Itinerary
Day 1 : St John’s
Upon your arrival in St John’s, you will be met and transferred to your hotel.
Day 2 : St John’s
Become acquainted with the city of St. John’s and its surroundings, including Cape Spear, the most Easterly point in North America. This is the oldest colonized region in the new world and your local guide will regale you with its steeped history, legends & lore – all flavoured with personal anecdotes and good humour for which Newfoundlanders are so famous.
Enjoy the brilliant vistas from Cabot Tower and Signal Hill, one of the most recognizable skylines in Canada. Walk through a cliffside World War II gun battery, watch for whales and seabirds, and visit the oldest standing lighthouse in North America. Other stops include Quidi Vidi Village, Jellybean Row, Government House, the Roman Catholic Basilica, and an orientation of the shops and restaurants of the downtown core.

Transfer today to the airport for your flight to Gander (own arrangements).
Upon arrival, you will enjoy a 30 minute helicopter flight to Fogo Island. Set amongst the rugged landscape on the ancient rocks of the Back Western Shore, Fogo Island Inn stands out like a beacon in the rocks and offers a sense of hospitality and welcome that only a tiny island can. By bringing together a rich culture, history, and people, the inn offers an experience unlike any other.
Days 4 – 5 : Fogo Island Inn
Fogo Island is big and small – big enough to be interesting, yet small enough to get to know. Activities at the inn vary from season to season, but some can be enjoyed year-round.
