The big adventure begins at the Macuco Safari entrance gates, located at kilometer 25 of the
Cataratas Highway inside the Iguassu National Park, with embarkation in open jeep-towed
wagons that permit an unobstructed view of the scenery along the trail. During the stretch of
three kilometers through the jungle, multi-lingual guides point out examples of the flora and
fauna of the Park.
* 
Orchids, palm trees, bromeliads, centenaria trees, as well as wild animals that occasionally cross
the trail are pointed out by the guides.
The hike - The second stage, a stretch of 600 meters (optional), is a hike on a trail that leads to a
waterfall baptized "Macuco Falls". The waterfall - perfect for a refreshing dip on days of intense
heat - spills down from a height of approximately 20 meters. Access is via a stairway carved into
the ancient rock. The last stop is the Macuco Safari docks on the Brazilian side of the Iguassu
River.

In the water, inflatable bi-motor boats, constructed to withstand the rigors of the excursion, are
secure and efficient vessels. Before embarkation, passengers receive life-vests and plastic
containers in which to protect photographic and filming equipment. The boat travels up-river
passing the canyon facing the rapids at a speed that permits the appreciation of the scenery.
Rocks, animals and a lot of greenery completes the scenery until the base of the Falls is reached,
next to the "great horseshoe" know as the "Devil's Throat".
Waterfall shower - Rainbows, blue sky, mist and water in profusion, punctuate the spectacle that
has as its high-point the area of the Falls baptized "The Three Musketeers". There the captain
maneuvers the boat in order to get close enough to provide the passengers with a quick and
refreshing shower. Since at the end of the fun everyone normally ends-up wet, the passengers
more sensitive to cold should not dispense with extra clothes to use after the boat excursion.
Another important detail: use comfortable shoes and clothes.

The adventure begins with embarkation from Porto Meira (Iguassu River, Iguassu
Falls, Brazil) in a 40-passenger capacity yacht endowed with a cabin, a covered deck,
a sun deck and an American bar. From Porto Meira the boat navigates a section of the
Iguassu River passing under the Tancredo Neves Bridge (Brazil - Argentina) and in
front of the Landmark of the Tree Frontiers, where an excellent view of The Americas
Space can be had. The Americas Space is a project of the government of the State of
Parana and was planned as a center for large- and medium-sized events.

The structure, built in the contemporary style at the exact spot where the Iguassu
and Parana Rivers meet, provides another post-card view of the region.

Going down the branch of the Parana River that is predominated by the famous
"Dourado" fish, also know as the "Tiger of the Parana", the passenger can enjoy the
beautiful riverside scenery of rocks and vegetation typical of the region while the crew
serves Brazilian cocktails made from local fruits - a success among foreigners,
generally lovers of a good "caipirinha".
