The logic of this itinerary
Three days let you see both sides of the Falls without squeezing your schedule.
- Day 1: arrival and, in the late afternoon, the Triple Frontier Landmark to get a sense of the geography.
- Day 2: the Brazilian side of the Falls and Parque das Aves.
- Day 3: a full day on the Argentine side. Leave early because of the line at the bridge.
Why Brazil first? The panoramic view helps you grasp the scale of the falls; the next day, the Argentine walkways show the cascades up close.
Adjustments
- No documents to cross the border: swap day 3 for Itaipu.
- With kids: bring snacks and plan breaks on the Argentine day, with documents and authorization for minors in order.
- Without a car: for the Argentine day, arrange transport there and back in advance, including the return time.
