7 Days Newfoundland Walking Adventure Tour Package

Duration: 7 Days / 6 Nights
Priced From: $7,395 pp dbl. occ.
Dates: Aug, Jul, Aug
Start/Finish: St. John's / St. John's

It’s been a thousand years since the Vikings first landed here, and we’re guessing you’ll be as astonished by what you find in Newfoundland as they were – a vast island both barren and beautiful, rugged and romantic, astonishing in its isolation. But thanks to float planes and charter flights, boats and buses, we will explore the best of it, travelling from east to west to north and back. We show you where those Vikings landed and hike through the spectacular Tablelands; fly you to the tip of the Great Northern Peninsula (where moose outnumber humans) to spend a night aside crashing waves and passing whales at The Lighthouse; and spend three nights in pretty Trinity Bay, the historic place where The Shipping News was filmed.

Trip Highlights

•Take a scenic flight over Gros Morne National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site

•Enjoy a traditional “boil up” of fresh mussels picked by you – plus dine on lobster, caribou and fresh cod

•Shove off in boats with local fishermen in search of flirtatious minke whales

•Walk along coastal trails voted among the best in North America, keeping your eyes peeled for eagles, whales and porpoises

•Kick back at Fisher's Loft, the best hotel on “The Rock”

Accommodations

Fairmont Newfoundland Hotel, St. John’s
Although the Fairmont Newfoundland Hotel is larger than our typical B&R hotel, we have the intimate feeling of being in a smaller property by staying on the Gold Floor. We also have access to all of the hotel’s amenities (pool, spa, gym). The rooms are the most modern in the city, and all offer a view, either of the city or the water.

Strawberry Hill Resort, Little Rapids
Set on nine private hectares, the elegant Strawberry Hill Resort is a perfect way to begin our stay in rural Newfoundland. Among the long list of distinguished guests that have visited the resort are former Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Philip and (rumour has it) Marilyn Monroe. For the anglers in the group, our stay here offers a great opportunity for salmon fishing as the resort overlooks the Humber River, a world-famous salmon waterway.

The Lighthouse, Quirpon Island
There is literally nothing on the island but the inn, the lighthouse and a few huts. The closest other man-made light comes from the next lighthouse over, 70 km away on the tip of Labrador. Otherwise, it is pitch black, and aside from the wind and the waves, dead quiet. The National Geographic Traveller says of the Quirpon Lighthouse: “I’d once paddled the entire Inside Passage, from Alaska’s ice-choked Glacier Bay to Puget Sound, but I’d never seen anything like this.” While we bunk in smallish rooms and share a bathroom, it is worth it. Imagine falling asleep to the pounding North Atlantic and waking up to the sight of icebergs and whales passing by outside your window.

Fishers’ Loft, Port Rexton
On the Bonavista Peninsula, we are hosted by John and Peggy Fisher at the appropriately named Fishers’ Loft. Located in Port Rexton, Fishers’ Loft is a collection of buildings that have been lovingly and carefully brought to life in the authentic Newfoundland style. It is no surprise that this is the best hotel in Newfoundland--your every need will be catered to, as we enjoy impeccable and friendly service, as well as delicious home-cooked meals with produce fresh from John and Peggy’s garden.
