The hiking tour is nice but the price is ridiculous : R$ 900 for 2 adults and 2 kids. This includes the (forgettable) lunch but does not include the guide you must pay separetely! Despite this extremely high price, the owner apparently can't afford a decent equipment since the bus is falling to pieces. Go the national Park instead!!!

This is a really interesting private venture with beautiful sandstone caves and well-preserved cerrado, the highly endangered local vegetation. It's very well managed and organized, and the full package includes an excellent lunch. Jota, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable and helpful, and we appreciated his patience with our terrible Portuguese. Note that we arrived without an outside guide, since you have to hire one of the local guides on site anyway. An outside guide may only be necessary for transportation to the site, and/or for translation. As others have noted, it is expensive, but we thought considering the professionalism and quality of the services, and the area's natural beauty, it was well worth the visit.

Great place. Good for a tracking.

It's exhausting but lovely!

Awesome place to visit 4 a day. Tour Guide was Deusa

Amazing cave tour, a must for anyone visiting Pantanal and Chapada.

Employees often do not care much about you or are talking in parallel. That's the only apparent and recurrent defect. Despite this, great variety of products and promotions are that worth it, the temptation is great to the point of spending a great deal of money.

Be aware of fake items. Get to know the prices in the city you live or on the Internet before heading to Shopping China. Usually, prices will be the same but you can pay on installment in Brazil and avoid the IOF tax on foreign expenses. Furthermore, exchange your funds into US dollars before shopping. That way you will save more. Do not use your credit card!

good prices to buy in dollar or Brazilian real. Cozy food court and Brazilian foods available. beware of salespeople

Best products in PJC, competitive prices. If you are planning to spend more than $500 I suggest checking the exchange rate before hand and comparing to the exchange places downtown PJC.

It's ok. Was better earlier. Today you enters a 3rd world H&M, whilst earlier you had a proper department store, not only clothing and co.

Touristic stop in Paraguay! Great choice of products and fair prices. The food court has now some new choices of restaurants.

Good place to spend the day with one's family, good selection of imported items.

Wonderful view. Nice Lane.

Nice place for chillout with family..natural view..

Beautiful place, but I saw same people suspicious

A beautiful place in the center of the city, gets crowded in the weekends and holidays

The park is accessible for whole family. There are pool sections for all ages. Slides are ok and fun. Plenty of choices. Not allowed to bring in your own food. But.. There are different restaurants to chose for food. Although, like any other parks, it's pricey. Another negative, if your looking for a peaceful place to spend with your family, not the place. They have music blasting at full volume and not the best lyrics either. It gets annoying since it also limits communication.

Very family place

While visiting Foz do Iguaçu to see the famous waterfalls, I took the opportunity to join a guided tour of the Itaipu Hydroelectric Power Plant — and it far exceeded my expectations. Known as one of the largest hydroelectric plants in the world, Itaipu is impressive not only for its scale but also for its engineering and historical significance. I chose the full guided tour, which lasted about two hours and included access to the main facilities, turbines, control rooms, and inner workings of the dam. The tour was extremely informative, with simultaneous translation into English, making it accessible and engaging for international visitors. It’s a must-do experience for anyone visiting the region — highly recommended.

The Itaipu Especial tour was fantastic! Mr. Ilio was great and shared lots of fun facts along the way. We were a bit lost when we first arrived at the reception, but soon someone showed up and explained how the boarding would work. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The dam is colossal and being able to visit both the exterior and interior was amazing. We definitely recommend it. The only drawback is having fossil fueled vehicles to transport the guests.

An engineering masterpiece! The Itaipú Dam harnesses the power of the Paraná River to supply clean energy to both Paraguay and Brazil. Standing beside it, you feel the force of nature and human innovation working together - the size, the sound, and the scale are breathtaking. Guided tours show the massive turbines, panoramic viewpoints, and fascinating eco-projects. Awesome Facts: 🌍 Jointly run by Paraguay and Brazil. ⚙️ Generates about 14,000 MW, powering most of Paraguay. 🧱 196 m high and 8 km long - one of the world’s largest dams. 💧 Its name “Itaipú” means “singing stone” in Guaraní. 🌿 Has produced more electricity than any other hydro plant on Earth.

