You'll have an opportunity to do some bird watching at the saltwater marsh and view the beautiful Lepreau Falls during the 1 1/2 hour ride from Saint John to St. Andrews. A bit of old New England awaits as you explore the shops on Water Street. You can visit the Huntsman Marine Science Centre and enjoy the "touch tank," or visit Kingsbrae Gardens. We will provide you with a lunch voucher to enjoy at one of St. Andrews' local restaurants.

The scheduled departure times from Saint John (8:00 am) and St. Andrews (4:00 pm) are designed to allow you to enjoy all that St. Andrews has to offer, including booking a whale-watching tour if you choose. Tour information can be found at Quoddy Link Marine, Fundy Tide Runners, Jolly Breeze or Island Quest Marine. Tours vary in price and length.
