Overview

Let’s take a drive and visit the many pretty outport communities that sprinkle the shores of Conception Bay; a region teeming with amazing stories about ancient pirates, WW2 submarine attacks, the dawn of transatlantic aviation, arctic exploration, and North America’s first European colony. This is a true Newfoundland experience that everyone who comes from away will embrace. Great times, great people, and great food await.

*Please Note: The lunch is soup, with fish cakes, and a dessert. If you have any dietary restrictions please let us know and we will accommodate you*

We pick up prior to the listed departure time, a set amount of time- see list below.As an example of how this works, for a 9:30 tour, if the hotel listed says "30 minutes prior to departure," that means we should be there to pick you up right around 9:00 am. We will pick you up just outside of the lobby of each of the hotels unless otherwise specified.ALT Hotel – 15 minutes prior to tour departureBannerman Park Suites – 20 minutes prior to tour departureBest Western – 45 minutes prior to tour departureCapital Hotel - 45 minutes prior to tour departureComfort Inn - 45 minutes prior to tour departureCompton House - 10 minutes prior to tour departureCourtyard by Marriott - 20 minutes prior to tour departureDelta - 10 minutes prior to tour departure *Pickup from Lower Lobby*DoubleTree - 20 minutes prior to tour departure *Pickup from Lower Lobby*Duckworth Hotel – 15 minutes prior to tour departureExtended Stay - 5 minutes prior to tour departureFairfield Inn - 45 minutes prior to tour departureFranklin Hotel - 15 minutes prior to tour departureGower Guest House – 15 minutes prior to tour departureHampton Inn and Suites - 45 minutes prior to tour departureHilton Garden Inn - 10 minutes prior to tour departureHoliday Inn Express - 45 minutes prior to tour departureHoliday Inn Portugal Cove Road - 40 minutes prior to tour departureHomeport Hotel – 40 minutes prior to tour departureHometel on Signal Hill - 25 minutes prior to tour departureJag Hotel - 10 minutes prior to tour departureLeaside Manor - 5 minutes prior to tour departureMallard Cottage – 25 minutes prior to tour departureMemorial University (MacPherson College) - 30 minutes prior to tour departureMonastery Spa and Suites – 5 minutes prior to tour departureMurray Premises - 15 minutes prior to tour departureNarrows B&B - 15 minutes prior to tour departurePippy Park (Main Entrance) - 30 minutes prior to tour departureRamada - 45 minutes prior to tour departureSandman Signature – 45 minutes prior to tour departureSheraton Hotel - 20 minutes prior to tour departureSuper 8 Hotel - 40 minutes prior to tour departureThe Roses B&B - 20 minutes prior to tour departureThe Rooms - 30 minutes prior to tour departureVisitor Information Centre - 15 minutes prior to tour departure