A fascinating visit! The panoramic tour at Itaipu Binacional offers stunning views of one of the world’s largest hydroelectric plants. The scale of the dam is impressive, and the tour was well-organized and informative, with interesting facts about its history, binational cooperation, and massive energy production. A must-see if you're in Foz do Iguaçu.

Our visit to Itaipu Dam was phenomenal. We were greeted by friendly staff and shown around the dam. The tour guides were kind enough to talk in English although only myself and my wife didn't speak Portuguese. The tour was wonderful and informative. The busses were clean. The terminals were clean. An awesome tour. This is a must visit during your visit in Foz do Igazu.

Quite an interesting and impressive feat of engineering, certainly worthwhile the visit. Friendly and professional staff, who are more than happy to answer any and all questions. Highly recommended.

Wowow the scale of this! Awesome. Well worth doing the special tour, including the bowels of the hydropower plant. Very well organised and well guided. Recommend!

It's a very peaceful place, the gardens are beautiful and the statues as well. As everything in this city, there were not many information about the place itself. I thought I would find a meditation hall inside the building but there wasn't one.

I visited this Buddhist temple with high hopes, expecting a tranquil and well-tended space for reflection. While the atmosphere still carried a sense of calm, I couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed. The garden, though once clearly beautiful, now seemed somewhat neglected, with signs of abandonment in parts. Many of the statues—central to the experience—were in need of repair, which made the overall impression feel out of harmony with the values often associated with Buddhism: care, mindfulness, and respect for the sacred. I understand that maintaining such places can be challenging, and I deeply respect the cultural and spiritual importance of the site. I simply hope that in time, some restoration and attention will return it to its full potential. The temple still offers a moment of pause, but it could offer so much more with a little more care.

First time visiting a Buddhist temple ever. Quite impressive architecture. No need to cover shoulders and knees here but did it out of respect. Great place for peace and quiet.

A great place to disconnect from your busy life. I'm not religious, but I found the park extremely peaceful and inviting to walk through and appreciate in my own way. There are even some small informational signs in some areas, which taught me lots of interesting facts. However, the signs are unfortunately only in Portuguese!

Great place to reflect and just be silent. Beautiful scenery and lovely statues. There's a view of the river and both bridges. 🌞Go on a sunny day and preferably on the afternoon.

Very beautiful and impressive! Recommend

It’s a unique holy Buddha temple built on green meadow alongside of river separating Brazil & Uruguay. The soft serene music indulge the soul with serenity.

They give you a tour and some history of the large mosque. Shops nearby with sweets and Arabic things to buy.

Beautiful structure however tourists can no longer visit the mosque on account of the pandemic.

This place is nice, you do not need to buy tickets to get in but you can see just around the Mosque.

the “manager” lady which has no scarf on her hair tried to teach me islam and didn’t the let my wife to enter with me to pray because she is a christian. It is a big shame for muslim community. I complain to Allah for who didn’t let my wife to enter to mosque with me. Is this how you make people get interested with islam? Dear imam of the mosque, shame on you too to let these things happen in your mosque.

Great place. Friendly staff.

Beautiful place. If you are a woman, should go with a long skirt or trousers.

Nice mosque l. You have to cover your legs as a woman if you want to enter the mosque. A head cover known as an hijabi if i am not mistaken would be worn for you before you can enter. Its not so interesting because there was nobody to explain anything to you, you basically just go inside to see and take pictures if you are interested. It was part of the city tour I bought

This pin is NOT bus station needed for the bus to foz do iguaçu, it might be a bus stop along the way, I'm not sure, but it's definitely safer to go to terminal urbano as the bus can fill up quickly.

