From USD: 299

A sunrise naturalist experience inside Iguazu National Park.

La Selva Invisible is a semi-private naturalist experience designed for travelers looking to discover a different side of Iguazu National Park.

The experience begins before sunrise, when the Atlantic Rainforest enters one of the most biologically active moments of the day. Accompanied by a bilingual Naturalist Interpreter Guide, participants explore the forest slowly, paying attention to sounds, tracks, plants, birds, butterflies, fungi, insects and the many relationships that sustain this highly biodiverse ecosystem.

Rather than focusing on reaching a specific attraction or finding particular species, the experience is based on learning how to observe and interpret the rainforest as it presents itself that morning.

Groups are limited to a maximum of 10 participants, allowing for a quieter pace and closer interaction with the guide.

Your experience begins early in the morning with pick-up from your accommodation at approximately 5:30 AM. From there, you will travel toward Iguazu National Park, arriving around 6:00 AM, while the rainforest is beginning to wake up.

Accompanied by a bilingual Naturalist Interpreter Guide, you will enter one of the authorized areas used for this nature experience. Depending on wildlife activity, weather conditions and the guide’s professional assessment, the excursion may take place along National Route 101, the access toward the former Ñandú Camping area or the Macuco Trail.

The walk takes place at a relaxed pace with frequent interpretive stops. Instead of simply covering distance, you will be encouraged to observe details that often go unnoticed: bird calls, animal tracks, epiphytic plants, insects, fungi, butterflies, microhabitats and the ecological connections between them.

Interpretation may include subjects such as botany, ecology, birdwatching, natural processes and biocultural heritage. Quiet observation, sensory exercises and moments of contemplation may also form part of the experience.

The walking distance is approximately 6 to 7 kilometers, with a low-to-moderate difficulty level. After the experience, you will be transferred back to your accommodation.

The estimated total duration is approximately 4 hours and 30 minutes, including transfers and the interpretive walk.

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.
