The time needed to explore each side of Iguazu Falls depends on the trails and activities you choose. On the Argentine side, visitors typically spend 6 to 8 hours, as this side offers a more immersive experience with multiple trails (Upper, Lower, and Devil’s Throat) that bring you up close to the waterfalls. The ecological train ride helps you get around the park and save time, but some trails may require a bit of walking to reach the best viewpoints. You can also take a boat tour that gets you right under the falls, which lasts about 1.5 hours, offering an adrenaline-filled adventure. The Argentine side is also known for its rich wildlife, and visitors often spot coatis, butterflies, toucans, and other animals. On the Brazilian side, the visit is usually shorter, around 2 to 4 hours, since there is a single main trail that provides spectacular panoramic views of the falls.

The walk to the Devil’s Throat viewpoint is the highlight, where you stand close to the edge and feel the immense power of the waterfall. The Brazilian side offers more open spaces, making it ideal for wider photographs of the falls. The helicopter tour, available only on the Brazilian side, offers an unforgettable aerial view of the falls but takes around 10-15 minutes. If you want to fully enjoy both sides, it is recommended to allocate two full days, one for each country. If time is limited, the Argentine side offers a more in-depth experience, with trails that provide intimate encounters with nature, while the Brazilian side gives a breathtaking overview in a shorter visit.