Nice

A beautiful and meaningful place to visit! Parque das Aves is an amazing park, full of exotic birds that have been rescued from poachers and given a safe, natural home. The enclosures are spacious and beautifully designed, allowing visitors to get close to the animals while respecting their wellbeing. Besides the incredible variety of birds, there are also turtles, butterflies, and lush tropical vegetation that make the experience even more special. Everything is well organized and nicely compartmented, creating a peaceful and educational visit. A must-see for anyone who loves nature and wants to support wildlife conservation!

Fantastic sanctuary and breeding center for endangered species. Extremely informative; English translations were available. Loved how much space the birds had; the amount of beautiful trees and plants is so wonderful. Also, there is a bistro and a restaurant in the park.Had a good artisan beer. Very clean bathrooms. I enjoyed my visit tremendously.

We visited Parque das Aves, a beautiful bird sanctuary founded in the 1990s and still run by the same family. The park is made up of several large, natural-style aviaries, allowing you to walk inside and see the birds up close in spacious, forest-like environments. One interesting story we learned: when the first flamingos arrived, there were about 115 of them, but jaguars from the surrounding forest used to enter at night, and only around ten survived. Today, the flamingos live in a protected area that keeps them safe, and the park has taken strong measures to prevent similar incidents. Inside the aviaries, you can see an incredible variety of species, including toucans, macaws, parrots, owls, eagles, butterflies, and even hummingbirds. The macaws and other parrots are especially memorable — extremely social and very loud, constantly “talking” to one another with unique calls. We enjoyed the 1.5 hours we spent here. It’s a peaceful and educational experience, and a wonderful way to appreciate the region’s birdlife up close. Highly recommended if you’re visiting Foz do Iguaçu.

With an hour to kill before we were able to enter the Foz, we strolled across the street to the Parque. It *far* exceeded our expectations. We could easily have spent at least another hour or two there. Beautiful birds and other animals, highly educational, with a conservation and rescue ethic. Great escape from the heat of the sun, and though the number of visitors did make it feel a bit crowded, it's really a well designed and manged park experience.

What a wonderful surprise! Parque das Aves far exceeded our expectations a true paradise for bird lovers and anyone who appreciates nature. The immersive aviaries let you get remarkably close to the birds, the paths are easy to follow, and the entire park is beautifully cared for. After spending the morning at the magnificent Iguaçu Falls, ending the day here was the perfect complement.

Our tour guide suggests 2 hours. We enjoyed it so much that we could easily stay for half a day. The birds are exotic, beautiful and we'll take care of. The flora is unique and colorful. The cafe is spacious with good menu. It is apparent the park staff has taken good care of the park, the bite-size educational signage and many other small things make the visit enjoyable. Don't miss this park when you visit the Iguazu falls park right across the road.

It’s an amazing place with heaps of great info along with birds and reptiles. It takes at least 1.5 hours or more as there is so much to see and experience. We did this at the end of our day trip to Brazil from Argentina and it was yet another highlight!

One of the most natural exhilarating sights. Everything you read is true. Argentina Iguazu Falls is epic. Lots of walking so dress accordingly to keep cool. Take some snacks and a water. Wear sunscreen and hat. You may need bug spray. Make sure your phone and camera are fully charged for all the pictures you will take. Super easy to navigate the trails. You will see tons of wildlife and we took the jungle boat cruise instead of the trail or train. Don't miss this!

Visiting Iguaçu National Park was one of the most powerful experiences of my life. Standing before the waterfalls, I felt completely humbled by their sheer force and beauty. The thunder of the water echoed through the jungle, the mist kissed my face, and rainbows danced in the sunlight. It was impossible not to feel the energy of nature there — wild, breathtaking, and absolutely unforgettable.

