Private Devil’s Throat Experience

From USD: 130

A Private Visit to the Most Impressive Viewpoint of Iguazu Falls

Discover the most spectacular viewpoint of Iguazu Falls on an exclusive private excursion to the legendary Devil’s Throat, locally known as Garganta del Diablo.

Your experience begins with a private pick-up from your hotel in Puerto Iguazu. A professional English-speaking guide and private vehicle will take you comfortably to Iguazu National Park. Once inside the park, you will board the Ecological Jungle Train and travel toward Devil’s Throat Station. From there, you will walk approximately 1.1 km (0.7 miles) along elevated boardwalks over the Upper Iguazu River, surrounded by the lush Atlantic Rainforest. At the end of the walkway, you will reach Devil’s Throat, the largest and most powerful waterfall in the Iguazu Falls system. Its immense volume of water, mist, sound, and frequent rainbows creates one of the most unforgettable natural spectacles in South America.

Throughout the visit, your private guide will provide information about the geology, ecology, history, and biodiversity of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. The private format allows you to enjoy a more flexible pace while respecting the park’s operating hours and train schedules.

After visiting Devil’s Throat, you will return aboard the Ecological Jungle Train and meet your private driver for the comfortable journey back to your hotel.

This experience is ideal for travelers who want to visit the park’s most iconic viewpoint with greater comfort, personalized assistance, and private transportation.

Excellent Way to See Iguazu Falls

This was an excellent way to see Iguazu Falls and feel totally taken care of. Everything went really well from the initial contact to help us plan the trip to the airport transfers, flights, tour guide/driver and hotel. The tour guide/driver was great at flexibly meeting our needs and interests and making sure we got as much out of the 2 days as possible. He was very informed about the area and things to do. We could not have asked for a better way to experience this magnificent wonder from God.

One day tour of Iguazu Falls

"We had a great time visiting Iguazu Falls from the Brazilian side. The one day visit which started from our hotel in Rio de Janeiro in the morning and ended with returning to the same hotel in the night went according to plan without any hitches. Our thanks to Walter who made all the arrangements for the visit.

Great destination, great guide

"Our Iguazu Falls trip was great! A highlight of our time in South America. Jorge was a great guide. We arrived not knowing much about the falls, so we had to rely on Jorge to drive the itinerary which took a little prompting on our part. We did not realize that we would be so far from a city with restaurants, so be prepared to eat at the park lodge (which was pretty good).
