Best Time of Year for Iguazu Falls

What month if the best to view Iguazu Falls. We are considering January 31, 2012, or February 26, 2012. The Falls will be the highlight of this trip for us. Is it best during the rainy season or several weeks later?

  • Not sure exactly when the "rainy season" is, but we did this trip in mid-Jan. 2010, (a self-booked tour) & had fabulous weather. We were actually in Iguazu around the 20th of Jan. We did get caught in a downpour when touring the Brazil side but it was short (& we were drenched). And of course, nothing will keep you dry if you go under the Falls. A "must-do"! Iguazu was the absolute favorite part of our trip! We want to go back again!! Our close second favorite part of the trip was the Andes Lake Crossing. Again, we were very fortunate to have wonderful weather. Scenery was fantastic! Bariloche was a lot of fun. We didn't stay at Llao Llao, but it is a featured "drive-by" on all tours there. Very exclusive & lovely. Outside of the town, though, so be sure to spend some time in Bariloche itself - very interesting "Swiss Alps" city in the Andes.

    Have a good time! Hope you are as fortunate with weather as we were.
