Lady likes a trip - George was a blast!! Using humor and education made our 4 hours fly by! Lunch was fabulous …and I don’t eat fish but I did at this place. Love the family vibe and island friendliness. This was the highlight of our trip! Thanks, George!

What a great day out! - We had a wonderful tour in and around St John’s with George. He demonstrated lots of local knowledge and passion for his craft. He gave us terrific recommendations and we enjoyed eating and drinking well in many of his suggested spots. Thank you for making our first trip to NL so memorable!

Highly recommend this tour - Thanks to our driver, Larry, we had a fabulous day seeing the sights around St. John's. (It didn't hurt that the weather was absolutely perfect!). Larry didn't rush us as we toured the important places near St. John's (Quidi Vidi, Cape Spear, Signal Hill, etc.) Lunch at a local dining spot serving up fish and chips - delicious! If the weather isn't great, bring a rain jacket/wind breaker as it is usually quite windy and cool, especially at this time of year.

An intro not to be missed - poetic! - George with his fantastic career in acting; a musician & story telling brings all to the table making our tour experience with him amazing! He showcases St. John’s and the Avalon area with rich historical detail, local introductions and fish & chips to die for.

Brilliant theatrical performance. - George is the best tour guide ever. He was very knowledgable of the area, took us to places other tours don’t include. George has been an actor and his tour was a great theatrical experience.

George - George was amazing! Warm, welcoming, knowledgeable, very very interesting, musical, and pointed out so many interesting things, and made great suggestions for us to continue our NFLD adventures. He took us to 'By the Beach' in Portugal Cove for a delicious fresh fish & chip lunch. Sherri made us feel like we were in her own kitchen. George even answered a few questions questions from people not even on our tour. If you're in the St. John's area, contact George for a memorable and unforgettable experience. He'll even pick up up and drop you off. Thank you so much George! Jo-Anne Love & Cousin Diana Ontario Sept. 14, 2025

Not to be trusted - We booked a year in advance (and paid in full) for a private tour for 6 people. His tour says there is a maximum of 6 people and his website also says maximum of 6. About an hour prior to the start of the tour George sent me an email saying that the tour had grown and he would now be using a coach. I called him and he told me that there would now be 27 people on our private 6 person tour. I told him that I wanted to cancel and he offered a refund, which he did ultimately pay. However, this whole thing was so unprofessional. He had plenty of opportunities to let me know that he had voided our contract and changed the terms. I would have then had the opportunity to make different arrangements. I would advise people to avoid doing business with him. He may provide a great tour but can't be trusted to uphold the terms of any arrangements that you make with him, especially if he can make more money doing a ship's excursion. Apparently, money trumps integrity.
