What to Expect
Stop at: Cape Spear Lighthouse National Historic Site
The most Easterly Point in North America, this spit of land and famous lighthouses are well known the world over for welcoming travelers from across the seas.
Stop at: Petty Harbour
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!
Stop at: Jellybean Row Houses
These iconic houses stand out and help make St. John's the vibrant and colorful town that it is.
Stop at: Signal Hill
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.
Stop at: 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.
