Bird Park & Iguassu Falls Brazilian Side: Private Tour

Two of Brazil's largest attractions in one morning, without the shared-bus crowds

A private tour of the Brazilian side of Iguassu Falls and the Bird Park combines two major stops in a single morning with hotel pickup, a dedicated guide, and air-conditioned transport. The Bird Park holds over 1,100 animals across 140 species, with half of them rescue birds; Iguassu Falls spans 275 waterfalls. The guide accompanies you throughout, and the tour runs approximately four to five hours depending on traffic and time of day.

The Experience

The guide picks you up at your hotel and drives you first to the Bird Park, where you spend roughly two hours walking through the largest aviary specializing in macaws. The park holds more than 1,100 animals across more than 140 species; about half are rescue birds and 43 percent were born in the park itself. After the Bird Park, the guide takes you to Iguassu National Park on the Brazilian side, where you see the 275 waterfalls that make up the largest set of waterfalls on the planet.

Because this is a private tour, the guide stays with you the entire time instead of dropping you at a gate. The minivan is air-conditioned, which matters during the walking sections at both stops. When the tour ends, the guide returns you to your hotel. The exact timing depends on traffic and what time of day you depart, but the whole experience runs between four and five hours from pickup to drop-off.
