation requirements for entering Brazil can vary depending on nationality, age and each traveler's particular situation.
We recommend checking current requirements at the relevant official sources before planning your trip.
What documentation to consider for Paraguay
Likewise, the requirements for entering Paraguay can vary for each traveler.
Before traveling, we recommend confirming current conditions at the relevant official sources.
Argentine Falls vs. Brazilian Falls
The Argentine Falls, within Iguazu National Park, offer a route with different walkways that let you get close to several waterfalls, including the Devil's Throat.
The Brazilian Falls, on the Foz do Iguacu side, offer a panoramic view of the whole set of falls from a shorter route.
Both experiences can complement each other during the same stay. Choosing one or both sides depends on the time available, each traveler's interests and trip planning.
How many days should you stay in Puerto Iguazu?
The ideal number of days depends on how many attractions each traveler wants to visit.
