Foz do Iguaçu

Paraná, Brazil

4.5 (0)

Overview

Municipality of Paraná state, Brazil. It lies in southern Brazil, where winters are genuinely cold and summers are the high season.

Why visit: Rio's beaches and hills, São Paulo's restaurants and galleries, Salvador's Afro-Brazilian old town — each a different country's worth of city.

Things to do

›Eat at a per-kilo lunch buffet — cheap, excellent and how Brazilians eat
›Use apps for taxis rather than hailing, especially after dark
›Carry a little cash and leave the rest at the hotel
›Ask locally which neighbourhoods to walk in at night; the answer changes by block
