Customer Reviews

    I wanted to do a shorter tour six days and end up in St. John’s so this was perfect for me. Our guide Simon was excellent, very considerate and keen to show us new things. I thought the tour was a lovely balance of activity and some space. I saw all the important things I had come to Newfoundland for including the beautiful. Gros Morne national Park, some amazing icebergs and puffins.

    Our trip was fantastic. Our guide Caty was great, very knowledgeable and friendly. We saw so many sights in Yellowstone (bears, bison, fox, deer, elk, antelope big horn sheep). Everything was perfect.
