This was a five star tour, because of the distance needed to walk from the pier to the meeting point, we took one star off. Keith our driver/guide was excellent. He was very knowledgeable of the city and sites we explored.
The tour picked us up at the cruise port and took us on a wonderful tour of St. John’s. Keith the driver of See Sight Tours was very knowledgeable. Despite being exceptionally windy and cold we walked around Cape Spear and Signal Hill. Highly recommend this tour to see the sights without a hassle.
What a great way to see a lot of St John’s. We did Signal Hill and Cape Spear to. Our tour guide Keith was fantastic. He was funny very knowledgeable and gave us a really great tour
Keith sounds like exactly the kind of guide who makes Signal Hill and Cape Spear feel like more than just stops on a list. 🌊
It was a great tour. Very knowledgeable guide. Cold windy and foggy day. Still a beautiful trip. Would recommend
A knowledgeable guide making a cold, windy and foggy Niagara day still worth every minute and a full recommendation says a lot about the quality of the experience! 🌫️
The car was too small for the four guests that were in the car. We were stuffed in the car & had to sit sideways to fit. It was difficult to get in and out of the car. When we booked the tour, they said it would accompany up to seven people. The tour guide, though personable, seemed more interested in talking about sports teams, instead of giving us the history and facts of the visited sites. Even though we didn’t mention finishing quickly, he mentioned it several times and seemed to want to end the tour sooner than the published length of the tour.
Keith was a fantastic tour guide. He’s from St. John’s so his knowledge of the island and its history is second to none. He was very accommodating throughout the tour and made sure I felt like a ViP. St. John’s is special and Keith was a phenomenal tour guide. Highly recommend this tour!
Keith's deep roots in St. John's coming through in every story and detail is exactly what makes local knowledge so irreplaceable! 😊 Feeling like a VIP throughout while exploring somewhere as special as that is the kind of experience worth telling everyone about.
It was and excellent tour of the city and cape spears and signal hill views were amazing be prepared to be amazed
It’s the kind of trip that leaves you amazed by the scenery from start to finish along the coast 🌄 The city tour along with Cape Spear and Signal Hill delivered some truly incredible views and a smooth overall experience.
I had high hopes for this excursion. Unfortunately the weather was foggy and rainy and could not see much. This is to be expected in this area. If I’ve had more time, I would have rebooked for a sunny day. Keith, the tour guy was very knowledgeable of the area and did his best to cheer things up. I particularly enjoyed the info about the history surrounding WW2 and the part St. John’s played. A big thank you to Keith for making a stop at a drugstore to allow me to buy some anti acid medication. Much much appreciated, as it made my journey back home much more tolerable.
It sounds like the weather didn’t fully cooperate, and I’m sorry that limited how much you were able to see during the excursion 🌧️
Wonderful day with our driver/ tour guide Keith. His enthusiasm and obvious pride in his home town made this a memorable experience. Keith showed us many areas and sites not listed in the tour description, but very interesting. Thank you Keith for making our day in St. John’s a day we won’t forget.
Quidi Vidi is an ok site but overrated in my opinion. Signal Hill is worth the climb especially if you have a tour guide who has given you the background to the history of the area.
