About this activity
Enjoy a package that combines Iguassu Falls with different perspectives, a visit to the prominent Itaipu Dam, a panoramic city tour and a safe and reliable roundtrip transportation.
Rely on comfortable and safe airport transfers. You’ll be met at the airport and taken directly to your hotel and vice-versa. A representative will greet you when you clear airport customs and at your hotel lobby. Leave all the work to the staff and just relax on a quiet and comfortable transportation.
Once you ensure your transportation, it is time to behold nature phenomenon. Nothing in the world of water compares to, or is more impressive than the natural spectacle provided by the stunning group of 275 waterfalls that make up the Iguassu Waterfalls.
After hotels pick ups, tourists head towards Iguazu National Park, located in Argentina. A different view across the border portrays this wonderful natural beauty in an exciting way. From the visitor center a train departs every 30 minutes with stops for access to the upper and lower circuits or throat of the devil. You can walk all the walkways or only those that are convenient
Then the tourists return to the bus and head towards the Iguassu National Park. Embrained on the rocks with its 275 jumps, the Iguaçu Falls are the largest set of waterfalls in the world surrounded by the lush subtropical forest. The 01-kilometer course is done on foot with lookouts, lift bridges and souvenir shops. Wild animals such as the friendly Quati amuse tourists. Birds and butterflies give a special color to the place. After the visit to the Park on the Brazilian side, the passengers return to the bus that will take them to their respective hotels.
On the other day, you will visit the incredible Itaipu Hydroelectric Dam. Besides the production of energy, Itaipu also stands as a symbol of environment preservation. The company runs the Biological Haven Bela Vista, continuous reforestation programs and projects that foster fish production as well as wild animal reproduction.
There is also an Eco-museum that tells the story of the construction and maintenance of this unrivaled work.
There are two options of tours on Itaipu Dam:
* The Panoramic tour: Watch a documentary film on the power plant. See the dam and spillway from the central observation deck (without entering the facility)
* The Technical tour: The same as the Panoramic tour, but also includes a visit to the facilities of Itaipu Dam.
As the ticket is not included, you can decide which option on the spot.
Then tourists contemplates visits to the Ecomuseum of Itaipu, the muslim mosque, which is one of the largest mosques in Brazil, offering an internal tour showing the culture of the Muslim people. We will also visit the Buddhist Temple with all its magnitude.
We also pass through the center of Foz do Iguaçu while you learn about histories and curiosities of the city.
