Why choose family photography in Foz do Iguaçu?
A family session at the Iguaçu Falls has to work for grandparents and toddlers at once. The good news is that the falls are not a hike: the park is built for mass visiting, with buses, a paved trail and a lift. The planning question is energy, not access, because the session happens at the end of a bus ride and a walk, and a tired three-year-old does not smile at a waterfall.
Worth knowing about Foz do Iguaçu
The park ticket includes the internal transport, a round trip of about 12 km between the Visitor Centre and the Trilha das Cataratas, a walk of about 1 km, the lift and the main viewpoints. A family session at the falls is placed on the first viewpoints right after the bus, and the lift takes children and grandparents back up instead of the stairs.
