Discover the charm, history, and natural beauty of New Brunswick’s oldest city on the Best of Saint John Tour. This thoughtfully curated small-group experience offers a comfortable, 3-hour journey through Saint John's most iconic sites, guided by a local expert.

The tour begins with pickup from your downtown Saint John hotel. Your first stop is the historic Saint John City Market, Canada’s oldest continuing farmer’s market, operating since the 1870s. Browse fresh pastries, handmade crafts, and local flavours that showcase the region’s character.

Next, enjoy a narrated driving tour past key city landmarks including Rockwood Park, the Saint John Port, Uptown Saint John, and the Victorian-era King Square. You'll also pass historic gems such as Fort Howe, the Irving House, and Red Rose Tea House, each representing a piece of the city’s rich past. A highlight of the tour is a visit to the Reversing Falls Rapids, where the Saint John River dramatically reverses its flow due to the Bay of Fundy’s powerful tides—a rare and captivating natural phenomenon.

Continue to the Carleton Martello Tower, a War of 1812-era fort with panoramic views of the city and Bay. Explore the grounds and Welcome Centre while learning about its military past. Finally, visit Fort La Tour, a National Historic Site and former fur trading post that shares 5,000+ years of Indigenous and early settler history. The tour concludes with drop-off at your hotel.