We visited the Argentinian side of Iguazú Falls as part of a small group of ten people with a local guide. After a late breakfast at our hotel on the Brazilian side, we left around 7:10 AM. The border crossing was smooth and straightforward — no issues at all — and U.S. citizens on a day trip don’t need to bring an e-visa. We arrived at the Argentinian National Park just in time to catch the train that takes you to different trails and later to the boat area. The trails included the Devil’s Throat and several other breathtaking waterfalls. Seeing the power of 2.5 million cubic meters of water per second plunging into the gorge was absolutely mesmerizing — a humbling reminder of nature’s raw strength. One of the most magical parts of the visit was the butterflies. They were everywhere — bright, colorful, and unafraid. Many of them landed on us and stayed for a while as we walked or rode the train. It felt as if they were accompanying us through the trails, adding a gentle, dreamlike touch to the whole experience. The walkways were well maintained and easy to navigate, even in flip-flops. One thing to note: food inside the park is quite expensive — we paid about US $4.50 for a small coffee and US $13 for a hamburger, and the quality was just average. Bringing your own water is highly recommended. The boat ride was the highlight of the day. It was thrilling and completely safe, though at times it felt hard to breathe as we passed directly under the falls — you get soaked, but it’s unforgettable. Watching the waterfalls from below gave a whole new perspective of their power and beauty. Overall, it was a majestic experience — one of those once-in-a-lifetime sights. I’d strongly recommend the boat adventure on either side of the border, but we were told the Argentinian side offers the better experience, and after visiting, I completely agree.

There's no word, no photo or video to describe this place. It's one of those spectacular mother nature displays that you have to see it to believe it. We bought the 3-day pass online so we can explore every hiking trails. The 3-day pass gave us time to explore without feeling rushed. We practically spent about 6 hours daily at Iguazú National Park (INP). Wear comfortable shoes and definitely bring bug spray or they'll have a buffet on you! It's doable in 2 days, but it would have to be a full 8-hour day. We stopped to admire just about every waterfalls, animals, interesting plants, and rainbow we encountered. Kudos to the INP staff. They kept the park nice and clean, and there were plenty of signage. Most staff spoke good English. Oh, right before approaching the visitor center, there's usually a staff handing out a 10% discount coupon to one of the restaurants. We used the coupon daily for our lunch buffet. We also did the boat ride into the waterfalls. It was a blast! A MUST DO, albeit pricey. Buy your ticket a few days in advance because they were sold out on one of the days we had wanted. We bought our tickets online, and it was a simple process. Yes, you'll be soaked. If you're limited on time, both upper and lower falls are worth the time. Take the train (the fee is already included with INP entrance ticket) to explore both locations. Last, please don't feed the wild animals, no matter how cute they are :-).

Absolutely amazing day out. Lovely scenery and wildlife. Walks to the falls are exzilerating. We also did the crazy falls boat trip, which is a must, bring a change of clothes! 😁

Definitely a place to visit. You need two days minimum. Honestly two days and you will be blissed out on waterfalls. About 4 miles on the Brazilian side, 6-8 on the Argentinian side, and you’ll have seen the falls from every angle. And some interesting flora and fauna!

Wonderful park, well maintained. Friendly people and many things to see and do. Great experience. BUT: 1 star minus for way too high prices for food and drinks

An absolutely breathtaking place both from the Argentinan side and the Brazilian side. The boat ride was exhilarating I'd definitely recommend a visit, you will understand why it's one of the 7 natural wonders of the world., incredible.

Words can't describe... But I'll try anyway. Such incredible views, really really recommend the boat trip if you have time as well. Amazing tour guide for our adventure. The park itself has some beautiful and easy walking trails and of course the epic, stunning, amazing falls

We visited on the Brazilian side on the one day a year they have free entry (unbeknownst to us) so it was mobbed, but it’s definitely worth the visit. Beautiful, natural, and extremely powerful. Plus some interesting wildlife!

