If you are in Buenos Aires, you will have daily flights to connect to Iguazu Falls (IGR), taking approx 2 hours.
Time to Capture Both Sides: Plan to stay at least two days in Iguazu to fully experience both the Argentinian and Brazilian sides. If you have only one day, you need at least 12 hours (from 8 am to 8 pm) for a full-day tour.
Check if you need vis to visit Brazil!
