Review & FAQ:
The Iguazu Falls are the largest system of waterfalls in the world, stretching almost 9,000 feet in width, which makes them about four times the width of Niagara Falls. They are located directly on the border of Brazil and Argentina, and visitors can see the falls from either country, each with a different vantage point. On the Brazilian side, visitors can take a bus to the Foz do Iguacu trailhead, where they can then walk a short trail to come face to face with a full panoramic view of the giant waterfalls. Guests can also opt to take a helicopter ride over the falls for a full aerial view or take a longer hike on the Poço Preto Trail, which extends for about 5.5 miles.
