Puerto Iguazú is the Argentine town next to Foz do Iguaçu. It is close to the entrance of Iguazú National Park and is the gateway to the Argentine side of the Falls.
What usually makes the itinerary
- Hito Tres Fronteras: the Argentine landmark of the Triple Frontier, overlooking the meeting of the Iguaçu and Paraná rivers, facing Brazil and Paraguay. It complements the Triple Frontier Landmark on the Brazilian side.
- Dinner on the Argentine side: pairs well with the return from the Argentine Falls, if the group still has energy.
- A stroll downtown: a smaller town than Foz, easy to get around.
Logistics
- The trip there and back goes over the Tancredo Neves Bridge and through immigration. At night and on public holidays, the line on the way back can be long.
- Payments are in Argentine pesos; check payment methods and the exchange rate before you spend.
- A valid document for everyone, including children. See the border guide.
