What Travelers Say About St. John's

Read our reviews on TripAdvisor
  • “We had a wonderful, personalised tour of St. John’s, New Brunswick, with Trevor, a fantastic local guide who made our experience truly special. The area is captivating, with sweeping views, fresh coastal air, and a lovely mix of natural scenery and fascinating places to explore. Trevor showed us several highlights, including Duck Pond Beach, where the shoreline and open water created a peaceful, refreshing setting; the covered bridge, with its charming character; and Rockwood Park, where wooded paths and quiet Autum leaves and green spaces offered a beautiful escape. Each stop had its own unique charm, and Trevor’s excellent local knowledge and genuine enthusiasm brought the area to life. He was passionate about showing us the very best of what St. John has to offer, sharing details that made the scenery and local history even more engaging. Trevor’s friendly manner and personal touch made the tour truly memorable. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him and would highly recommend Trevor to anyone wanting to discover the real St. John!
