In terms of nature, this was probably the best experience of my life! The walkway around the Devil’s Throat really lets you appreciate its power and noise. Prepare to get wet from the spray! Both the upper and lower trails are very well maintained and easy to complete with average fitness and mobility. If you only have time to complete one, then I’d recommend the lower trail. En route you’ll also see monkeys, amazing birds, and possibly a jaguar (if you’re very, very lucky). There are plenty of places for food & drink, plus toilets. The whole experience is very well managed.
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

This is a bucket list experience. Absolutely unreal and breathtaking. Absolutely worth the visit. Amazing views of the falls along an easy path that even young kids can handle easily. The off-season visit (July) was not busy at all.
One of the natural wonders of the world! O visited the Argentina’s side and walk from the entry to the waterfalls. Keep your eyes open and you will see birds, fish and other animals; great memories!!
Amazing scenery. Located in the national park. You need entry tickets that includes the bus service. You can't remove the bus service portion because most of the cars are not allowed in the park. Only tourist busses with Brazil plates can enter and they are given GPS units to control the speed and their movements. If you are coming from Argentina, you will need your passport, no visa required if you are visiting for a day only.

So amazing. Over 200 waterfalls. You can hike along a trail and look at so many different waterfalls. Worth the entry price. We did the brazil side and were super satisfied with the whole experience.
Definitely one of the world's wonders. It's drop dead gorgeous and worth fighting the unruly crowds, but I do suggest going early morning weekday. I showed up around 11 on a Saturday and it was a zoo. Devil's Throat, the the upper trail is the way to do it. Lots of coati and butterflies along the trails and food spots.
Magnificent. Got all wet even will prepared with rain coat and cell phone cover. It was fun. I joined a tour with bus to go in and take us back, most efficient in time.
Spectacular experience, one of the most beautiful natural places I've visited. I recommend doing the superior circuit first, then going in the boat and finishing the day with Gargantua del Diablo. Early June has way less crowds and heat, which makes it a more enjoyable experience.
