Exploration of Land & Sea & a little “joie de vivre”!

New Brunswick/Nouveau-Brunswick, Canada

Join us on this special journey of exploration into New Brunswick – unspoiled and uncrowded. Some even call it, Canada’s hidden gem!

Your memorable experience will start in the City of Moncton, the “hub” of the Maritimes. Enjoy a visit to the family owned and operated Magnetic Hill Winery, then take in the famous Hopewell Rocks, on the Bay of Fundy. Walk the ocean floor at low tide and experience the awe of strolling among the colossal giants of tide eroded rock formations!

After a night in Moncton, it’s off to Saint John, New Brunswick – but first, a visit to the Fundy Trail Parkway and a stopover in the picturesque seaside village of Saint Martins on your way. The Fundy Trail Parkway is a cliffside, low-speed auto parkway, with over 20 scenic lookout points, five beaches, a suspension footbridge, four waterfalls, and several hiking trails. The 30-kilometer (19-miles) scenic ride reveals spectacular geography and stunning vistas as you follow the coast of the phenomenal Bay of Fundy. Lunch in the fisherman town of Saint Martins will feed your soul with fresh seafood and more!

A quick 30-minute drive from Saint Martins will have you arriving in Saint John – Canada’s oldest incorporated city. Saint John is a blend of old and new, with an exciting urban vibe, hip atmosphere and bustling restaurant scene. Be sure to checkout Area 506 – the new shipping container village on the harbourfront docks that is host to live music, local vendors and great views.

Following breakfast in Saint John, the tour continues on to the quaint town of St. Andrews by-the-Sea, named by USA Today as the “best destination in Canada”. This enchanting seaside town is known for its fine hotels & inns, including the 5-star historic Algonquin Resort, and stunning Kingsbrae Gardens. After an afternoon in St. Andrews, it’s off to your final destination – the capital city of Fredericton, situated along the shores of the mighty St John River. Home to the Beaverbrook Art Gallery, Kings Landing Historical Village, and the annual Harvest Jazz and Blues Festival, Fredericton is a city that celebrates the rich arts and culture of New Brunswick.

As your trip to New Brunswick comes to an end, we hope you’ve enjoyed your stay, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon!
