Embark on an unforgettable journey to Iguazu Falls, one of the world’s most awe-inspiring natural wonders, located where Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay meet.
Your day begins with a motorcoach transfer from the port to the airport in Buenos Aires. From there, you'll board a flight to Iguazu Falls, with a flight time of approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes.
Upon arrival, you’ll spend 4 to 5 hours inside Iguazu National Park exploring the Argentine side of the falls. Your visit includes a train ride to Devil’s Throat, the most dramatic viewpoint. A guided walk covering about one mile will lead you through stunning vantage points overlooking more than 250 cascading waterfalls, some towering over twice the height of Niagara Falls. If time allows, you’ll continue along the Upper Circuit Trail to take in a second panoramic view.
After your visit, you'll transfer back to the airport and return to Buenos Aires by air, rejoining your ship by evening.
