"Maximum splash, minimum travel"
World Famous
Niagara Falls
USA / Canada
The world's most famous waterfalls, straddling the US-Canada border. Thundering water, mist rainbows, and tourist boats since 1846.
European Alternative
Rhine Falls
Switzerland
Europe's largest waterfall by volume. 150m wide, surrounded by medieval castles and vineyards. Take a boat right up to the central rock. Easily reached by Swiss rail.
Why These Two?
Both are wide, thundering waterfalls with boat tours taking you into the mist and spray.
