Car Rental at Puerto Iguazú Airport (IGR)

Aeropuerto Internacional Cataratas del Iguazú (IGR) is one of Argentina's busiest tourist airports with ten rental companies on site, and is located approximately 20 km southeast of Puerto Iguazú center. The airport receives direct flights from Buenos Aires, Córdoba, and São Paulo, and is the natural gateway to Iguazu Falls. Renting a car here gives you maximum flexibility to explore the triple border region.

From IGR to Parque Nacional Iguazú's Argentine entrance is just approximately 8 km, which takes about 10 minutes. Puerto Iguazú center is reached in approximately 25 minutes north. Brazilian Foz do Iguaçu and its falls viewpoint is approximately 35 km via the border crossing Puente Tancredo Neves.

With ten rental companies on site, there is good competition – compare prices carefully and ask about border crossing conditions for Brazil and Paraguay. Book your car in advance during high season in July and January when the airport is very busy. Drive directly to the park upon arrival in the morning for the best light and fewest crowds at the falls.
