Rain won't ruin your trip — fuller Falls and plenty to do indoors
Caught in the rain in Foz? The Falls get even mightier and there's plenty to do under cover.
Quick answer: Rain in Foz do Iguaçu won't ruin your trip: the Falls get fuller and full of rainbows, and almost everything stays open. For indoors, head to the Itaipu Tourist Complex, the theme parks and museums, the malls and Duty Free, or enjoy the food. Bring a rain poncho — umbrellas get in the way on the walkways.
Are the Falls worth it in the rain?
Yes. With more water they're even more impressive and rainbows appear strongly. Bring a poncho (sold at the entrance), not an umbrella.
Indoor options
- Itaipu: guided tours with indoor sections.
- Theme parks and museums in Foz.
- Malls on both sides and the Duty Free in Puerto Iguazú.
- Food: the cuisine of all three countries.
Check each attraction's hours before going.
