Itinerary
Day 1 - Welcome to Corner Brook!
Arrive in Corner Brook and check in for your first night in Newfoundland and Labrador.
Day 2 - Corner Brook to Port Au Choix
Corner Brook - Port au Choix. This morning, meet your tour guide and fellow travellers at the hotel before travelling through Gros Morne National Park, which we will explore more thoroughly later in our tour.
Our destination today is the fishing community of Port au Choix, where we will learn about the ancient cultures that have inhabited the Port au Choix Peninsula. This area, which juts slightly into the Gulf of St. Lawrence on Newfoundland’s northwest coast, has been home to people for 5,500 years.
Day 3 - Port au Choix to L'Anse au Clair
Port au Choix - L'Anse au Clair. We board the ferry from St. Barbe across the Strait of Belle Isle to reach Labrador this morning. Our next stop is Red Bay National Historic Site, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where the Basques operated a whaling station in the 16th century. We're spending the night in Labrador.
Day 4 - L'Ãnse au Clair to St. Anthony
L'Anse au Clair - St Anthony. We return to Newfoundland and travel to L’Anse aux Meadows National Historic Site, the first cultural discovery in the world to be recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here, we will learn about the Vikings who roamed this area over a thousand years ago. After our visit, we will proceed to our accommodation in St. Anthony for the night.
Day 5 - St. Anthony whale watching
St Anthony - Cow Head. We begin our day with a morning whale-watching boat tour off the coast of St. Anthony (weather permitting). We will enjoy wonderful views of the coastline and hope to spot species including minke whales, humpbacks and white-sided dolphins.
Afterwards, we will head to Cow Head in Gros Morne National Park, where we will stay for two nights. The months of June and early July offer the best opportunities to see icebergs as large as the Titanic!
Day 6 - Exploring Gros Morne
Today we are exploring UNESCO-listed Gros Morne National Park, beginning with a scenic boat tour on Bonne Bay. We’ll be on the lookout for bald eagles that are frequently spotted near the deep waters of the fjord.
Additionally, we will visit the Tablelands, an impressive flat-topped mountain made of rock typically found deep within the Earth’s mantle, which offers a truly awe-inspiring sight. Today promises to be unforgettable, as many believe the scenery in Gros Morne is unparalleled in Eastern Canada. We spend a second night in Cow Head.
Please note: You may request when booking that instead of today's included Bonne Bay boat tour and Tablelands visit, you take a scenic boat tour on Western Brook Pond and visit the Broom Point Fishing Premises instead. There is a 45-minute walk (3 km/2 miles) from the parking lot to the dock and a 45-minute walk back. This option must be requested on booking.
Day 7 - Cow Head to Deer Lake
Cow Head - Deer Lake. Have your camera at the ready as we enjoy our final drive through Gros Morne National Park. You will be dropped at Deer Lake regional airport, where our tour concludes.
Our tour is expected to return to Deer Lake at approximately 11:30, so we recommend scheduling your departure flight no earlier than 13:30.
