The entrance in the park of iguazu falls in Brazil is approximately 8 euros and 30 pesos (about 10 euros)in argentina with dicount for owners of an international student card . You can make your ticket mark to have a 50% dicount the second day.

In Brazil it's possible to walk along the western bank that offers a general viewpoint of the site. It's possible to get close of the end of the "devil throat".

The most impressive Part of the cascades of Iguazu is situated in Argentina. Three circuits allow you to discover them. The lower circuit is connected to the island "san Martin" by boat (the price of the shuttle is included in the ticket). It is also possible to discover the lower part of the falls. The higher circuit gives us a view point of the water falling .

The "devil throat"circuit is indeed the most exciting Walk. It's more than one kilometer long and drives us along the river and to the closest point of the "throat" . Thousands of cubic meter of water run in here in an awfull noise. It is the masterpiece of the visit. The metal gateway was destroyed in 1999 by a flooding and the wreck of the old path is visible at the end of the path.

The "sandero verde" (that means green path) is a small paved way which drives visitors to the first steps of their visit. It is easy, short, refreshing and does not have anything difficult. Two other paths ,a little more difficult, are located at the south of the site: the "sandero Macuco" and the "sandero Yacaratia" . I recommend them for those who have a little more time.

Caution: The access to the island san Martin use to be prohibited during winter.
