Why take this tour?

Your Ultimate Saint John Tour begins with pick up directly from your hotel in downtown Saint John before heading to your first stop at the Saint John City Market.

The Saint John City Market is Canada’s oldest continuously operated farmers market - must be doing something right! Here, you can grab a tasty snack or some unique souvenirs from the shops and restaurants.

After your visit to the market, your guide will take you on a scenic drive through Rockwood Park.

Next, your guide will take you on a narrated drive through Rockwood Park on the way to your next stop at the SKYWALK for a look at the Reversing Falls Rapids.

No stop at Saint John would be complete without a trip to the Reversing Falls which is where you are headed next on your tour. Step out onto the SKYWALK observation deck which gives you a from-the-sky look at the world-famous Reversing Falls Rapids and allows you to catch amazing views of uptown Saint John.

Straight from the observation deck, we head over to Carleton Martello Tower. Originally built to help defend the city during the War of 1812, this historical landmark is now used by tourists to catch spectacular uninterrupted views of the city’s harbor and city skyline.

After your visit to the Carleton Martello Tower, your guide will bring you on a sightseeing jet boat ride around the Reversing Falls Rapids - where you will learn about the Bay of Fundy and may have a chance to see some seals and dolphins!

At the end of your tour, your guide will drop you back off at your hotel.
