On a recent trip to Iguazu Falls with Children, including two one year olds we inquired about boat trips that were safe for children. No problems we were told - the boats are perfectly safe and comfortable for babies. Ok - they are probably safe - the babies were issued with slightly too big life vests and that meant they were difficult to hold. What wasn't mentioned is that you are driven underneath the waterfall - the whole idea of the boat trip is to put you under the fall - that's it, it isn't really a tour down the river - and you don't need to do it, in fact don't take any kid under 2 on it - they just get drenched and grumpy. Kids can stay on shore and parent/s, etc can go if they wish - they sell it as a point A to B trip, but point B isn't really that far away walking. So enjoy your views etc - the babies stay away from the boats!!!
