Full description
As you travel towards the Rhine Falls in northern Switzerland on this coach trip, you’ll pass through the charming farming village of Marthalen, with its traditional frame houses. You’ll also see the 16th-century Munot Fortress and the area’s renowned vineyards. The highlight of the trip will undoubtedly be the sight of the Rhine Falls. This natural feature is located on the Upper Rhine River and has been around since the Ice Age. During the summer you can take an optional boat ride to the middle of the falls, at the heart of the cascading waters, and enjoy the magnificent spectacle from the viewing platforms. Alternatively, you can enjoy a leisurely hour on the banks of the river. The return journey takes you over the border to southern Germany for a short stretch. Back in Zurich, you’ll be dropped off in the city center. A multi-lingual guide leads the excursion. The tour is a great way to start or end your vacation.

This was a great half day experience! Manuel was a fun and interesting guide who stuck with the group every step of the way, genuinely caring that we had a great time, including taking pictures and making suggestions big and small. Loved everything about this!

It was a great tour. there was an issue at the beginning, because of my service dog, they didn’t want to let me in the tour bus. it’s a hassle when you have to go to this tours and the personal, are not trained, to know the difference between a service dog and a regular dog, even though I showed them the certificate that he’s a service dog Because I suffer from different attacks. But once it was approved, everything was good.

It was nice to have the bus to take all of us about an hour outside of Zurich to the falls. Our guide Adela shared much info and helped us get our tickets and stayed with us. It was convenient for her to offer the extra boat tour which she collected in cash. That was so worth it.
