Itaipu Dam Sightseeing Tour

Between 7:40 and 9 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Foz do Iguaçu. We'll then set off for the Itaipu Hydroelectric Dam, which belongs to both Paraguay and Brazil, and start our fascinating sightseeing tour.

When we arrive, we'll watch a 10-minute video at the visitor's centre to learn about the development of this colossal construction. Next, we'll board a double-decker bus with an open-air upper floor for our tour of the Itaipu Dam. During the 1-hour route, we'll make up to 3 stops so you can take pictures.

We'll stop at the Spillway viewpoint, where you'll be able to admire the endless flow of the dam's water. We'll continue until we reach Paraguay through a 640-foot (196-metre) high wall while enjoying views of the dense subtropical forest surrounding Itaipu. 

It'll then be time to bid farewell to one of the world's greatest engineering feats and drop you back at your hotel in Foz do Iguaçu at 11:40 am.
