Surprisingly Newfoundland

Jagged coastlines and rugged and unspoilt nature. Atmospheric fishing villages and a rich history. Newfoundland is surprising! On this tour, take walks through vast nature reserves and experience how deafening silence can be. Observe the air-to-air spoils of the loudly chirping puffins at Bay Bulls and keep your eyes open during the boat ride to curious whales who might come alongside to take a look. Through the cultural Trinity and the wooded Terra Nova National Park you will continue to travel the Gros Morne N.P./Norris Point. The hanging valleys and high waterfalls make the area unique. Not for nothing is it a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
