  • 5Beautiful and mind blowing views of the St. John’s coast line

    Three friends and I were on a Virgin Cruise (Iceland/Greenland/NE Canada) and decided to take a tour off the set agenda for the Virgin listed land tours when we docked in St. John’s, Newfoundland. After reading the reviews for this tour I was excited. Little did I know this hike would far exceed my expectations and end up being my favorite land excursion of the entire trip. Deneen is a local and was an excellent tour lead. She is friendly, professional, interesting, and a lovely person. We learned so much about St. John’s and the entire region including key historical events. We sampled the wild blueberries growing along our trail and learned a lot about the local vegetation. The landscape and views will completely blow your mind. We really enjoyed this private tour and highly recommend it. Thank you Deneen and George. Hope to see you again.

  • 5Wonderful coastline walk!

    Deneen was a wonderful guide. Enthusiastic and knowledgeable. More of a walk than a hike, but along a beautiful coastline. Highly recommend George’s Tours

  • 5An adventure that will last for a lifetime ❤️

    Deneen is not only an excellent tour guide hiker but she also has an amazing voice! You won’t be disappointed! My sister in law and I had a great adventure and learned so much from Deneen. If you come to St. John’s Newfoundland, don’t miss this!

  • 5Fun coastal hike in Newfoundland .

    Wonderful experience. Deneen did a great job explaining things about the island and the towns revisited. The coastal hike was great break from our cruise. The fresh blueberries were a plus. Fun trip.

  • 5Coastal Hike just outside of St John

    Deneen is a fabulous tour leader. As a local, she is knowledgeable about local customs, berries, flowers, trees and what can be used for medicinal purposes. The view stops were ideal and the hike exceptional. She took us places we would never have found on our own.

About St John's

St John's is the capital of Newfoundland and Labrador, a steep harbour city of painted row houses, lively pubs, sea cliffs and Atlantic icebergs.

St John's clings to the hills around a deep harbour on the Avalon Peninsula, entered through a narrow gap in the cliffs known as The Narrows. Fishing fleets from Europe used the harbour from the 1500s. Rows of brightly painted wooden houses climb the slopes, and Signal Hill above the entrance carries Cabot Tower, close to where Marconi received the first transatlantic wireless signal in 1901.
