Located on the border between Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay, the majestic Iguaçu Falls are over 80 metres high and 2,700 metres wide, making them one of the most spectacular waterfalls in the world. The surrounding subtropical rainforest is also teeming with wildlife and exotic plants including an impressive array of birds such as colourful parrots and toucans, thousands of butterflies and mammals such as tapirs and howler monkeys. The Brazilian side of the Falls boasts exceptional panoramic views, while the Argentinean side allows for more up, close and personal viewpoints.
