I think we saw everything that St John had to offer. John; the tour guide was unbelievably knowledgeable about all of Canada’s history. You could tell he’s proud of his city and proud to be a Canadian. He made me want to move to Canada. Andre; the captain of the boat; they used in the water part of the tour was charming and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend this tour to give you a thorough taste of St. John.

Your Tripshepherd Guide will greet you at your downtown Saint John accommodations and begin your fully guided tour in the comfort and style of one of our vans.

Begin your tour with a stop at the Saint John City Market, an iconic market dating back to the 1870’s offering a large variety of vendors carrying local produce, meats, seafood and crafts. Here you will have the opportunity to fuel up for the tour with a tasty snack at one of the shops or cafes or find unique souvenirs for friends and family. This market is the oldest continuously operated farmers market in Canada - they must be doing something right!

Next, sit back and relax on a fully narrated driving tour through Saint John passing many popular sites and attractions such as the beautiful Rockwood Park located in the heart of the city, Saint John Port, the bustling Uptown, urban park - King Square, the thrilling Reversing Falls Rapids, Irving House, Red Rose Tea House, City Gardens, and historic Fort Howe.

You will then witness the thrilling reversing falls rapids, a series of rapids on the Saint John River where the river runs through a narrow gorge before emptying into the Bay of Fundy - this is a sight to behold as the monstrously high tide reverses the flow of the mighty Saint John River known as ‘nature’s tug-of-war’.

Then, take a step back in history at the Carleton Martello Tower - one of the nine surviving Martello Towers in Canada dating back to 1812 playing a significant role in conflicts up until the Second World War. Here you can look out over the city of Saint John, its harbor and skyline from the viewpoint.
