10. Kaieteur Falls, Guyana
Points – 5
Located on the Potaro River in the Kaieteur National Park from Guyana, Kaieteur Falls is quite impressive. Hidden within the Amazon forest, the water takes a 741 feet plunge over a cliff, only to continue its fall over steep cascades, adding up to a total height of 822 feet. This makes it about four times higher than Niagara Falls, just so you can paint a better picture in your mind.
What makes this waterfall even more impressive is the high volume of water falling over the cliff, having an average flow rate of 23,400 cubic feet per second.
The waterfall is a major tourist attraction in Guyana, as it should be given its beauty.
