Highlights
After being picked up from your hotel in Foz do Iguaçu, you'll be taken to one of the most impressive engineering feats in the world: the Itaipu Hydroelectric Dam. This shared group tour begins with a guided panoramic bus ride through the complex, where you’ll learn how Itaipu generates power for both Brazil and Paraguay and transformed the course of the Paraná River. Along the way, stop at two incredible viewpoints: the Central Lookout, with a sweeping view of the massive concrete dam, and the Spillway Lookout, where if open, you’ll witness a water release more powerful than Iguaçu Falls. Discover how technology and sustainability coexist in this cross-border project that fuels entire nations. The full experience lasts approximately 1.5 hours, is suitable for all ages, and includes a bilingual guide throughout the tour.

About Foz do Iguaçu
Foz do Iguaçu is the Brazilian gateway to the Iguaçu Falls, a border city where Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay meet at the rivers.
The city stands in the far west of Paraná state, where the Iguaçu River joins the Paraná and the borders of Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay meet. The Iguaçu Falls, a UNESCO World Heritage site, form a broad arc of around 275 separate cascades. From the Brazilian side a walkway gives wide views of the whole curve and ends on a platform close to the Devil's Throat, where the water drops with great noise and mist.
