A city tour in panoramic vehicles, walking paths along the Costanera, an arboretum with 330 trees and a museum about the history of Misiones show the many different ways to explore Posadas.

City sightseeing and riverside paths

The Posadas city government offers the “La Jangada” City Tour as a regular sightseeing service. It operates panoramic vehicles with space for 60 people and a wheelchair. This makes the city tour different from exploring on foot: Posadas also offers walking paths along its wide Costanera. Tour schedules and reservation requirements may change. Check them before planning your day around the tour.

In the broader destination of Departamento Capital, the name “La Jangada” recalls the way wood was transported downstream on the Paraná from its upper reaches to industrial facilities and markets. Scheduled boat trips go to Isla del Medio, an attraction in Posadas. The schedule is part of planning this excursion; check departure times in advance if you want to visit the island.

Green spaces and nature

Parque de la Ciudad has a lagoon and provides a habitat for wildlife, especially birds and butterflies. The Arboretum del Parque de la Ciudad is one of five areas of particular environmental value within the city of Posadas. It contains 330 trees, including 93 native and 7 exotic species. The park thus combines a lagoon and wildlife habitats with a botanical focus. Native species are far more prominent in the arboretum than exotic ones.

Jardín Botánico Alberto Roth is a separate garden, located a few metres from Avenida Costanera. It was established in 1981. During a guided tour on February 9, 2026, the local fauna and flora were presented.

Regional history at the museum

Museo Histórico y Arqueológico Andrés Guacurarí offers a journey through more than ten thousand years of regional history in Misiones. The museum also offers personalized guided tours. Visitors can explore the exhibition halls independently using QR technology and the corresponding app. Museum visitors can therefore choose between a guided and a self-guided visit.
