Audio Guide of Macuco Safari

Macuco Safari is open daily from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. It is located about 25 km from downtown Foz do Iguaçu; you can get there by taxi, bus, or private car via the BR-469 highway, and parking is available. Book your ticket on the official website to avoid queues.

The price for adults is approximately R$ 466 and for children aged 6 to 11 it is R$ 233 (2024 prices, check for updates). Children under 6 enter free with a paying adult; there are discounts for Brazilians with ID. Buy online at the ticket page.

The full experience lasts about 2 hours, including the jeep safari, trail walk, and the exciting boat ride to the falls. I recommend arriving 30 minutes early for check-in. It is ideal for half a day.

Macuco Safari offers an immersion into the subtropical jungle of Iguaçu National Park, highlighting biodiversity and proximity to Iguazu Falls, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It was created to promote sustainable ecotourism, allowing visitors to see wildlife such as coatis and macaws in their natural habitat.

The best time is from May to September, during the dry season with less rain and better visibility. Go early in the morning to avoid crowds and enjoy the cooler temperatures; afternoons can be hotter.

The attraction has partial accessibility: the jeep safari and initial areas are accessible, but the walk and the boat involve uneven trails and stairs, making them unsuitable for wheelchairs. Contact +55 45 3521-9300 for special options or assistance.

Nearby are Iguazu Falls (10 minutes by car), the Bird Park, and the national park. Combine it with a visit to the Argentine side for complete panoramic views.

Bring insect repellent, sunscreen, comfortable light clothing, and a change of clothes because you will get wet on the boat. Book in advance, especially in high season, and eat something light beforehand since there are no restaurants inside. Follow the guides' instructions for safety.
