The guide was nice and professional on this informative tour, adding a plus value to the tour

Spent a lovely morning with Cher travelling around Saint John’s. She was easy to chat with and knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour.

We went on the Saint John City Tour. Cher was a wonderful tour guide. She was very knowledgeable about the entire area and showed us all the important sites and gave us a lot of historical information. I look forward to our next tour in Halifax, Nova Scotia

We celebrated my husband’s birthday in the east coast and booked a day tour of Saint John. Cher was timely and personalized our tour to our liking. She even went above and beyond by going 30-minutes over our allotted time. Cher drove well and is very well spoken/knowledgeable about Saint John. Also,....see more

Cher provided an excellent tour of St John She provided both a historical and current perspective
