Exciting finds in Newfoundland |
Canada’s newest province is unlike anywhere else on earth. Hiking is excellent. Photography, superb. Wildlife and scenery, striking. And the hospitality, sublime. Visit the restored Viking habitation at L’Anse aux Meadows (above) at the northern tip of Newfoundland. This is the only authenticated Norse archeological site in all of North America. Here the Viking settlement, first discovered in the 1960s has been reconstructed. A fabulous interpretation centre and wonderful guides in period costume bring Viking history to life.
For a different perspective.... Explore Newfoundland at its most authentic: by sea! Daily excursions explore the island’s hidden treasures. Local guides will have you wanting to stay.
Newfoundland is famous for fishing music, poetry, storytelling, folk art—and amazingly welcoming people. At every stop along the way, local people share their own special relationship with their island home.
Travel with experienced Newfoundland staff who delight in telling their stories. They will introduce you to authentic Newfoundland music and arts and share the history of the salt cod fishery that dominated Newfoundland for five centuries.
Get a taste of Europe on the French island of Saint-Pierre. For many people, the island of Saint-Pierre is a bucket-list item. Just off the coast of Newfoundland, Saint-Pierre and Miquelon remains a French overseas territory. The last of France’s colonial presence in North America, Saint-Pierre offers wonderful shopping, fine wine and cheeses, quirky cafes, and fine dining.
Hike the spectacular Tablelands at Gros Morne National Park. Geology rules at Gros Morne, where the Earth’s mantle actually protrudes through the crust to form the unique mountainous formations of the Tablelands. Learn the unique natural history from experienced naturalists. See the desert-like landscape dominated by peridotite, where few things can grow |
