Iguazu Falls Tour in Argentina Side

Price from: 34 USD

Tour to Iguazu Falls National Park (Argentina Side)

The excursion to the Argentinean side of the Iguazu Falls is one of the main activities to do during your visit to the destination. Check out the best options!

Can you do this experience on a rainy day?

Absolutely! The Iguazu Falls area has the peculiarity of having strong rains that end quickly due to its subtropical climate. That means you can take shelter during your visit to the park under a roof and even continue exploring, as it is very common to end up wet from the mist of the waterfalls on this visit (not to mention if you do the Gran Aventura/Great Adventure boat tour, there you end up completely soaked), and therefore it’s easy to find raincoats to protect against the rain.
