This was an amazing experience! The guides were very passionate about the park and preserving the wildlife at Iguazu. We learned a lot on this tour and would recommend it to anyone visiting. Make sure you bring a change of clothes :)

Wet and wild

Silvia_B, Sep 2026
You must do this trip if visiting Iguazu falls. So much fun and an amazing opportunity to see falls up close. Be prepared to get wet and bring a change of clothes

Go Direct, Not with Viator

Eileen_S, Dec 2025
This is an incredible tour but no need to book with Viator. By booking with Viator, you have to wait for the office to receive a voucher from Viator (not the one Viator gives you). And I wouldn’t be surprised if we paid more

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Hello Eileen, Thanks for your comments. You can go and book directly on the spot, but there is a high chance that there may be no availability at the time of booking. While booking through Viator involves an additional fee, it does secure your spot for this very popular activity. Best regards,

Amazing but Beware! This is a strenuous and potentially dangerous activity.

The boat trip was amazing but unexpectedly difficult. When you arrive people with any kind of disabilities including hearing aids are not allowed to go on the trip. There are 300 stairs down to the river to get on the boat. And you must reclimb the 300 stairs to get back. They give you a dry bag for your personal items but you must carry this about halfway up the stairs on the way back in your hands and can’t use your backpack. This was heavy for me. I thought it also was very dangerous! They get very close to the rocks at the base in big waves so that the passengers can get wet from the waterfalls. Being on the boat in the river close to the falls was like high water on a Grand Canyon river trip! I thought it was very dangerous. But my friend loved it! So you decide.

great time.... don't worry about rain coat - just wear sandels or bathing suit.. so no worries about clothes getting wet

Feel the power of the falls and get soaked.

The boat ride was fantastic. Being so close to the falls is a great experience. The communication prior to check in was slightly confusing. We did not require our passports as we were already staying in the park. The “ticket” that was sent I. The email a few days prior to the boat ride was not the voucher that the check-in counter required. That was sent the morning of the ride a few hours prior to the trip. Take kot of the time you book when making the reservation as the emails they send you have no reference to the booking time. Luckily we were in the slow season and plenty of space on the early boat. I recommend this trip.

Make sure to hire a driver to get you to the park entrance. We stayed on the Brazil side and you need to exit Brazil and enter Argentina before the falls and need to allow for extra time to do so. The jeep guides were knowledgeable and friendly. The boat was awesome! You will get soaked bring extra clothes,

Paid and we weren't allowed with

Funny but not very exciting

Zueleyha_E, Jan 2026
It was funny but not very special for me. I prefer the helicopter flight which was even cheaper.
