City Overview
If you have seen the motion picture, The Mission, then the Iguazu Falls or Cataratas del Iguazu in Spanish, may seem all too familiar to you. This spectacular back drop, named after the Guarani word for "great water", provided the location for the movie.
The Iguazu Falls, taller and wider than Niagara Falls, are surrounded by a dense tropical forest. From the squawking parakeets to monkeys swinging in the trees, the area is filled with life.
Daily Budget
The magnificent scenery alone makes this Argentinean town worth the visit. For as little as $24 dollars, you can stay in budget accommodation, eat at the local restaurants and enjoy the Iguazu Falls activities.
