DAY 1 – January 22, 2027

Disembark the ship in Rio de Janeiro, meet your guide and proceed to the airport for a flight to Iguazu. Eat a hearty breakfast before departing the ship. A boxed lunch will be provided.

Upon arrival in Iguazu, proceed to the National Park and embark on a thrilling Macuco Safari. The adventure begins with a jeep ride through the rainforest, where you'll learn about the local flora and fauna. Then, you'll board a boat for an exciting ride on the Iguaçu River, getting up close to the magnificent Iguaçu Falls and feeling the mist from the powerful waterfalls. This unique experience combines nature, adventure, and breathtaking views, leaving you with unforgettable memories.

Note: The jeep ride can be bumpy, and guests will get wet on the boat ride and the minimum age to ride is 7 years. We recommend bringing a poncho, raincoat or clothes that dry quickly. For safety reasons, the operating staff reserve the final right to deny participation to any guest they deem not physically fit to safely complete the excursion. The boat is accessible however guests with certain medical conditions may be denied boarding.

After this adventure, transfer to your hotel which is located on the Brazilian side of the falls within Brazil’s Iguazu National Park. With its unrivaled location just a short stroll from the sensational waterfalls, you can enjoy exclusive access to the falls in the evening and at dawn when the park is closed to other visitors.

Tonight, enjoy a special dinner at Fabio Tavera's House. The former Head Chef of the Das Cataratas Hotel, Fabio is a talented Brazilian chef who has been traveling all around the country in search of the flavors that bring this vast and exotic land to life. Fabio will guide you through a six-course meal which pays homage to the heritage of natives, Africans and Europeans that forged Brazil’s flavors in 500 years of history and, of course, while the journey goes on, enjoy fine wine pairings with exquisite South American wines. Throughout the night, the chef will closely and interactively explain the origins of the ingredients and tell curiosities about Brazil’s culinary past.

After dinner, return to your hotel.

DAY 2 – January 23, 2027

After breakfast at your hotel, you will begin a walking tour of the Brazilian side of Iguazu National Park. Descend down a trail into a canyon, from where you can enjoy panoramic views of more than 240 falls. You will then board the glass elevator to a platform to enjoy more exquisite views of the cascades.

Along with its sister park in Argentina, the Iguazu National Park forms the most significant remaining rainforest in the southern cone of South America which, along with the waterfalls, UNESCO has declared a National Heritage Site.

After departing the hotel, you will cross the Tancredo Neves Bridge, enjoying its lovely view of the Iguazu Canyon and head towards the Argentine side of Iguazu National Park. At the entrance, a small train will take you on a tour through the park, making two stops: one to the upper circuit and another to the lower circuit.

Follow the walkways to the top of the waterfalls, which provide spectacular views of the falls set among the abundant nature filled with orchids, colorful birds and other wildlife. The highlight of the trip will be visiting the suspended platform so close to the Garganta do Diabo waterfall (Devil’s Throat), that you will feel the force and spray from the largest of the waterfalls in the park.

Note: The walkways and viewing platform can be slippery due to the constant spray, so wearing sturdy, non-slip shoes is recommended.

A stop will be made for lunch at Aqva Restaurant located on the Argentine side of the falls and then after this amazing adventure, return to your hotel in Brazil to freshen up before dinner.

NOTE: When crossing the border between Brazil and Argentina, changing vehicles may be required due to border-crossing regulations. There may be a wait at the border depending on how many others are crossing at the same time.

This unique experience combines nature, adventure, and breathtaking views, leaving you with unforgettable memories.

Note: The jeep ride can be bumpy, and guests will get wet on the boat ride and the minimum age to ride is 7 years. We recommend bringing a poncho, raincoat or clothes that dry quickly. For safety reasons, the operating staff reserve the final right to deny participation to any guest they deem not physically fit to safely complete the excursion. The boat is accessible however guests with certain medical conditions may be denied boarding.

After this adventure, transfer to your hotel which is located on the Brazilian side of the falls within Brazil’s Iguazu National Park. With its unrivaled location just a short stroll from the sensational waterfalls, you can enjoy exclusive access to the falls in the evening and at dawn when the park is closed to other visitors.

Tonight, enjoy a special dinner at Fabio Tavera's House. The former Head Chef of the Das Cataratas Hotel, Fabio is a talented Brazilian chef who has been traveling all around the country in search of the flavors that bring this vast and exotic land to life. Fabio will guide you through a six-course meal which pays homage to the heritage of natives, Africans and Europeans that forged Brazil’s flavors in 500 years of history and, of course, while the journey goes on, enjoy fine wine pairings with exquisite South American wines. Throughout the night, the chef will closely and interactively explain the origins of the ingredients and tell curiosities about Brazil’s culinary past.

After dinner, return to your hotel.

DAY 2 – January 23, 2027

Descend down a trail into a canyon, from where you can enjoy panoramic views of more than 240 falls. You will then board the glass elevator to a platform to enjoy more exquisite views of the cascades.

Along with its sister park in Argentina, the Iguazu National Park forms the most significant remaining rainforest in the southern cone of South America which, along with the waterfalls, UNESCO has declared a National Heritage Site.

After departing the hotel, you will cross the Tancredo Neves Bridge, enjoying its lovely view of the Iguazu Canyon and head towards the Argentine side of Iguazu National Park. At the entrance, a small train will take you on a tour through the park, making two stops: one to the upper circuit and another to the lower circuit.

Follow the walkways to the top of the waterfalls, which provide spectacular views of the falls set among the abundant nature filled with orchids, colorful birds and other wildlife. The highlight of the trip will be visiting the suspended platform so close to the Garganta do Diabo waterfall (Devil’s Throat), that you will feel the force and spray from the largest of the waterfalls in the park.

Note: The walkways and viewing platform can be slippery due to the constant spray, so wearing sturdy, non-slip shoes is recommended.

A stop will be made for lunch at Aqva Restaurant located on the Argentine side of the falls and then after this amazing adventure, return to your hotel in Brazil to freshen up before dinner.

As you reach the upper terminus there are fantastic views in clear weather. Then, to reach the viewing platform and the 120-foot-high statue, you will take an elevator and an escalator.

On the return journey, you’ll pass by the most famous beaches of Rio—Leblon, Ipanema, and the world-renowned Copacabana Beach—pausing along the way for photos.
