Overview
You can’t visit Foz do Iguaçu without taking in the spectacular sight of the majestic Itaipu Dam! A true marvel, the largest in the world in electricity generation responsible for almost 20% of Brazil’s electricity consumption and 90% of Paraguay’s. It’s a gigantic in all senses being one of the seven engineering wonders of the modern world.
Once you arrive at the dam, you’ll enjoy a minimum of 3:30 h of leisure time taking two on-site tours.
Upon arrival, appreciate the lookout point with privileged views of the whole infrastructure.
Accompanied by our guide, the first part of the tour is taken in a walk through the protection unit, a refuge created to preserve the fauna and flora habitat of about 50 species of animals.
We then take a tour though the facilities of the dam on a comfortable panoramic double-decker bus operated by Itaipu.
After the tour, have a typical Brazilian lunch at the restaurant by the Itaipu lake, enjoy a beautiful view combined with excellent cuisine.

Interesting contrast between nature and human accomplishments.

Our guide provided us with the opportunity to redo the biological refuge portion of the trip due to the heavy rain. She was very informative about the things we saw and local history. The dam is awesome to see.
Great trip!
