Argentina puts you inside the falls; Brazil supplies the long opposite-bank view that makes their width intelligible.
The day follows the Brazilian park's panoramic walkway, with enough time reserved for immigration in both directions.

Q01Is the Brazil side worth a separate day?
Yes for this journey. Its continuous panorama is fundamentally different from the close Argentine circuits.
Q02Can every rental car cross the border?
No. Written cross-border authorization and insurance must be arranged with the rental company before travel.
Plan with Alex
Plan both sides of Iguazú
Follow Patagonia toward the ice, or take the northern road from vineyard shade to Iguazú's thunder.
Tell me which landscape you keep returning to, and we will build the right Argentina journey around it.
I would travel south for whales, lenga forests and glaciers calving into blue water. I would turn north for Mendoza's vineyards, the white deserts of the Puna and the roar of Iguazú. Both deserve a journey of their own.
