Niagara Falls comprises three falls that combine to produce the largest flow rate of any waterfall in the world. Not even the majestic Iguazu can match Niagara for its sheer force. One cannot help but be awed by the powerful, resounding crashing of the waters.

If you are a fan of the calmer side of life, you can opt for a wine-tasting tour, play golf on a picture-perfect course, or simply sample some excellent Niagara cuisine.
