  • Rhine Falls is the biggest waterfall of Europe
  • Huge masses of water thundering down is a sight to behold

This tour is your chance to experience a fantastic natural spectacle - Rhine Falls, Europe’s biggest waterfall. The powerful play of huge masses of water thundering down, with the spray arching up in a rainbow above the forested banks, is truly a sight to behold. For a close up view, you have the option of taking a boat-ride near the falls.

You could also take the path that begins from the medieval castle ‘Schloss Laufen’, down alongside the splashing water onto the lookout point for a breathtaking contact with the falls. There are a few souvenir shops and restaurants in the area, where you can relax with a cup of coffee.

Itinerary

You have the option to get picked up in an air-conditioned coach from the Zurich Airport (Meeting point: 1st floor, between terminal 1 and 2) or start the tour from the bus parking near Zurich Main Train Station (Stop: Sihlquai, Streetcar: 4, 13). Accompanied by a multi-lingual guide speaking English, Spanish and German, you will be taken to the Rhine Falls, Europe’s biggest waterfall.

To visit the Rhine Falls, you will be taken to Northern Switzerland close to the German border. Drive through Schaffhausen, capital of the canton under the same name with its famous Munot Fortress from the 16th century. On the way to the falls we will pass through some small, typical winegrowers villages located in the important Wine-Region of Northern Switzerland. Rhine Falls are about 23 metres in height and 150 metres in breadth, popular more for its impressive breadth than height. You could take a boat ride near the falls and experience it up close (optional).

After marveling at the falls, return by coach to Zurich with a stop at the airport (if you wish to end your tour here) and then to the bus station.