First time visiting here. Words, like the many photos and videos I took, don't do it justice. Words like wow, grandeur, incredible, breathtaking, only begin to highlight the vastness and the power displayed. Very organized by the administration, where five bus stops each begin different viewpoints. Frequency of busses are great. Paths and many scenic views are well maintained. Many people are there throughout the hours of operation. Large parking area. Cars also park outside the entrance for free, with an added < 1 km walk. Due to its immensity, prepare to walk! We walked along all the paths that we saw, and spent about 6 hours walking. Even with large crowds, it didn't distract from the beauty or the photo-ability. Parking was about US $11 per day. We bought a two-day pass for about $61. A one-day pass would have cost about $40.

Grand waterfalls not to be missed. Spanning across Argentina, Brazil, Paragray, it has hundreds of falls. The view on the Brazil side is the best but a bit far. The Argentina side is great for getting close to waterfalls and some trails.

Worth a visit. Expect to get wet from the spray if the falls. Bring a poncho or buy one. Buses take you to the falls from the park entrance.

It is one of the wonder of the world I have to say that the nature did his job and deliver a beautiful vision and sound and filling The way to the fall is on metal bridges very Nero and it lead to a small balconies that you can enjoy all of what the nature offering Hope for a change for the future

Had my own private tour guide who spoke English well. $6 USD entry fee in Dec 2024. Spent quite a bit of time in the mine because I am very interested. Really cool to see! But the polished rocks in the gift shop are more costly than back home (2-3 times more expensive) plus you’d have to carry them on your travels. Some fist size amethyst specimens, for example, are over $50 USD. Ouch. No thank you. I don’t have confidence that most of those rocks in the shop come from the mine, other than the amethyst and some citrine. There were some booths along the road I wish I checked out that may sell local specimens at a more reasonable price, but I ran out of time. Buffet lunch with drink for one person at the nice on-site restaurant was $23 USD plus tip. Worth it to check out! (Took away one star for the overblown prices in the shop).

If you’re in the area, this is a nice, interesting place to stop but, because it’s such a short tour, don’t go too far out of your way. My guide spoke English so that helped a lot. The mines were very interesting and the jewelry in the gift shop is VERY beautiful - so be careful!

We visited the Wanda Mines early in the morning, crossing from Brazil into Argentina around 7 AM to avoid the border crowds. The drive took about an hour from the Brazilian side, passing through two small towns before reaching Wanda, a quiet community founded by Polish and German immigrants after World War II. The visit itself was surprisingly interesting. You get to see how the crystals—especially amethyst—are extracted directly from the rock, and mining operations are still active today. At the end, there’s a shop where they sell the stones taken from the mine, with plenty of beautiful pieces to choose from. Overall, it’s a pleasant and educational stop that takes about an hour and a half. If you’re already heading to the Argentinian side for sightseeing, it’s definitely worth the extra time to visit the mines as well.

The mines were OK. It takes about 5 minutes to go through the mines. You are told about the different rocks originating from the mine by the guide. There are food shops and a touristy souvenir shop close by. If you want to get cheaper souvenirs, without the touristy inflation, try going just outside the mines, the locals sometimes have stalls and sell things cheaper.

Interesting place. You can access the mines that are only at floor level. Nice collection of geodes. The are a nice restaurant close.

This was one of the first places we visited on our trip, and it was worth the drive. Gonzalo the tour guide, was incredibly patient with our son and did his best to include him throughout the visit. The gift shop at the end is lovely, if a little bit pricey considering we were at the mines.

We are from the United States and really liked the mine tour. One of the guides speaks English which were were grateful for. He gave us a really nice tour. The shop is very nice with items at all price points. We hired a taxi from Puerto Iguazu who drove us to mine, waited, and returned us to Puerto Iguazu.

It was an incredible and beautiful experience. Just amazing

1.5 kilometres of stunning falls. The dinghy ride by the highly skilled and intrepid pilot Víctor is a thrill too brief.

A series of waterfalls along the uruguay river, really unique

I N C R E I B L E !!!!!

