Overview

Discover Newfoundland, with Newfoundlanders!

Become acquainted with the city of St. John's and its surroundings, including Cape Spear, the most Easterly point in North America. Your local guide will regale you with its steeped history, legends & lore - all flavoured with personal anecdotes and good humour for which Newfoundlanders are so famous.

Enjoy the brilliant vistas from Cabot Tower and Signal Hill, one of the most recognisable skylines in Canada. Walk through a cliffside World War II gun battery, watch for whales and seabirds, and visit the oldest standing lighthouse in the province. Other sights include Quidi Vidi Village, Jam Bean Row, Government House, the Roman Catholic Basilica, and an orientation of the shops and restaurants of the city centre core.

Please note that Newfoundland and New Brunswick are different places- there are two towns with similar names- St. John New Brunswick and St. John's Newfoundland. We are in Newfoundland and do not run tours in NB.

Activity itinerary

Cape Spear Lighthouse National Historic Site
  • 15m
The most Easterly Point in North America, this spit of land and famous lighthouses are well known the world over for welcoming travellers from across the seas.
Petty Harbour
  • 15m
This quaint fishing village provides visitors with a taste of what small-town Newfoundland is like, outside the hustle-bustle of St. John's. In season keep your eyes peeled for fish coming in on the boats!
Jellybean Row Houses
  • 10m
These iconic houses stand out and help make St. John's the vibrant and colourful town that it is.
Signal Hill
  • 15m
We will explore the iconic Signal Hill, with its commanding view of St. John's, the iconic Cabot Tower, and the impressive gun emplacements and history.
Quidi Vidi

This charming village is a perfect last stop on the tour- a perfect representation of the old economy and the new. Fishermen still take their small boats out from the harbour in the "gut," while in the old fish plant, some of the most interesting beer in Newfoundland is brewed.
