recesses and footbridges that extend almost 1 kilometer out upon
the water bringing you close to the mightiest and most spectacular
site in South America. Overnight in Foz de Iguaçu.
Day 7
After a delicious tropical style buffet breakfast, we will have
a full day visit of the Argentinean side of the Waterfalls and the
Itaipu Dam that links Brazil and Paraguay together. You will have
the chance during the passage towards the Argentine side to cross
a 480 meters bridge that was constructed in 1985 and is known as
the Bridge of Brotherhood. Visitors arrive in the Iguaçu
National park through a delightful Visitors Center equipped with
an optimal structure: rest rooms, first aid room and plaques that
illustrate the spectacular biodiversity of the park. From here,
we start off through two eco-stations via ecological trains, specially
prepared for low environmental impact tourism. The duration of each
train is approximately 15 minutes. The first visit is of the superior
part, and then we will move to the inferior or lower part before
reaching the impressive gorge and waterfall called "The Devil's
Throat." From the Argentine side, you will have a direct view,
maybe the best view of the day of the 275 waterfalls that make up
the Foz de Iguaçu waterfalls. And finally, we continue to
our last stop at the Itaipu Dam, where the magnitude of development
is surrounded by pristine beauty and has raised worldwide attention
turning the Itaipu power station into one of the main tourism attractions
in the Foz do Iguaçu area. Overnight in enchanting Foz de
Iguaçu.