(Translated by Google) A unique place with its waterfall parallel to the shore! The boat ride is a unique sensation, almost like immersing yourself in the river's flow, similar to rafting, but against the current with the water falling beside you. It also has beautiful jungle trails. The park is very well organized, and since both access and boating depend on the river level, you should check their website to see if both services are open before visiting. The dry season, from April to November, is recommended to best appreciate the waterfalls. An additional tip is that the upstream dams open on Mondays, which increases the chances of the park having a good flow rate for navigation. (Original) Lugar único con su caída de agua parelela a la costa!! La navegación es una sensación única, casi de inmersión en el caudal del rio, similar a un rafting, pero contracorriente con el agua cayendo a tu lado. Además, cuenta con senderos selváticos de gran belleza. El parque está muy bien organizado y como tanto el acceso como la navegación dependen del nivel del río, se debe consultar en su página si ambos servicios están habilitados antes de ir hasta el lugar. Se recomienda la época seca, de abril a noviembre para poder apreciar mejor los saltos. Y un tip adicional es que los días lunes abren las represas río arriba y eso da más posibilidades a que el parque este con buen caudal para la nevagacion.

(Translated by Google) 100% recommended and suitable for the whole family, even babies. The waterfalls are breathtaking; the sensation of sailing them was truly exhilarating. The power and beauty of nature. A must-do again! (Original) 100% recomendable y para toda la familia, incluso bebés. Los Saltos son imponentes, la sensación de navegarlos fue muy emocionante. La fuerza y belleza de la naturaleza. Para repetir!!!

(Translated by Google) Magnificent place!! There's an entrance fee, with a discount for seniors, and then a boat ride to see the falls—a MUST-SEE! The Moconá Falls' unique feature is that they are longitudinal, a unique characteristic in the world, formed by a geological fault parallel to the Uruguay River. (Original) Magnífico lugar!! Se cobra una entrada, con descuento para jubilados y después la embarcación para ver los Saltos, un lugar IMPERDIBLE!! La particularidad de los Saltos del Moconá es que son longitudinales, una característica única en el mundo, formadas por una falla geológica paralela al río Uruguay.

Good for walkings, jogging, get the kids to play. Pretty safe. Spend one or two hours. Ball games are not allowed.

Great place for a morning walk anytime I am in Chapeco.

Very beautiful environment, nature with birds singing. But a lot of people running around without a mask.

Nice place to walk, jog and chilling

(Translated by Google) Beautiful monument! It is even more impressive in person. Worthy of the greatness of the West of Santa Catarina. (Original) Belo monumento! Ao vivo é mais imponente. Digno da grandeza do Oeste Catarinense.

(Translated by Google) Statue made in honor of the Pathfinder. Inside the Statue there is an exhibition with several pieces and works of art by the artist (Original) Estátua feita em homenagem ao Desbravador. Dentro da Estátua há uma exposição com diversas peças e obras de arte do artista

(Translated by Google) The Pathfinder Monument: Inaugurated in 1981 by artist Paulo de Siqueira, its creation is associated with the founding of the city. The strikingly imposing figure depicts a gaucho holding an axe in his right hand, symbolizing work, and a laurel wreath in his left, representing victory and local conquests. The Pathfinder Monument is 14 meters high and 5.70 meters wide. (Original) Monumento o Desbravador: Foi inaugurado em 1981 pelo artista Paulo de Siqueira. Sua criação está associada justamente à fundação da cidade. A figura, que chama a atenção pela imponência, é de um gaúcho que na mão direita segura um machado, simboliza o trabalho e, na mão esquerda, um louro, que reflete a vitória e as conquista locais. O Desbravador possui 14 metros de altura e 5,70 metros de largura.

