On this 2-hour guided, small group tour you’ll explore Saint John and its attractions lit up at night. Your tour begins with your fun and friendly local guide meeting at your downtown Saint John accommodation. You’ll then begin a narrated drive of the city passing several dazzling points of interest lit up at night such as the Saint John Port, Uptown, the City Market, King Square, and Fort Howe.
Your guide will bring you to the Reversing Falls Rapids. Twice each day 100 billion tons of water enters and exits the Bay of Fundy. At the Reversing Falls Rapids, water levels can rise as high as 9 meters in a tidal cycle. This is a sight to behold as the enormously high tide reverses the flow of the mighty Saint John River known as ‘nature’s tug-of-war’.
Next, take a step back in time at Fort La Tour, a National Historic Site of Canada. Fort La Tour is an archaeological site containing the remains of a 17th-century fortified fur trading post and evidence of over 4000 years of Indigenous history.
