Foz de Iguacu / Iguazu Falls

[Phish]

On my trip to Igazu falls I found that this is quite a bad town for mongers, that language make it a little more difficult if you don't know Portugese.

I happened to be staying that the Hotel Tropical Das Catharatus which was more that 26 kms from the city.. when I finally did go into the city it was a sunday and most places seem to close by 09:00 p.m.

I say few places that say Club with neon lights, I went in the place was dead and so damn dark that you woudn't know if you were picking up a 18 year old chick or a 90 year old granny. I tried few outdoor cafe's but no success just wanste of money as the few chicks who lingered there seem to vanish and I don't think they were ever looking to be picked up.

Maybe there is action here.. but someone ocal needs to write up a detailed report to give some of us/fellow mongers some pointers.

Also most of us go here for 3 or 4 days max to see the falls (just to cloak/hide your mongers with trip pics etc from family and friends).

If any of you guys have had a different experience please post, we would all love to hear.

My only memorable thing here was at the Tropical hotel I hooked up with a guest at the bar (she was damn horny and her husband was drunk and passed out.. thats what she said), even more wierd she was from India.

It was the first time I ever fucked and Indian even though she seemed like in her 30's she was one hell of a tight fuck and came all over my sheets that I had to call for spare sheets from house keeping... ha ha.

If you speak Portuguese, you could also ask your cab driver to help you find a prive or a casa. I was in the Foz on a Sunday night last year, and my driver found my girl and me a house with about 10 girls, most of them pretty (only two of them did couples, however). I would have preferred a boite for the ambience, etc, but the expereience turned out to be a lot of fun (a blond, my girl and I did a threesome for a couple of hours in a local motel).

Mongering with the own girlfriend.

Lucky men.

Has some good-looking girls-next-door type who are fun to be with. No pressure at all. Just good fun.

Everytime there is a report about Iguacu nightclubs I only read about Crystal.While Crystal is a great nightclub I had a great experience at a smaller club called Scorpion.

Simply ask the cab driver and the rest is usual Brazilian experience at significantly lowercost than Crystal.

Does anyone know if there are any vaccinations needed to go to the Falls? I am thinking of going in January and have only traveled been to Rio in my previous trips to Brazil

Nope, none needed. I was just there.

Purchased ticket online from Gol for 242 Reals. Will be flying out of Santos Dumont. Will check out Crystal, Vera, and street action.

Got air quotes from Puerto Iguazu, ARG to BA ranging from $250 USD to $300 USD. Decided to bus it.

Sorry for the months of delay. Back home now. All went well. Brief report as follows:

Stayed several nights on Brasil side. Unfortunately, I did no monger during my stay. Did visit the falls on the Brasilian side. Impressed. I would rec. a visit should any of you go there.

Crossed the border into ARG via a taxi. Went to bus station and caught a luxury long distance bus to BA. Travelled first class.

Stopped two times at military checkpoints. At one ARG checkpoint, the soldier inspected my passport, and then questioned my ARG visa. At that time, I did not know that my visa was to expire in a few days, and he questioned why I was on a long-distance bus, and how long my travels were. Although I understood him to the T, I responded in [CodeWord140] poor Spanish/English combo, and stated that I am due to catch a plane upon arriving in BA. READ POST BELOW ABOUT ARG VISAS IN FOZ AREA.

Stayed at the WSG Mansion for several days. Jackson and Dave were super hosts. Met other fellow members. BA was interesting and different. My BA reports have been posted at the ARG forum.

Does anyone know whether someone can renew the entry visa to Brasil by crossing the border to Argentina at the Foz do Iguasu (and maybe by staying overnight there) ?

I have never been there and by doing this I want to avoid a trip to Buenos Aires in order to extend my stay in Brasil for another month or so.

I know that someone can get a second three month stay by applying for that to the immigrasion but I want to avoid that process this time.

Thanks

If you cross the border you will receive and ARG entry stamp. HOWEVER, you must tell them your visit is in EXCESS of several days. Many tourists from Brasil frequent the falls, AND receive an entry stamp VALID for SEVERAL DAYS ONLY. Tell ARG immigration that you are on your way, via bus, to BA, AND you are staying for several weeks in that city.

If you have many, many Brasil entry/exit stamps, and others, the above should be sufficient and without problem when re-entering into Brasil. Because when you re-enter , the PF is unlikely to calculate the number days you were in and out (only checking visa validity and expiration). HOWEVER, there is always a chance they might calculate days. If the PF is prick enough to do such, expect to pay a fine(X days x fine per day) and deported.

The PF are neither dumb or careless. Almost all at immigration check points speak English. It is only if you catch them during their laziness that such can be pulled off.

We were there 2 weeks ago. No problem crossing the borders in a rental car. Got an Argentinian entry/exit stamp in passport. No Brazilian border re-entry checks. Right now the Falls are magnificant because of 15 times more water due to above normal rainfall.

Foz do Iguacu has an active night life. Ave. das Cataratas has a club Crystal Casa de Shows with beautiful show girls.

For non-pro action try International Disco Club and outdoor cafe on Ave. Jorge Schimmelpfeng. Hundreds of potential encounters on the weekend. Other outdoor cafes nearby.

Thank you very much. Your info is very helpfull.

Do I have to stay overnight at the Argentinian side or same day return to Brasil does the job?

El Greco

[J Wadd]

...Yes, you can do that and it's very easy. Go to the Argentinian side -- it's more efficient; the Paraguayan officials didn't even bother with an exit stamp when I came through (that's why I went to Argentina). Either way, it's easy.

Happy Hunting,
JW

Look into local paper for the discount wholesale travel agencies.

Got air quotes from Puerto Iguazu, ARG to BA ranging from $250 USD to $300 USD. Decided to bus it.
