Close up and personal with one of my favourite seabirds. The colourful and entertaining, Atlantic Puffin.

Canada's oldest settled city boasts age old traditions, colourful heritage homes, fabulous music and culture. Inhabited by equally wonderful and colourful people!

The Atlantic Puffins make their way back to Newfoundland each summer and delight visitors from near and far. Comical and colourful, these tiny sea birds burrow holes on rocky little islands off Newfoundland where they lay their eggs to protect them from predators. Enjoy watching their courting and mating habits, called billing, where they rub beaks together and generally draw a crowd of puffin spectators. Their colourful beaks, tiny stature and quick comical movements are a delight for both young and old. The best places to see puffins are: the Bonavista Peninsula, Witless Bay Wildllife reserve and Cape St Mary's Ecological reserve. Elliston is one of my favourite viewing spots for close encounters from land. However, a boat ride from Bay Bulls, is also a treat for viewing another busy colony while you watch them skip over the water next to your boat. Watch them fly around you and perhaps over a whale! Wherever you go, they will never disappoint but leave you with a delighted happy grin on your face.

A city rich in history, music, folklore, colourful homes and friendly people. Here is a tour through the seasons of the first English-speaking British colony in North America and the last province to join Canada. It is here where Marconi received the first transatlantic wireless signal from an antenna flown by a kite near the popular Cabot Tower on Signal Hill. A place full of stories of haunted streets, secret passage ways, city fires, and historic battles. A popular location for TV and movies with its epic scenery and colourful historic homes. Enjoy the tour.