(Translated by Google) For me, the monument O Desbravador in Chapecó is, without a doubt, a strong symbol of the city and the region. It represents the history of the immigrants who came to the west of Santa Catarina and faced many difficulties to build what Chapecó is today. The image of the man with the axe and the Bible clearly conveys the idea of ​​strength, faith and hard work — values ​​that are still part of the local culture. But, at the same time, I think the work has a controversial side. It focuses only on the figure of the "white pioneer" and completely ignores the indigenous peoples who already lived here long before the arrival of the colonizers. This bothers me a little, because it seems that only part of the story is being told — and the indigenous part, which is also super important, ends up being erased. So, I think O Desbravador has its value as a historical and cultural symbol, but it should also open space for a broader reflection on the history of Chapecó, including all the peoples who are part of it. (Original) Pra mim, o monumento O Desbravador em Chapecó é, sem dúvida, um símbolo forte da cidade e da região. Ele representa a história dos imigrantes que vieram pro oeste de Santa Catarina e enfrentaram muitas dificuldades pra construir o que Chapecó é hoje. A imagem do homem com o machado e a Bíblia mostra bem a ideia de força, fé e trabalho duro — valores que ainda fazem parte da cultura local. Mas, ao mesmo tempo, acho que a obra tem um lado controverso. Ela foca só na figura do "desbravador branco", e ignora completamente os povos indígenas que já viviam aqui muito antes da chegada dos colonizadores. Isso me incomoda um pouco, porque parece que só uma parte da história está sendo contada — e a parte indígena, que também é super importante, acaba apagada. Então, acho que O Desbravador tem seu valor como símbolo histórico e cultural, mas também deveria abrir espaço pra uma reflexão mais ampla sobre a história de Chapecó, incluindo todos os povos que fazem parte dela.

Despite of the terrible and awful roads conditions it's really worth the visit. The place is very educational and it includes 3 main events. 1st the vehicle ride thru the mine, 2nd the Museum with amazing stones collection, 3rd the self guided tour thru a "minery" (mine+wine) with wine tasting. And yes, there is also a beautiful gift shopping. If this post helped you please give us a like 🤗 Cheers!

Interesting place, showcasing lots of different gemstones, from Brasil and from other places, including a meteorite. Underground brewery, restaurant and gemstone shop. Nice !

beautiful place, huge collection of amethyst, quad-bikes are available for fun activities at reasonable price..

It's kinda cool, it's a mix of everything the city has to offer in one place. I guess that the one on a cave next to a hotel is better than this. But here there's a museum too.

More than Museum, chocolat store, Mina Beer, gems and stones, cheesse, wine....all inside a mine.

Its really something, people are very very lucky to have a place like that. There are many many tipes of rocks, yhe price is cheep, and the view is amazing!

An interesting historical introduction to the beautiful city of Itá.

Luv it!!!! Amazing place for chilling and enjoy the view!!!

It was amazing... without Google map and GPS it was not possible to touch the destination

Very nice place. Calm and safe for families. Good structure. Please, it's not a resort. It a beautiful city with a thermal park. I liked.

Indoor and outdoor thermal water pools to enjoy and relax with family and friends. This place used to be better in terms of the thermal water "quality", but overall it is one of the best infrastructures you will find in the region for thermal pools.

Pretty awesome hot hot spring pools. Lots of options. The restaurants have so many flies, which is disgusting.

Beautiful church with amazing red walls in the outside and a delicate interior ornamentation. Full of history. A peaceful environment for meditation.

Decided to stay for one night with a group of 5. Positives: Good location and broad variety pf animals kids can see. Breakfast is good also.

I had to stop to relaxed before heading to Porto Alegre 😁 decided to stay at the Parque das tuias🙂very good costumer service 😁I have managed to get chimarrão 👍I do strongly advise to stay in this lovely hotel 🏨 the view is amazing 😉 very good treat for me .

It's a stop with food, wc, hot water to "Chimarrão" a cultural South Brazilian hot drink. There is a huge store with stones wood signs, cuias and alot of other things.

The shop has stuff (mostly food) that's a little over priced. Totally worth it if you are a wood work lover

Good place to visit with the family, but the people who works on the restaurant aren't really prepared to attend the visitants.

A place with good food and polite staff. Good location in a big space.

A good place to eat and rest. Amazing wood sculptures all around and dinosaurs.

