Our Saint John tour with Steve exceeded our expectations! Steve is a "larger than life" kind of guy and very knowledgeable and exceptionally entertaining. We learned a great deal about Saint John and the Bay of Fundy, and we ventured farther into the lovely surrounding countryside than anticipated. Our exploration was totally enjoyable and educational, and our lunch (cost not included) near The Caves at St. Martin's was a tasty and picturesque pause in the journey.

Steve was a knowledgeable guide and great character. Brought humour to the tour. The caves at The Bay of Fundy and restaurant overlooking them was my favourite.

Our guide Bill was friendly, humorous, and very informative. We never had a dull moment. Our stops were interesting and fun. Lunch stop had the best Clam Chowder.

The Viator route described the following route but we only made points 1 and 5: 1- Reversing Falls Rapids: we made one stop in the morning and another at the end of the day to find that the direction of the river was reversed 2- Fort Howe National Historic Site of Canada: did not make this stop 3- Carleton Martello Tower: did not make this stop 4- Saint John City Market: did not make this stop 5- Bay Of Fundy: along the Scenic Way we stopped at a lighthouse, wooden bridge, waterfront and Lobster Cove, but did not visit any sea cave as described When we passed the City Market, I asked why we didn't stop as planned.... Steve told me that he could leave me there if I wanted to go and that I would have to manage to get back to the port which was about a 15-minute walk away

Interesting stops along the way. Beautiful photo opportunities. Plenty of time to take lots of photos. Highly recommend for an easy way to see St John and the Bay of Fundy.

Could have never imagined what a great experience this would be when I stumbled upon it online!!! We chose this as an excursion for a cruise stop in Saint John & after we found the bus at the terminal, we were in for a treat! Abdul was the best tour guide we have ever had in all of our travels! Simply amazing how he made the place come alive and took time to stop and explain what we were seeing at Reversal Falls. Stopped to show us again on the way home to allow us to see a river flowing the OPPosite Direction!!! Someone who loves where they live can’t help but overflow with excitement in sharing important facts and that’s the best way I can describe having Abdul for your tour guide!! We would love to be on his tour if we return to St John & Bay of Fundy!! Super Fun was being taken to St Martin to walk on the sea floor and go into the caves accessible when the tide goes out. The restaurant was terrific for possibly perfect fish for our lunch!! Being in a smaller bus, we also stopped at a light house and got to walk out onto the land revealed when the tide went out! Taking photos down there of the cliffs looking back was a once in a lifetime experience for my husband & me! 10/10 recommend the Octopus Ice Cream Shop in St Martin where we stopped to take pictures of the covered bridges & the boats sitting “on dry land!” Ice cream was delicious!! This was the best tour, comfy bus, great price, wonderful explanations & made our trip to Saint John be the highlight of Canada New England in the Fall Cruise!

Great tour. Steve stopped along the way and showed us a covered bridge and talked about some of the cool little things along the way. He showed us the river that runs backwards. It was an awesome day! We had some great chowder also.

Abdul was an excellent tour guide. He made sure we all got to see everything and gave us great insight into the area. It’s a must tour. We loved it!

This was a tour full of information and fun facts! It was like everything we wanted to see was added and then some. There was a keen eye kept on time, so that we would make it back to our ship on time. That was much appreciated! I love a little history of the area too, and that was evident and added everywhere we went!

Great trip great experience tour operators go the extra mile to make sure you have a full experience. Our cruise ship changed days and times it was going to Port. Abdul took care of everything. made sure we made it to all the spots at the right timing for the tide changes so we could enter the sea caves and have all the other experiences along the way. Couldn’t have asked for a better tour operator to work with. Made a personalized effort to engage with everyone on the tour to make their experience memorable.
