Itinerary
Day 1
Pick up at airport and short orientation tour of St. John's. An
evening picture show will introduce you to the highlights of the
upcoming adventure.
Overnight St.
John's
Day 2
Today begins with a boat tour featuring North America's largest puffin
colony, and thousands of other seabirds. Often we find dolphins,
humpbacks, and the year's first fin whales. We enjoy a local lunch at
a small restaurant (or a picnic lunch in a natural setting) before
visiting one of the New World's earliest fishing villages.
Overnight St.
John's
Day 3
Members of the world's most southerly caribou herd, a small puffin
colony, and seals are usually seen as we circle the Avalon Wilderness
Area.
Overnight St.
John's
Day 4
Travel to North America's most easterly point and briefly explore the
oldest City before traveling to the first outpost of New France. Then
we visit the Continent's third largest gannet colony. This site is
also a breeding ground for thousands of other seabirds and they will
all be waiting for your camera. Another caribou herd, land-based whale
watching, and moose are often part of the day's wonders. Your holiday
gala will either be a barbecue at our cottage near the town of Colinet
or a late restaurant supper in the city.
