Historic Downtown St. John's Self-Guided Audio Walking Tour

Great Tour, Great App

My husband and I used this walking tour during a recent cruise stop in St. John’s. We have used various walking tours in the past and we found this app and narration both to be well- done. The app is easy to use and the tutorial was super helpful. We downloaded everything the night before and could start anytime. Some other walking tours expire in 24-hours, but not with this company. The auto-start narration with GPS worked most of the time. Mine had a problem repeating the previous talk at a few stops, but it was easy to make it change to the right one. The stops were interesting and the tour went in a logical order, getting up to higher elevation early and then working down toward the harbor. I saw in another review someone commented about going to the “rough part of town” due to some unhoused people in tents making them nervous. We saw the same thing, but it was literally just two tents in a park near “The Room” museum. It was not at all unsafe or “dodgey.” If being in the vicinity of unhoused people is for some reason frightening to you, just skip walking to that place. The Rooms Museum was the “turn around” point at the upper part of the tour. If you decided to skip it you would save some steps. At one point there was an optional side trip of 800 meters on Water street that we decided to skip. I regretted it later because the post office was right there and I needed something from the post office.

St. John's Guided Walking Tour

Very good

Very good. A beautiful way to visit the city quickly and to deepen the understanding of the history of Newfoundland and St. John's.

Historic St. John's Private Walking Tour

A day to remember in St. John’s

It was a delight to experience St. John’s Newfoundland through the eyes of someone who grew up there! We were interested in the history of the Irish community there and her Irish family has been there for generations. She shared stories and showed us the historical highlights from Signal Hill to Cape Spear and beyond. Cathy was incredibly caring about my husband’s mobility challenges and we could not have been a better hands. It was a day to remember!
