Itinerary
Our tour begins by departing from the passengers` hotels to go to the Tourist Assistance Center to buy the entrance tickets to the park. (You might need a visa to cross the Brazilian border if you are staying in Argentina).
When we arrive at the Visitor Center, we’ll kick off the trip around the park by leading you to one of the tour cars.
We’ll then drive to the main paths which stretch over 1,200m of the park and sit above the Iguazu river. From here, you’ll get a panoramic view of the Argentine side of the falls: the perfect spot to take some photos.
Continuing along this route, you’ll get to see the Cañón del Río Iguazú, Salto Rivadavia, Tres Mosqueteros and many others. Towards the end of the route, you’ll also see the lower part of the river and the impressive Garganta del Diablo (Devil’s Gorge). The walkway ends beside Salto Floriano, from where you can take either a number of stairs or an elevator straight down to the car park or up to shops and restaurants.
The Bird Park is close to the Iguaçu National Park, which facilitates the movement and reduces the transportation time. Upon arriving there, we will travel through several trails inside the park to observe and interact with the local nature. The Bird Park is a unique place, counting more than 200 animal species, many rescued from illegal traffic. The main idea is to make a Sanctuary for engendered species. Hosting the biggest Araras (Macaws) Sanctuary in South America, the Bird Park offers safe spaces for visitors to enter and observe the birds from very close and in liberty. Living in wide Vivarium, the birds can fly free and visitors can enter the vivarium without bothering the animals. Also hosting some anacondas, boas, crocodiles, Titi monkeys and special butterflies, the park makes the visitor's delights and awakens it curiosity. Walk along the paths, entering vivariums and temples, learning more about each and every species living in the Sanctuary.

Traveler reviews
Company Scam
Unfortunately they wouldn’t let me go on the trip as in their eyes I didn’t have a Visa to enter Brasil. However this wasn’t true as another company stated this was not required since it was a day trip. I then asked for a refund which they refused. It has been over a month and no response. Avoid this company as they have scammed me. If you don’t provide a service how can you not provide a refund.
Read the Fine Print
It’s worth repeating: Read the Fine Print. This tour does NOT include admission to Iguazu National Park nor Parque des Aves (Bird Park). In fact, none of the three tours to the Brazilian side include park/parque admission. The ticket pays for transportation and a multilingual guide. He/she is very important in gathering passports and visas and walking them through passport control. Viator said we had to be at meeting point at 7 am. Wrong! The local operator (the actual provider) wanted us present at 7:45 am. That’s a big difference. Unlike the walkable Argentinian side, the Brazilian side confines guests to a bus for long periods of time due to passport control both coming and going. Not recommended during high season.
Great trip and bird park is worth it!
Brilliant trip with some waiting at the border. Guide was excellent. Driver on way back (guide no longer with us) drove like a maniac after the Argentinian border.
A great day at Iguazu & Bird’s Park
A truly unforgettable experience that was very well organized and orchestrated. The whole experience just takes your breath away.
Too little time at the waterfalls
Subcontracted to Sol Iguazu tour operator. Good: Nice bus and guide Fast processing at border Visited 2 parks Bad: Early pickup, but the bus waited 15min in the street for another group of passengers and guide to arrive. Then spent another 45min detour to take us to a souvenir shop. Very rushed thru the waterfall park, skipping a viewpoint, so other passengers can catch their flight. Recommend looking at other tour operators that do not waste your time at a souvenir store before going to the wayerfalls.
