You can do it budget or luxury; the Falls ticket and lodging weigh the most
The cost of a trip to Foz do Iguaçu varies a lot depending on your style. The main expenses are lodging, the attraction tickets (the Falls on both sides are the most expensive) and food. You can save by using public transport, doing the free attractions and taking advantage of the favorable exchange rate in Paraguay and Argentina.
Where the money goes:
- Lodging — from hostel to resort; the biggest part of the budget
- Tickets — the Falls (BR and AR) are the most expensive; Itaipu and Parque das Aves are affordable
- Food — varies a lot; eating in Paraguay or Argentina can stretch your money with the exchange rate
- Transport — the bus is much cheaper than a taxi
To save money:
- Use public transport (single fare) and the international buses
- Take advantage of the free attractions (Marco das Três Fronteiras for residents, temples, viewpoints)
- Follow the exchange rate: eat and shop on the more favorable side
Since prices change, check the updated values in each attraction's guide before finalizing your budget.
