5.00This shore excursion was wonderful. I can’t say enough about the tour and especially about the tour guide. John was just the best. He went out of his way to make sure we enjoyed the day. He went over and above. You can tell he loves doing this. He made extra stops along the way, explained everything in details and was just a blast to speed the day with him. The Bay of Fundy was just awesome. This was the highlight of our trip. Thanks for making this a great day for all of us.

5.00Our cruise on the Majestic Princess from August 9-16 was truly unforgettable, and a major highlight was the "Bay of Fundy with Shore Tours" excursion in Saint John, New Brunswick. We were captivated by the stunning natural beauty of the Bay of Fundy, and our experience was elevated to another level by our tour guide, Steve. He wasn't just a guide; he was a storyteller, a comedian, and a font of fascinating information. Steve's passion for the region was contagious, and he shared so many interesting facts about the tides, the geology, and the history of the area. He navigated the tour with ease, ensuring everyone had a great view and a chance to take photos. The timing was perfect to witness the dramatic change in tides, a phenomenon that truly lives up to its reputation. We felt we got a comprehensive and intimate look at the Bay of Fundy, and we left with a deeper appreciation for this incredible natural wonder. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Saint John, and if you're lucky enough to have Steve as your guide, you're in for a treat. He is truly a tour guide extraordinaire!
Perfect Day in St. John’s Bay

5.00We had such a fantastic experience on our bus tour of St. John’s Bay, NB! The tour hit all the key spots we hoped to see—Reversing Falls, the charming downtown area, the historic sites, and beautiful viewpoints—but what made it truly special was how personal and welcoming it felt. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and made an effort to connect with everyone on board. We never felt rushed, and the timing at each stop was just right for exploring and taking photos. It was a really positive experience for me and my family—we learned a lot, laughed plenty, and walked away with great memories of our time in New Brunswick. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a smooth, well-organized way to experience all that St. John’s Bay has to offer!

1.00I got the notification of the meeting location but no time range of arriving to there. I was worried to miss the tour so I arrived at 8 am on June 10 at 111 Water Street, the Cruise Ship Terminal. The tour guide appeared about 9:30 am. I advised there should contact the customers about the arriving time before. When checking the set to go time, I was told to wait until 10 am. I commented that was not professional & responsibility. I expected he said sorry but he said I could cancel the trip if I didn't want to wait and wait. I was really not appreciated and answered I would do so some days ago if I knew like that. I cancelled it at the last minutes , where did I go then and had no refund on the departure date. One more issue on the way, the van had a breakdown and took about 40 mins to fit it. From arriving to the meeting point 8 am, set to go at 10 am and then the 40 mins breakdown, how much time I had wasted because of this tour.
