So from that point on, we had a decision to make. Should we get off the next stop and take the next train back to Ueno hoping that we’d arrive in time to catch the 8am train back to Mito?…

So which side of Niagara Falls is better? Canada or United States? Certainly, the obvious answer is that they’re both good but different. However, we’ll break down why this is the case…

In our visits to Niagara Falls, we’ve found that we could get more out of our time spent here by doing more than just going on the walks alongside the Niagara River or staring at the falls from a room with a view.

When is the best time to visit Victoria Falls? That is a tricky question because it really depends on what you’re looking for. For instance…

When is the best time to visit Iguazu Falls? Well that really depends on what you’re trying to get out of your visit? Are you looking for more water in the waterfall? More activities to do at the waterfall?…

Because a waterfall such as Victoria Falls spans two different countries, it’s natural to ask which side is better. In this case, is the Zimbabwe (or Zim) side better? Or is the Zambia (or Zam) side better?…

While I realize that answering this question really depends on who’s doing the asking, we can only speak from experience so we’re going to break down how we were able to get to Iguazu Falls from Los Angeles…

When is the best time to visit Kaieteur Falls? To answer this question, we’ll need to understand the rainfall patterns of the Guyana Shield (the plateau on which Kaieteur Falls drops)…

Getting to Victoria Falls was not easy because it was pretty much on the opposite side of the world for us. In fact, we managed to visit this place as part of a larger around-the-world trip. That said, if a long trip isn’t an option…

Kaieteur Falls was one of the more remote waterfalls we’ve visited around the world, especially considering it was more of an “off-the-beaten-path” world class attraction. The falls had largely escaped…

While I realize that answering this question really depends on who’s doing the asking, we can only speak from experience so we’re going to break down how we were able to get to Niagara Falls from Los Angeles…

Because a waterfall such as Iguazu Falls spans two different countries, it’s natural to ask which side is better. In this case, is the Argentina side better? Or is the Brazil side better? Now I know there are those who’ll dismiss this question and say…

While Julie and I were able to experience Victoria Falls by self touring the lookouts on both the Zambia and Zimbabwe side, we also took part in some paid excursions to further immerse ourselves. In this post, we’ll highlight the excursions or activities that we did to give you an idea of how we supplemented our time here.

When is the best time to visit Niagara Falls? I’d imagine it really depends on what you’re looking for. That said, I’m pretty sure that at the heart of most peoples’ desires upon a visit here would be a desire for…

This was one of those trips that served dual purposes. Since I went alone with my parents, they got to see parts of Northern California and Southern Oregon that they had never seen before (or at least not in the way that Julie and I have done in the past, which mostly involved hiking to waterfalls)….

Pearsony Falls (I’ve also seen it spelled Pearsoney Falls) was kind of our last waterfalling throw-in after having visited the nearby duo of Mill Creek Falls and Barr Creek Falls. In fact, if it…

Duwee Falls was said to be Crater Lake National Park’s largest officially-named waterfall (the other two named falls in the park were Vidae Falls and Plaikni Falls; the latter we didn’t have time…

The Natural Bridge on the Rogue River was something we stumbled upon while making the long drive from Medford to Crater Lake National Park. We certainly didn’t anticipate visiting this quirk…

With Mill Creek Falls and Barr Creek Falls, we were able to get a rare two-for-one waterfalling experience where both waterfalls were within a stone’s throw from each other yet each were quite…

Toketee Falls completely disarmed my parents and I when we first laid eyes on it. Even though it was modestly-sized at a reported cumulative height of 120ft (where the mostly hidden upper drop fell…
