Companhias aéreas que voam para o aeroporto de Puerto Iguazú: Aerolíneas Argentinas, FlyBondi, JetSmart, Andes Airlines. As companhias de baixo custo (low-cost), como FlyBondi e JetSmart, têm voos diários para Puerto Iguazú, mas geralmente partem e chegam no meio do dia. Isso torna mais difícil visitar as cataratas do Iguaçu em um único dia. No entanto, é possível visitar as Cataratas do Iguaçu em um dia. Por exemplo, se o seu foco for mais no sul da Argentina (Patagônia), mas você não quiser perder as cataratas, um passeio de um dia para o Iguaçu é perfeito.

Pegar o ônibus de Buenos Aires para o Iguaçu levará cerca de 18 horas. Os ônibus partem a todo momento do dia; verifique o horário de chegada no Iguaçu. Pegar um ônibus que parte à noite é a nossa preferência. Você pode dormir durante a noite e chegar ao meio-dia no Iguaçu.
Eu sugiro escolher um assento do tipo “cama”. Estes assentos podem reclinar até 180 graus, mas depende da operadora do ônibus. Verifique isso no site deles.

Hey Glenn,
This is such an amazing website that you have here for all the info on BA! We are a family of 4 wanted to fly out from BA to Iguazo falls and it looks everywhere i read, they recommend doing the Argentinian side only and skip the brazilian side. But we want that to be our entry point into Brazil. Spend a day in the falls and then fly out to the Amazon from there. my question is about the luggage. when we fly from BA, we can check into a hotel for a night but after we check out, is there any idea to store the luggage near the falls so that we can visit the falls and then head straight to the brazil border after collecting the luggage? OR are there hotels close to the falls where we can go back and pick up the luggage and then get the bus to cross the border?
thanks much
Hi Glenn,
Our friends Tom & Linda from NYC directed us your way. They spent 4 weeks there during COVID.
My wife and I heading to BA for 4 weeks from Toronto starting there January 19th. We look forward to reading your work and will have plenty to ask.
Has the Tourist Card taken off yet? Our plan is to bring USD and converting in BA.
Bill
Hi Bill, in many cases yes, but in other not. But as I wrote in the post. For some activities Argentine companies are charging in USD. Have a nice trip to BA!
G’day Glenn – wife and I are visiting from Australia early 2024. Want to visit Iguazu Falls from BA, and have set aside a few days. Fly BA – IGR day one …. spend day 2 and 3 in Iguazu and fly back to BA Day 4. Quite capable of booking flights and accommodation ourselves but need guidance on actually seeing the falls. Some advice appreciated … Best way to see both the Brazilian and Argentine side of the falls?? By water / land or both ? Read that its best not to leave Argentina … viz don’t go into Brazil. Secondly booking tours … Need to do this well in advance or can we book on arrival ??? Thirdly recommendations for reputable and reliable tour operators ? Anything else we should consider doing / seeing whilst in Iguazu ? Thanks – Kevin and Anne
Hi Kevin, great plans! Iguazu will be hot and with high humidity. I would suggest booking a hotel with a pool :-D. For me the Argentine side is beautiful. You can book a boat trip too. It’s not too long but a very nice experience to see the waterfalls from that point. On the Argentine side there are many walking paths and in good condition. It took me around 4-5 hours to visit the complete park. With a guide is nicer because you will receive interesting information. You can contact me by mail and I can arrange for you a group or private tour guide. Begin of the year will be high season. I suggest booking in advance. Beside the waterfalls there is the 3-country meeting point. 🙂
Thanks for your reply Glenn – don’t have your email address .. can you send me an email kmatthews0604@gmail.com with that info, and I will communicate directly as you have suggested
Hi Glen, We are 4 adults in their 70s staying in an AirBnb in Buenos Aires from Jan. 15-24. We would like to go to visit Iguazu Falls for 3 days. There are alot of organized tours. Trying to plan on our own but it seems complicated to organized and coordinate. Your thoughts please. Much obliged. Thank you, Madeleine
Hi Madeleine, mostly you depart on day one. All depends what time the flight arrives in IGU. If in the morning, then you can visit the Argentina side. The day afterward you can visit the Brazilian side and the last day you fly back.
Hey Glenn quick question i will be flying into Buenos Aires next week for a few days then flying to iguazu falls for a few days do i need a covid test to be able to board the flight for the falls or can i just fly around within Argentina with out one. Thank you so much for the help
Hi Jessica, the province of Missiones doesn’t ask for a new covid test.
Hi Glen. Is the land border between Argentina and Brazil in Iguazu scheduled to reopen for tourists in November with other borders?
Hi Bryan, the border to enter or leave Argentina will reopen. The border control of Brasil has its own rules. But I think they are open too.
Hi Glenn. My wife and I are joining a tour that starts in Buenos Aires on Nov 20. Our flight arrives in Santiago on Nov 18. That same day we need to connect to a flight to Buenos Aires without leaving the airport or claiming our bags. Both Latam and Aerolineas Argentinas have baggage interline agreements with United, the carrier we arrive on. I have spoken with Latam and I cannot get an understandable explanation as to whether they have flights to BA or not and if not now will they resume Nov 1 when Argentina reopens their borders. Flights do show up in various schedules but they are not bookable. Can you please offer some helpful insight into this? Thank you, John Clark
