The Rhine Falls, located on the High Rhine near the village of Neuhausen am Rheinfall and just below Schaffhausen in northern Switzerland, are a breathtaking natural wonder.

On average, 600 cubic meters of water thunder over the falls every second, creating a spectacular display for visitors. Switzerland Tour warmly invites nature lovers and travelers to marvel at the awe-inspiring beauty of Europe’s largest waterfall. Experience the extraordinary power of nature and witness the incredible forces that have shaped our planet. The world-famous Rhine Falls is estimated to be around 15,000 years old.

Stein am Rhein is renowned for its beautifully preserved old town, which radiates a unique charm. The narrow streets are flanked by splendid half-timbered houses adorned with artistic frescoes on their façades. These elaborate depictions, featuring both biblical and secular themes, transform a stroll through the town into a journey back in time. The town hall and the buildings surrounding the town hall square, in particular, are true treasures of historical architecture. Beyond its architecture, the town also offers rich cultural attractions. The former Benedictine Abbey of St. George, established in the 11th century, now serves as a museum showcasing the history of the town and the surrounding region.