Amazing place to visit, both underneath and on the top. The architecture and execution project are both from the brazil army You can walk on the railway and have great scenery views

Be aware that there is quite a few kilometers of unpaved road to get here! Certainly a stunning view from the viaduct!

Amazing view. Dangerous place. Trains still use the bridge and this area is crowded with tourists. Be careful and enjoy.

Beautiful and historic place

Showwww

Incredible views and beautiful nature! There are great hikes and the canyons are worthwhile seeing from the top and the bottom. Rain can close the hikes through the streams. There is dirt road access to the park entrance at the top that is shorter, or a longer non dirt road route. After the entrance there is a little bit of dirt road to the parking. Once parked, the hikes are amazing!! Loved my time here!

If you have the opportunity to see the canion, GO! I took a ton of pictures, and I don't think any of those shots does justice. I had my 20lb son strapped to my chest for this hike. I suggest being in good health if you plan to reach to the top. I may not try hiking that for another 10 years when my son can walk himself up that thing. At the top is a view like no other.

Wonderful! A must visit place when you go to Gramado or Canela. You can go through different trails but the Mirante Trail is the most impressive. Beautiful canions and nature.

Super beautiful place, there is a trail to arrive there, but worth every step, once you get there you feel like in the top of the world

The nature around is just stunning. Best rating for this. We came during the week so it wasn't crowded. But there are other things not working, we cannot give 5 stars. It's serious... Some things you need to know before you come to Cânion Fortaleza, as well as Itaimbrezinho: - make sure you can handle rough roads as a driver. Some parts are still in progress, some are just crazy roads. - there is no official information in English on the website right now. Translate with translator and hope it did its job well. - if you start from Porto Alegre: I recommend to come here by car. There is literally no good option to come here with public transport. Maybe rent one, which can handle rough terrain... - as a foreigner it's not possible to get a license for a drone rn. You cannot register on ANAC without CPF. Just Brazilian citizens have one. A problem that needs to be solved (you can't book a bus online without a cpf as well... How to travel then?) Maybe national offices could at least communicate the local registrations for drones international? Less annoying work for everyone. - you want to do the left way at the waterfall? There is no sign where the trail continues, you have to walk at the guideline which normally marks borders, we asked later, after giving up finding a objectively good path. You're supposed crossing the river close to the edge of the waterfall (you maybe get wet, but bathing is forbidden, lol). That's not a trail, that's adventure without good information, man. You cannot make good decisions for yourself with this. Big saftey issue. Please, take it serious! That's not okay! The company which is responsible for the park at the moment needs to work on several things. - providing more information in general PROACTIVE - if maintaining some trails due to weather conditions etc. isn't possible, you MUST provide these information to all visitors when arriving. With well placed signs etc. Depends on you, but it MUST work. The barely placed wooden planks you put on muddy and wet spots on the trail once are not enough to pass the mud. Visitors are paying a lot of money for the entrance to park infrastructure. So do your work. We were there during the week, I've seen at least 10 people standing idle for a long time, just staring at their mobile phones, not making any attempt to help. We unfortunately don't speak Portuguese, but as a national park maintaining company, working with tourists, you have to give information in English as well. It's international standard, welcome to the 21th century. Without our Portuguese speaking friend translating for us, this trip would have ended in a disaster. PLEASE train your employees. - don't blame the people if they are criticizing valid points. Be professional like estimated and give valid arguments, not your own opinion. Opinion is for private life, not for work. Thanks for reading this review and noticing.

Be aware of the entrance charge, which can be pricey if you are planning to pay for the whole family. I won't post the fee here because prices go up pretty often in Brazil. The views are stunning as long as it's not cloudy or rainy. Check the weather forecast before booking any tours!

Incredible energetic place! Was here where I had faced the most strong wind that I had ever seen. Perfect views! Miss me words to explain how magic was my visit to this place. I truly recommend the visit 👍🏼. P. S. : make sure to bring with you water and some snacks.
