“Seeing a river flow in reverse was unbelievable, and I'm grateful we experienced it ourselves. Our guide, Steve, utilized his local knowledge to maximize our time on this extensive tour of St John and the Bay of Fundy. He even shared a photo of himself with Prince Charles from a Canadian tour. With his white beard and festive attire, he also takes on the role of Santa Claus during Christmas. Our adventure began and ended at the Reversing Falls, where we first saw the River St John flowing normally, and then experienced the incredible tidal flow of the Bay of Fundy pushing the river upstream as the grand finale. The tour included various photo opportunities around the bay, and one highlight was enjoying a Lobster Roll and a Moosehead beer at the Caves Restaurant, topped off with ice cream from the aptly named Octopus Ice Cream shop. It was a memorable day, and we left with many cherished memories. Thank you, Steve.”— X4541JKstephenw
