Today we finally reached somewhere we have been trying to get to for over 20 years, Iguazu Falls. We thought we would do it in style so we decided to take 3 days and stay at the falls at the Gran Melia Iguazu.
The hotel is all about the location and you pay the price. The furniture is dated and the rooms are small but you are next to the falls, and that is why you are here. It was raining when we arrived so we went to the Brazilian side the following day.
We have a UK passport so don't need a visa to enter Brazil, check with your local office but US citizens do need a visa which can slow the whole process up. It also makes it practically impossible to visit both sides in one day. You have to line up at immigration to leave Argentina and to enter Brazil you have to leave the vehicle to be stamped in.
The Brazil side consists of one route and has an elevator at the end next to the Devils throat. The rest is a walkway running opposite the falls which gives you spectacular view.
The Argentinian side has 3 routes (upper, lower and train to the Devils Throat). All have spectacular views from different angles.
Which should you do, well both of course. We preferred the Brazilian side but everybody had their own opinion. You are in a National Park so plenty of wildlife to see including Monkeys, Coati and Toucans.
We also visited Tres Fronteras where you can see Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay in one view.
