Conception Bay Tour Experience
Overview
Let’s take a drive and visit the many pretty outport communities that sprinkle the shores of Conception Bay; a region teeming with amazing stories about ancient pirates, WW2 submarine attacks, the dawn of transatlantic aviation, arctic exploration, and North America’s first European colony. This is a true Newfoundland experience that everyone who comes from away will embrace. Great times, great people, and great food await.
*Please Note: The lunch is soup, with fish cakes, and a dessert. If you have any dietary restrictions please let us know and we will accommodate you*

PICKUP TIMES START PRIOR TO TOUR START TIME. PLEASE LOOK FOR YOUR PICKUP TIME BELOW AND SELECT YOUR PICKUP LOCATION. OTHERWISE WE WILL NOT PICK YOU UPPLEASE NOTE WE ARE IN NEWFOUNDLAND NOT NEW BRUNSWICK. St. John New Brunswick is a different town which is roughly 1000 KM away.Pickup time depends on the location of pickup. We pick up prior to the listed departure time, a set amount of time- see list below.As an example of how this works, for a 9:30 tour, if the hotel listed says "30 minutes prior to departure," that means we should be there to pick you up right around 9:00 am. We will pick you up just outside of the lobby of each of the hotels unless otherwise specified.ALT Hotel – 15 minutes prior to tour departureBannerman Park Suites – 20 minutes prior to tour departureBest Western – 45 minutes prior to tour departureCapital Hotel - 45 minutes prior to tour departureComfort Inn - 45 minutes prior to tour departureCompton House - 10 minutes prior to tour departureCourtyard by Marriott - 20 minutes prior to tour departureDelta - 10 minutes prior to tour departure *Pickup from Lower Lobby*DoubleTree - 20 minutes prior to tour departure *Pickup from Lower Lobby*Duckworth Hotel – 15 minutes prior to tour departureExtended Stay - 5 minutes prior to tour departureFairfield Inn - 45 minutes prior to tour departureFranklin Hotel - 15 minutes prior to tour departureGower Guest House – 15 minutes prior to tour departureHampton Inn and Suites - 45 minutes prior to tour departureHilton Garden Inn - 10 minutes prior to tour departureHoliday Inn Express - 45 minutes prior to tour departureHoliday Inn Portugal Cove Road - 40 minutes prior to tour departureHomeport Hotel – 40 minutes prior to tour departureHometel on Signal Hill - 25 minutes prior to tour departureJag Hotel - 10 minutes prior to tour departureLeaside Manor - 5 minutes prior to tour departureMallard Cottage – 25 minutes prior to tour departureMemorial University (MacPherson College) - 30 minutes prior to tour departureMonastery Spa and Suites – 5 minutes prior to tour departureMurray Premises - 15 minutes prior to tour departureNarrows B&B - 15 minutes prior to tour departurePippy Park (Main Entrance) - 30 minutes prior to tour departureRamada - 45 minutes prior to tour departureSandman Signature – 45 minutes prior to tour departureSheraton Hotel - 20 minutes prior to tour departureSuper 8 Hotel - 40 minutes prior to tour departureThe Roses B&B - 20 minutes prior to tour departureThe Rooms - 30 minutes prior to tour departureVisitor Information Centre - 15 minutes prior to tour departure
