You step off the transfer van into a spray that tastes like the river itself—cool, metallic, insistent. The footbridges of Iguazú National Park unfurl ahead, boardwalks skirting curtains of water that roar like distant drums. On the Argentinian side the paths angle you closer: the Devil's Throat demands attention, a horseshoe of falling water that throws up mist and rainbows and will likely soak the edges of your jacket.
