Iguazu Falls

#iguazufalls #argentina #brazil #titantours #southamerica

Iguazú Falls are waterfalls of the Iguazu River on the border of the Argentine province of Misiones and the Brazilian state of Paraná. Together, they make up the largest waterfall system in the world.

That statement says it all really. 
Arriving on the Argentina side, we were met by the guide and started walking along the footpath, stopping at intervals to admire this spectacle. It's hard to explain the sight or sounds or even capture the experience with a camera as the views are so special. We were lucky on this first visit because it was a hot sunny day and we could enjoy a leisurely walk taking in the views.

Having travelled to the Brazilian side, we set off on a much duller day with an overcast sky.
This side was completely different because you see the full extent of the falls rather than different sections as we did on the first day. Expecting rain we had waterproof clothing but we only needed it when we wet out onto the exposed walkway.
At the end of the trail was a small dining area with limited facilities, but fortunately, provided shelter when a sudden heavy thunderstorm arrived. 
After  waiting for the  the rest of the group to arrive at the meeting point, we queued for the lift up to the top floor to meet our coach for the return to our hotel.

Our reason for going on this Titan tour was to visit Machu Picchu which was as previously stated  was awesome, but we both have to say that having seen the falls, they exceeded our expectation and were equally as impressive.
